DNA Methylation Genetic Testing Kit for Health & Wellness

The myDNA Comprehensive Health Report supports practitioners to deliver holistic and preventative approaches to health. DNA is an important piece of the puzzle that can help guide behaviour change and treatment decisions. This report examines specific genetic markers offering a personalised insight to get to the root of health issues or as a proactive solution to optimize health and wellness.

What is covered:

This report has been designed by practitioners for practitioners, so it’s easy to interpret to deliver results to your patients. The test covers an extensive 92 genes, and 113 SNP’s across the following categories:

• Digestion
• Energy
• Hormones
• Stress & Cognitive Performance
• Inflammation
• Athletic Performance
• DNA Protection & Repair
• Detoxification

A genetic strength and weaknesses summary for each section helps to identify key focus areas for health so practitioners can easily see where a patient may be doing well compared to the areas of concern or where a patient could improve.

Other Features

• A personalised shopping list that highlights good sources of macro and micronutrient requirements that can be shared with patients
• Suggested blood tests to further analyses certain findings from the DNA test.

Note: DNA Privacy Policy:

Privacy is our #1 concern. We firmly believe DNA should remain the property of your patients. Their data is stored on secure, encrypted servers, can’t be used to identify them, will never be shared with unknown third parties without consent, and has no bearing on insurance policies or premiums.

“Don’t let your symptoms define your life, bio-hack them, and improve your health and the health of the whole family”. “Genetics run in families, this means the whole family can get advantages in their health with biohacking”.

The Advanced Methylation Detox Profile, also called the Genetic Methylation Health Test report, gives more actionable information than MTHFR testing alone, providing a more complete picture of your body’s methylation and detoxification. This genetic methylation test is crucial for understanding methylation, a biochemical process that regulates gene activity and other vital functions. The detailed report offers insights based on an individual’s unique methylation profile, including personalized supplement recommendations and dietary guidelines. The test uses cheek swabs to analyze essential methylation genes, covering health risks and providing a comprehensive overview.

Standard MTHFR genotyping only evaluates folic acid metabolism. Scientific research reveals that a variety of genes are involved in maintaining methionine/homocysteine balance. Genetic variations (SNPs) in these important genes influence your methylation potential. Individual methylation is monitored using homocysteine levels. Important SNPs are included to evaluate your ability to methylate neurotransmitters, DNA, and toxins.

The test covers an extensive 92 genes, and 113 SNP’s across the following categories:

• Digestion

• Energy

• Hormones

• Stress & Cognitive Performance

• Inflammation

• Athletic Performance

• DNA Protection & Repair

• Detoxification

Genetic Methylation Test: What is Methylation Testing?

Methylation testing is a sophisticated form of genetic testing, often referred to as a DNA test, that delves into an individual’s methylation patterns to uncover genetic predispositions to various health conditions. Methylation is a crucial biochemical process that acts like a switch, regulating gene activity, enzyme functions, and other vital biological mechanisms. By analyzing these patterns, methylation testing can identify genetic variations that may impact your health. This test provides personalized recommendations for diet, exercise, and lifestyle adjustments, helping you make informed decisions to optimize your well-being.

What is Methylation?

Methylation is a vital biochemical process that plays a crucial role in various bodily functions, including gene expression, enzyme activity, and hormone regulation. It is a complex process that involves the transfer of a methyl group to DNA, proteins, or other molecules, which can either activate or silence genes. Methylation is essential for maintaining proper cellular function, and imbalances in this process have been linked to various health issues, including cardiovascular disease, cognitive impairment, and cancer.

Benefits of Methylation Testing

Methylation testing offers a multitude of benefits that can significantly enhance your health and wellness journey:

• Detailed Health Insights: Gain a comprehensive health report that reveals how your genes influence key aspects of health, including cognitive performance, cardiovascular disease, gut health, and hormone balance, ultimately improving your health outcomes.

• Personalized Recommendations: Receive tailored nutrition and lifestyle advice designed to optimize your methylation pathways and reduce the risk of various health issues.

• Genetic Variation Identification: Discover genetic variations that may impact brain health, immune health, and other critical areas such as digestion, energy, hormones, and stress.

• Holistic and Preventative Approaches: Adopt a proactive stance towards your health with holistic and preventative approaches that emphasize prevention and optimization.

• Risk Identification: Identify elevated homocysteine levels, which can increase the risk of coronary artery disease, allowing for early intervention and management.

How Does Methylation Testing Work?

Methylation testing, also known as genetic methylation testing, is a type of DNA testing that analyzes an individual’s genetic predispositions to methylation-related health issues. The test typically involves a simple cheek swab or blood sample, which is then sent to a laboratory for analysis. The laboratory uses advanced technologies, such as next-generation sequencing (NGS), to examine specific genetic markers associated with methylation pathways. The test results provide insights into an individual’s genetic strengths and weaknesses, which can help identify potential health risks and inform personalized health strategies.
