Do I Need a DNA Test Before Using Your Functional Foods?
No — you don’t need a DNA test for functional nutrition to benefit from our products. Our formulas are designed to support key biological systems — inflammation, detox, oxidative stress, iron metabolism — that affect everyone.
However, if you want a personalized layer of insight, our “Test for Your Genes™” DNA kits can help you match functional foods to your unique genetic blueprint. It’s not essential — but it’s incredibly empowering.
When DNA Testing Can Enhance Your Functional Plan
- If you’re not responding to general nutrition: DNA insights can reveal hidden gene-nutrient mismatches.
- If you want to prevent long-term issues: Know your vulnerabilities in oxidative stress, detox, and fat metabolism.
- If you want precision dosing: Adjust vitamin D3, B12, or curcumin based on absorption and methylation SNPs.
- If you’re working with a clinician: Our reports are clinically actionable and come with gene-nutrient maps.
Our DNA test for functional nutrition is about clarity — not necessity.
What Research Tells Us
- Personalized nutrition based on DNA improves adherence and outcomes compared to generic plans 1.
- Key nutrigenomic pathways (e.g., GST, SOD2, MTHFR) impact nutrient utilization and detoxification 2.
- Even without genetic testing, polyphenol-rich foods show universal benefit in inflammation, cognition, and metabolic balance 3.
Summary: Genes Add Precision, Food Delivers Results
Whether or not you test, our functional foods work. But if you want to unlock full personalization, a DNA test for functional nutrition adds clarity to your food strategy.
Tip: Start with food. Layer in your DNA when you’re ready to go deeper.
