DNA Health Test

Understanding your genetic makeup can help you make smarter decisions and more effective solutions to optimize your health and achieve your goals. 

We are all unique individuals who need unique measures to maintain our health. With the help of DNA tests, we can better understand how we respond to different diets, lifestyle choices, and supplements (nutrigenetics).

We are born with a set of genes that we cannot change during our lifetime. However, we can influence the way in which these genes are expressed. There is a close relationship between the genes we carry and the choices we make in terms of nutrition, medication and lifestyle.

What is tested?

Genes are sections of DNA that contain the instructions your body needs to make each of the many thousands of proteins necessary for life. Each gene is made up of thousands of letter combinations (called nucleotides) that form the genetic code. The code contains the instructions for making all that is needed for the optimal functioning of cells, organs, and body parts.

What are gene variations?

With the exception of identical twins, all humans have small differences (variations) in their genetic code. These differences make each of us unique. Just as a single letter can fundamentally change the meaning of a word, so too can single nucleotide changes fundamentally affect the function of our genes.

What does nutrigenetics mean?

Genetic variations can affect the expression of a gene and thereby influence metabolic processes that are essential for maintaining cellular health. They also influence an individual's response to environmental factors such as diet, lifestyle, supplements, and exercise.

DNA Health includes relevant genes for the following areas:

Cholesterol metabolism | Bone health Methylation | Inflammation | Oxidative stress Insulin resistance | Detoxification | Reaction to food (such as sensitivity to lactose, caffeine & salt consumption)

This is included in the price of your selection “DNA Health Test”:

The DNA Health includes a partial genome analysis and provides information on relevant genes that influence the following areas: lipid metabolism, bone health, methylation, insulin sensitivity, detoxification, inflammation and oxidative stress, vitamin requirements, gluten and lactose intolerance, caffeine metabolism, salt sensitivity and iron overload.
