What is DNA Testing?

DNA Health is designed to identify any potential lifestyle diseases and to optimise your well-being and health by personalising your lifestyle and diet choices.

We test for 36 gene variants to identify any precursors to lifestyle diseases such as:Cholesterol metabolism and risk for heart disease | Bone Health & risk for osteoporosis | Methylation and B Vitamin requirements | Detoxification, inflammation and oxidative stress | Insulin Sensitivity and risk for diabetes | Food Responsiveness; lactose intolerance, caffeine processing, salt sensitivity, and blood pressure and iron overload disorders.

What Does DNALYSIS ENTAIL?

Diet

Weight management and healthy eating are integral to long-term health and can prevent poor health and various chronic diseases. There is no one diet or way of eating that is correct for everyone, but DNA Diet will identify the best choices for you.

DNA Diet tests several gene variations that impact metabolism, absorption and storage of fats and carbohydrates, as well as eating behaviour to understand how your genetic profile will impact your response to our most effective healthy eating plans.

Nutrigenomics

We provide healthcare practitioners with an unparalleled depth of insight into your personal dietary needs through the study of the interaction between nutrition and your genes. We see how this effects your overall health, sports performance and recovery, skin and mind.

Sport

The effectiveness of training and sporting performance is affected by key biological areas, and with DNA Sport, we can help personalise a training strategy that optimises your genetic potential, and identify the right lifestyle, nutrition and environmental interactions to optimally express your genetic potential.

Ultimately, DNA Sport can determine the best way to maximise sporting potential, prevent injury and optimise recovery to reach peak levels of conditioning.

Skin

The DNA Skin test can help you mitigate destructive exposure to UV rays by testing 19 gene variations in the following areas:

firmness and elasticity | sun sensitivity and damage, pigmentation, protection and repair | antioxidant status and inflammation

We recommend personalised lifestyle, nutrition, nutraceutical and cosmeceutical choices for improved skin care and to decrease the visible signs of ageing. We test for 36 gene variants to identify any precursors to lifestyle diseases such as:

Cholesterol metabolism and risk for heart disease | Bone Health & risk for osteoporosis | Methylation and B Vitamin requirements | Detoxification, inflammation and oxidative stress | Insulin Sensitivity and risk for diabetes | Food Responsiveness; lactose intolerance, caffeine processing, salt sensitivity, and blood pressure and iron overload disorders.

Oestrogen

The majority of breast cancer occurs in women with no family history of it, but oestrogen gene testing can assist in identifying at-risk individuals and thereby lessen the risk of undetected cancers. Research shows that an increased lifetime exposure to oestrogen is a strong risk factor in the development of breast cancer.

The DNA Oestrogen test guides the personalisation of diet, hormone and nutritional supplement recommendations to improve oestrogen metabolism.

Mind

We analyse 30 genes which have been shown to have significant associations with key mental health disorders. Taking this test may help you understand how to avoid the onset of a range of neurological disorders in the following areas:

neurodegenerative disorders | addictive behaviour | adrenaline-seeking | mood regulation

The DNA Oestrogen test guides the personalisation of diet, hormone and nutritional supplement recommendations to improve oestrogen metabolism.

Hair Loss

This is done using a test called TrichoTest, developed by Fagron. 

TrichoTest™ provides personalized treatments for scalp and hair issues like Androgenetic Alopecia, Alopecia Areata, and Telogen Effluvium. It uses genetic data and patient history to choose the best topical, oral, and mesotherapy options.

The test analyses 26 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)
associated with 9 categories

  • Prostaglandins and sulphotransferase
  • Anti-inflammatories drugs
  • Anti-androgens
  • Stimulation of circulation
  • Collagen synthesis
  • Insulin-like growth factor
  • Vitamins
  • Minerals
  • Antioxidants

Acne

This is done using a test called AcneTest, developed by Fagron.

AcneTest analyses 60 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)
in genes related to:

  • Sebum production
  • Pigmentation
  • Inflammation
  • Hormone conversion
  • Scar tissue formation
  • Metabolic rate
  • Response to drugs
  • Response to nutritional approach

Associated with 5 main categories of treatment options for Acne:

  • Acne predisposition
  • Skin condition and inflammation
  • Nutritional approach
  • Pharmacogenetics
  • Hormonal approach
