Nutrigenomics testing and interpretation

What is Nutrigenomics?

Nutrigenomics is the study of how our genes interact with the food we eat and how nutrients affect gene expression. With Nutrigenomics testing, we can analyse specific genes related to nutrient metabolism, detoxification, hormones, nervous system, methylation, metabolic function and other key areas of health to gain insights into how diet and lifestyle choices may impact our health.

Through this service, we can provide personalised recommendations for dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and targeted supplement protocols based on the individual's genetic profile. This allows for a more individualised and precise approach to healthcare that can help optimise health outcomes and prevent chronic diseases.

How do I get started?

Getting started is easy!

You will be asked to complete some forms to give us an understanding of your history, any diagnosed medical conditions, any symptoms and your health goals. You will then be sent a kit in the post to enable you to provide a DNA sample through a simple cheek swab test. We agree in advance which genetic panels would be most beneficial and meaningful according to your health issues and goals. The sample is then analysed by Lifecode Gx, a certified laboratory, and the results are interpreted by one of the team.

We will provide you with a comprehensive report of your genetic profile, along with tailored recommendations for diet and lifestyle modifications to help you optimise your health outcomes.

Who can benefit from Nutrigenomics testing?

Overall, Nutrigenomics testing and interpretation can be an incredibly valuable tool for anyone looking to improve their health and prevent chronic diseases. By taking a personalised and precision-based approach, we can identify potential health risks early on and work to optimise health outcomes through tailored dietary and lifestyle interventions. 

In particular, Nutrigenomics can be helpful with the following:

What is the cost?

The cost of the Nutrigenomics service is £499, which includes:

• DNA test

• One panel of choice - choose from Nutrient Core, Methylation, Nervous system, Metabolic, Hormones, Histamine, Metabolic function or Thyroid

• Full analysis and interpretation (60 min Zoom session)

• Written report with recommendations

Follow up sessions may be requested to monitor progress at an additional cost.

Additional panels may be added on for £250 per panel and interpretation (including a 30 min Zoom session). Additional panels ordered within 3 months of the initial DNA test incur no additional costs for further samples.
