DNA Life Tests

DNA Life Tests

The DNA Life tests include two of the following DNA tests used to identifying genetic variants that impact one’s health as well as specific dietary, lifestyle, and nutraceutical recommendations used to offset the effect of the gene in question:

  • DNA Health
    • The DNA Health test identifies genetic variations and genetic mutations that are known to have a significant effect on health and susceptibility to chronic diseases such as osteoporosis, cancer, neural tube defects, cardiovascular disease, and diabetes, amongst others. Nutrigenomics research has shown that individualized diet and lifestyle choices can have a significant effect on the expression of these genes, and the DNA Health test will provide dietary, lifestyle, and nutraceutical recommendations for each individual gene of concern.
  • DNA Diet
    • The DNA Diet test identifies genes that have associations with body weight and body mass index, as well as which type of diet works best for the individual’s genetic makeup. The results will show which of the following diet plans are right for the individual’s genetics: Low carbohydrate diet; Low fat diet; Mediterranean diet. Recent clinical data suggests that diets that are tailored to an individual’s genetics results in better compliance, longer-term BMI reduction, and improvements in blood glucose levels. 
  • DNA Mind
    • The DNA Mind test identifies genetic variations and mutations that contribute to the risk of developing mental health disorders. This test will identify genes associated with mental health disorders and will provide dietary, lifestyle, and nutraceutical treatments and/or prevention strategies. 
  • DNA Estrogen
    • The DNA Estrogen test identifies gene variants that impact how estrogen is metabolized. This test provides useful dietary, lifestyle, and neutraceutical recommendations for individuals with a genetic risk of poor estrogen detoxification and oxidative stress. The DNA estrogen test is useful for individuals with estrogen-dominant conditions such as endometriosis, premenstrual syndrome, fibrocystic breasts, and uterine fibroid tumors, while also lessening the individual’s risk of developing breast cancer.
  • DNA Sport
    • The DNA Sport test identifies genetic variants that influence the risk of injury, recovery, as well as power and endurance performance. The results provide insight into various biological areas that impact training responsiveness, sport performance, optimal exercise selection, and injury and recovery strategies. The test is suitable for the elite performance athlete and recreational athletes looking to maximize their fitness potential and reach optimal performance.
  • DNA Skin
    • The DNA Skin test identifies genetic variants that determine firmness and elasticity, sun sensitivity and pigmentation, sun damage and repair, antioxidant status, and inflammation. All of the genetic variants analyzed in the DNA Skin test are modifiable through appropriate lifestyle interventions. The DNA Skin test provides personalized recommendations for improved skincare and skin health, and to decrease the visible signs of aging.

We recommend patients select the DNA Health test along with one additional DNA test of their choice:

  • DNA Diet
  • DNA Mind
  • DNA Estrogen
  • DNA Sport
