Nutrigenomics Testing

Nutrigenomics Testing

The future for health and medicine as it’s personalised nutrition at it’s best!

I offer LifeCode GX Nutrigenomics testing on key areas of health, having completed their practitioner training in 2022.

Nutrigenomics is the science that combines nutrition and genomics and how specific genes interact with our diet and lifestyle choices and the impact this can have on our health and wellbeing.

We are all born with a unique ‘blue-print’ DNA genetic code. This information will never change throughout your lifetime and is key to optimising your health and promoting longevity.

By carrying out a simple cheek swab test you will discover your own genetic strengths and weaknesses and how your body responds to and metabolises certain nutrients and what influence this can have on your health and wellbeing.

I will interpret your Lifecode GX report and create a unique nutrition and lifestyle plan that is personalised to you.

  • This test analyses how gene variants can affect food tolerance (and intolerance), appetite control and blood sugar balance, vitamin and mineral needs, detoxification ability, and susceptibility to inflammation and infection.

    Nutrient Core will help you understand the fundamental genetic interactions with diet and lifestyle and indicate whether specific functions require further genetic testing. It includes genes that have been shown to affect:

    • food response - gluten (coeliac) and lactose intolerance

    • caffeine - sensitivity and metabolism

    • microbiome - diversity

    • vitamin need - vitamins A, B9 (folate), B12 (cobalamin), C, D and K

    • blood pressure - sodium-potassium balance & salt sensitive hypertension

    • detoxification - glutathione

    • metabolism - blood sugar control (insulin), appetite (leptin)

    • inflammation - specific (infection response) and systemic

    • circadian rhythm - early bird or night owl predisposition

    Genes Included

    Food Response: HLA-DQA1, HLA-DQB1 and LCT
