DNA Core - Genetic Testing

$1,200

DNA Core is the starting point on your journey to personalised healthcare. This test reports on gene-environment interactions and provides personalised, easy-to-follow, summarised recommendations on four core areas:

  1. key biological processes that drive health including methylation, detoxification and lipid metabolism

  2. macro- and micronutrient requirements based on genetic response

  3. weight management insights such as obesity risk and eating behaviour

  4. exercise responsiveness including power and endurance potential, and recovery time.

The Test Covers 4 Key Areas.

  1. Key biological processes that impact health and risk for disease including lipid metabolism, methylation, detoxification, inflammation and oxidative stress, insulin sensitivity, and bone health

  2. Macro and micro-nutrient requirements based on genetic responsiveness, as well as risks for food sensitivities (caffeine and salt) and intolerances (gluten and lactose)

  3. Weight management insights such as genetic obesity risk, snacking and eating behaviour, and circadian rhythms

  4. Exercise responsiveness including exercise requirements for mobilisation of fat stores, power and endurance potential, cramping and injury risk, and recovery time

Who is the test for?

DNACore is useful for anyone where understanding the genetic foundations of their health challenges will enable a more personalized intervention. The test provides specific tailor-made recommendations for the core components of any health strategy: weight management, exercise strategies, targeted diet and lifestyle interventions and appropriate nutraceuticals required to support and optimize your everyday functioning. Implementing these core components allows for improved longevity and decreased risk of chronic disease.

What insights does it provide?

DNA Core reports on gene SNPs where there is a significant body of peer-reviewed research into the relationship between those genes and effective nutritional or lifestyle interventions. The report provides guidance both on what the SNP variations might mean for the patient’s health, as well as on which interventions are most likely to be effective.
