Personalised Medicine
How can DNA testing help you optimise your health goals?
We are unique individuals born with a set of genes that you cannot change during your lifetime. What we can do, is control the environment that influences the way these genes are expressed. There is a strong relationship between the genes that we carry, and the diet, nutritional, medicinal and lifestyle choices we make.
dnaLife® DNA testing does clinically relevant and actionable gene test, that allows us to better understand our disease risk, our response to different diet, lifestyle and supplements choices as well as response to certain medications.
Choosing Your DNA test
Through dnalife® our clinic has access to getting different DNA test depending on your requirement.
List of different DNA tests:
DNAhealth: Provides the report on genetics of key biological processes governing health and disease (Lipid metabolism, Methylation, Inflammation, Oxidative stress, Detoxifications, Bone health, Insulin Resistance, Food responsiveness, Minerals and Vitamins metabolism).
DNA Diet: Analysis genes related to weight management and responsiveness to diet and lifestyle interventions.
DNA Sport: genetics of exercise performance and reports on soft tissue injury risk, recovery, power potential, endurance potential and peak performance time.
DNACore: DNA Core genetic test reports on gene-environment interactions and provides personalised insights and recommendations on four core areas that significantly impact health: key biological processes, Nutrition, Weight Management, Exercise Response.
DNA Estrogen: reports on genes involved in key biochemical processes governing estrogen metabolism and guides personalisation of diet, hormone and nutritional supplements recommendations to improve estrogen metabolism.
Growbaby: Gives insight into key biological areas related to maternal and fetal health. It provides guidance on how mom to-be can optimise their health and their baby’s health, using their gene-based diet, supplements and lifestyle interventions from pre-conception to birth and beyond.
DNAmind : Gives insight into the functioning of biological areas that influences neurodegenerative disorders including cognitive decline, and late onset Alzheimer’s disease, addictive behaviours, mood regulation such as stress response, anxiety and depression.
Medcheck: This pharmacogenomics test analyses gene variants that affect drug response and determine how you are likely to respond to certain medications (both therapeutic benefit and risk for side effects) allowing your doctor to make personalised prescriptions where necessary. Medcheck reports on close to 200 prescription medications.
DNAsmile: Gives insight into the state of your oral health and your predisposition for developing periodontal disease and tooth caries.
DNAskin: Analyses genes which have been shown to have association with firmness and elasticity, sun sensitivity and pigmentation, sun damage, protection and repair.
How its done:
Step 1: Take your sample.
Collect your sample using the dnalife test kit and send it to the dnalife laboratory.
Step 2: Analyse DNA
Your sample is processed at the dnalife lab and your report is sent to our certified practitioner at our clinic within 10-15 working days.
Step 3: Have consultation to go over your DNA
Our clinic will notify you once your report is in to set up a consultation. You can contact our clinic here
