Optimize your nutrition with a simple mouth swab. Genetic changes can influence how well the body absorbs, breaks down and uses vitamins and minerals, which is why there is no “perfect diet” that will meet the nutritional needs of every individual. This test detects genetic variants linked to vitamin and mineral utilization. You will receive a comprehensive report with the variants analyzed, recommended daily intake for these nutrients as well as suggested sources of food that can be incorporated into your diet. Whether you want to ensure that you are eating a balanced diet or are looking to select an appropriate nutrition supplement regime this test can guide you with your choices.
This test detects genetic variants linked to the intake of 9 vitamin and minerals.
• BCO1 – affects activation of vitamin A
• NBPF3 – increases clearance of vitamin B6 from the body
• FUT2 – reduces absorption of vitamin B12 in the gut
• SLC23A1 – decreases vitamin C absorption and distribution
• CYP2R1 – reduces activation of vitamin D
• GC – reduces efficiency of vitamin D transport and uptake
• APOA5 – influences vitamin E levels
• MTHFD1 – linked to folate-related disorders
• MTHFR – affects activation of folate
• TMPRSS6 – influences iron absorption from the diet
• TF – influences iron transport
• NOS3 – influences triglyceride levels when omega-3 is low
Everyone has a unique genetic profile, and we all require a slightly different diet to get enough energy, to maintain a healthy body weight and to reduce our risk of disease. Nutritional deficiencies can cause a number of health issues, including:
• Weight gain
• Vision problems
• Fatigue
• Cardiovascular problems
• Depression & mood swings
• Skin problems
• Digestive problems
• Diminished immunity
• Osteoporosis & osteoarthritis
