DNA Health Packages

NUTRIENT CORE

Examines the key genes and variants (SNPs) involved in 15 aspects of health including: food response - to gluten, lactose intolerance and caffeine; microbiome diversity; vitamin absorption, conversion and activation; and metabolism - appetite, sugar & fat response, blood pressure, circadian rhythm and inflammation.

METHYLATION

This test focuses on methylation, a natural process that's important for everything from your immune system and fertility to your energy levels and heart health. It looks at various cycles in your body that deal with things like mood-balancing chemicals and waste removal, aiming to give you a full picture of how well these systems are working for you.

METABOLICS

To optimise metabolic health, energy and longevity. Analysing genes that influence appetite, sugar and fat metabolism, cholesterol, mitochondria and longevity.

DETOXIFICATION

Looks the genes that influence your body's detoxification process, covering three key phases. It looks at how you metabolize substances like alcohol, hormones, caffeine, and neurotransmitters, as well as how you handle pharmaceuticals and environmental toxins like pesticides, smoke, and exhaust fumes. The aim is to help you enhance your body's detox abilities and reduce the risk of imbalances.

HISTAMINE

For high histamine or allergic type symptoms - itching, sneezing, wheezing, swelling, headaches or digestive issues. Analyses the key genes and nutrients involved in histamine metabolism.

NERVOUS

Looks at the genes that play a role in your nervous system, covering everything from serotonin for happiness, melatonin for sleep, and dopamine for motivation, to cortisol for stress management. It also explores noradrenaline and adrenaline, which are linked to anxiety and stress responses, as well as GABA, essential for calm and relaxation. The goal is to help you fine-tune your nervous system health.

HORMONES

If you're a woman dealing with issues like infertility, low sex drive, acne, extra facial hair, PCOS, mood changes, or weight gain, you might have a hormone imbalance. My Hormones report dives into the genes that manage your hormone levels. It tells you how your unique genes could be affecting these imbalances and offers advice on what foods or lifestyle changes could help bring things back to normal. This test is especially useful for women going through Peri/Menopause or experiencing symptoms like those listed. This report may also be useful for men who are experience hormonal imbalance symptoms.

THYROID

(available upon request)

This test looks at the genes affecting your thyroid, which is a key player in your overall health. If your thyroid is underactive, you might experience weight gain, tiredness, and even depression. On the other hand, an overactive thyroid can lead to anxiety and weight loss among other symptoms. Understanding your genes can help pinpoint what's going on with your thyroid, so you can take steps to feel your best.

NOTE: We do not provide written guidance during this analysis call, so you should prepare to make notes whilst you speak to the practitioner.

This session focuses solely on the results of your DNA report. Due to the time constraints, we are unable include any other test results you may be waiting for.

If you have already booked a separate New Client Consultation you may want to move this to after your DNA consultation as it will give your practitioner greater insight into you, which will help them give you more comprehensive advice.
