NUTRIENT CORE
Nutrient Core Report:
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.
Metals & Minerals
Metals & Minerals Report
This analysis explores how genetic variations affect the absorption, distribution, and excretion of essential metals and minerals, helping us understand how your body maintains balance or is prone to imbalances that can impact health. Unlike vitamins, minerals are inorganic elements from rocks, soil, and water, crucial for functions like bone structure, pH balance, nerve conduction, and hormonal and enzymatic support.
METABOLIC
Metabolic Report:
The Metabolics Report transforms our understanding of how genes confer metabolic individuality and underpin energy regulation, longevity and health span.
Metabolism is the chemical reactions that occur within our cells. It has two categories: anabolism builds things up and catabolism breaks things down. The balance between these processes is important for cell function and energy metabolism.
HORMONES
Hormones Report:
Steroid hormones are a group of hormones derived from cholesterol that act as chemical messengers in the body. They are involved in the regulation of many physiological processes in both men and women, such as the development and function of the reproductive system, metabolism, inflammation and immune system.
METHYLATION
Methylation Report:
Methylation is the process of adding methyl groups, consisting of one carbon and three hydrogen atoms, to other molecules. It is involved in almost every metabolic process in the body, occurring billions of times every second in our cells and contributing to numerous crucial functions.
HISTAMINE
Histamine Intolerance Report:
Histamine has many functions: as a neurotransmitter, communicating messages to and from the brain and nervous system; triggering the release of stomach acid to help digestion; and it can also be released after stress, injury or allergic reaction as part of the body’s immune response.
DETOXIFICATION
Detoxification Report:
Detoxification is the physiological removal of toxic substances from the human body. It is mainly carried out by the liver, and to a lesser extent the small intestine, kidneys and lungs. Substances such as nutrients, food additives, pesticides, medications, air pollutants, alcohol and hormones are transformed from being fat-soluble to water-soluble, allowing them to be more easily excreted from the body. The process occurs in two major phases: Phase I primes toxic molecules for deactivation and Phase II finishes the deactivation and prepares for elimination.
NERVOUS SYSTEM
Nervous System Report:
The nervous system supports the transmission of messages around the mind and body, enabling an individual to respond to their environment. A neurotransmitter is a molecule that carries signals between neurons and across nerve junctions (synapses). Excitatory neurotransmitters increase the likelihood a neuron will fire a signal, while inhibitory neurotransmitters have the opposite effect. For us to interact effectively with our environment these must remain in balance.
THYROID BALANCE
Thyroid Balance Report:
The Thyroid Balance Report examines genetic factors influencing thyroid function and hormone metabolism. It analyses genes related to thyroid hormone synthesis, metabolism, and receptor sensitivity, providing insights into thyroid health and related conditions. By understanding genetic predispositions, individuals can implement personalised strategies to support thyroid function, optimise hormone levels, and address thyroid disorders effectively. The report empowers individuals to take control of their thyroid health, promoting hormonal balance, metabolic efficiency, and overall well-being.
ATHLETE
DNA sequencing has opened the door to personalised approaches to health and fitness, enabling a more intelligent approach to training, recovery and performance. In this report, we present elements of your unique DNA profile that have been shown to affect athletic performance.
[APOE]
APOE Report:
The APOE gene provides instructions for making a protein called apolipoprotein E. This protein combines with fats (lipids) in the body to form molecules called lipoproteins. Lipoproteins are responsible for packaging cholesterol and other fats and carrying them through the bloodstream.
