Research has shown that our genes affect how we respond to our surroundings and experiences. Tiny variations can affect how our muscles form and behave, how our body uses the major food groups and whether we are likely to lack certain vitamins or minerals.
Our tests report on 1,000 biogenetic markers related to health and fitness, including:
Fitness and exercise: improve overall fitness and training plans with a better understanding of
capacity for power, endurance, flexibility, increased muscle size, lactate threshold and oxygen use (VO2 max), respiration (ATP) recovery rate, injury recovery rate, lean body mass and power to weight ratio.
Diet and nutrition: find a healthy, sustainable diet specifically designed though a better
understanding of responses to protein, total fats, unsaturated fats, carbohydrates, calorie
restriction and exercise. Our tests can also help understand daily need for calories, how to
manage weight loss and the risks of obesity and yo-yo dieting.
Health and wellbeing: overall health can be significantly improved when we understand the risks for deficiencies in vitamins A, B6, B9, B12, and D as well as minerals such as magnesium and selenium.
Our tests also highlight bone mineral density and how much calcium our body needs, as well as responses to supplements intended to help with specific issues such as inflammation and
collagen formation.
Psychology: find out more about our body’s dopamine response, which can affect behaviour,
cognition and motivation.
