What Is Nutrigenomic Testing?
Nutrigenomic testing is a type of genetic analysis that examines how your body interacts with nutrients based on your unique DNA. This testing can reveal insights into how your body metabolizes carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, as well as how you respond to exercise, stress, and certain vitamins. With this information, healthcare providers can create a more personalized nutrition and fitness plan that aligns with your genetic profile. Nutrigenomic testing can also help identify potential health risks, such as predisposition to diabetes, obesity, or heart disease, allowing you to take preventive action.
Nutrigenomic testing involves a simple cheek swab or saliva sample that is sent to a lab for DNA analysis. The results of your test will provide detailed information about specific gene variations that influence how your body processes certain nutrients and responds to lifestyle factors like diet and exercise. Based on these findings, we can recommend personalized dietary changes, supplements, and exercise programs to optimize your health. The process is quick, noninvasive, and highly informative, helping you make more informed decisions about your wellness.
