HOW CAN A GENE TEST CONTRIBUTE TO A BETTER DIET AND LIFESTYLE?

Your health is a result of the interplay between your genes and lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, stress, smoking and alcohol consumption. Your unique genetic makeup determines which nutrients are used and how they are used, the way toxins are removed and how effective key processes are within your body. However, by adjusting your diet and lifestyle, you can have a great impact on how your genes work, and compensate for areas where your genes are not functioning optimally.

CAN DNA HEALTH TELL ME IF I AM ILL?

No, we can only determine what types of genes people have and how they relate to certain metabolic processes involved in well-being. That is why we ask you in the lifestyle questionnaire whether you are under medical supervision. If you think you may be ill, you should consult your doctor.
