360 Hormone Health

This report delves into genetic variations impacting nutrient metabolism, offering insights into personalised dietary needs. It identifies genes influencing the absorption, utilisation, and metabolism of essential vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients. By understanding these genetic predispositions, individuals can tailor their diet to optimise nutrient intake and prevent deficiencies. The report provides actionable recommendations for supplementing specific nutrients based on genetic insights, promoting overall health and well-being through targeted nutritional support.

Genes Tested for: Food Response, Caffeine, Microbiome, Vitamins, Blood Pressure, Detoxification, Metabolism, Inflammation and Circadian Rhythm.

 Analyses genes involved in the regulation, synthesis, signalling, transport and metabolism of corticosteroids and sex steroids hormones. Recommended for men and women with hormone imbalance symptoms such as the ones listed. Symptoms of steroid hormone imbalance include: infertility, low libido and sex drive, low sperm count, acne, excess facial hair in women, PCOS, blood clots, mood swings, depression, substance misuse, poor memory, weight gain (belly fat for men), breast appearances in men, and hormone sensitive cancers, such as breast cancer or prostate cancer. 

Genes Tested for: Steroid Hormones, Oestrogen and Detoxification

Deficiency or excess of thyroid hormones can result in many different symptoms. Thyroid hormones have wide-ranging effects: Hypothyroidism (under activity) can cause weight gain, fatigue, low libido, cold intolerance, dry skin, constipation and depression; and Hyperthyroidism (over activity) symptoms include anxiety, heat intolerance, heart palpitations, insomnia and weight loss. It also examines genes that confer susceptibility to inflammation and autoimmunity.

Genes Tested for: Autoimmune, Inflammation, Transport, Activation and Metabolism.

The nervous system supports the transmission of messages around the mind and body, enabling an individual to respond to their environment. Symptoms of neurotransmitter imbalance can include; mood imbalances, depression, mania, attention deficit and obsessive-compulsive disorders, addictive behaviours, motor control disruption, anger, aggression and restlessness. The report provides detailed recommendations for nutritional support to alleviate symptoms and optimise mental health. 

Genes Tested for: Serotonin, Kynurenic Acid, Melatonin, Dopamine, Adrenergic and Cannabinoid.

The Detoxification Report examines genetic variations impacting detoxification pathways, offering insights into individual detoxification capacity and susceptibility to environmental toxins. It analyses genes involved in phase I and phase II detoxification processes, providing personalised recommendations for supporting liver function and enhancing toxin elimination. By understanding genetic predispositions, individuals can implement targeted dietary and lifestyle strategies to optimise detoxification pathways, reduce toxic burden, and promote overall health and well-being. The report empowers individuals to take proactive steps towards detoxification optimization, supporting long-term health outcomes. 

Genes Tested for: Alcohol, Pesticides, ROS, Glucuronidation, Methylation, Sulphonation, Acetylation, Glutathione and Antiporter.

You’ll receive a detailed analysis of your reports with Deborah a registered nutrigenomics specialist. She will carefully explain what your results mean and recommend nutrition and lifestyle interventions as well as answer any questions you may have.

NOTE: We do not provide written guidance during this analysis call, so you should prepare to make notes whilst you speak to the practitioner. You may record (on zoom with prior practitioner permission). 

This session focuses solely on the results of your DNA report. Any health related matters why the test was conducted should be provided in the client onboarding form to ensure that any specific health concerns can be covered as part of the review.

To collect a sample of cheek cells from which DNA is extracted and analysed. It takes just 1 minute to collect the sample (the only requirement is to abstain from eating/drinking for at least 1 hour before testing), place the swab in the test tube with the stabilising tablet, complete and sign the consent form and place everything in the return packaging provided. 

The test is not impacted by HRT, contraceptives, pregnancy, nutritional supplements, exercise or any other environmental factors.
