Nutrigenomics is the science of understanding how our genes interact with the nutrients we consume. Your DNA provides the instructions to your body on how to make all the proteins it needs to function. The jobs these proteins have range from absorbing or utilising nutrients, producing or breaking down histamine, hormones and neurotransmitters, generating energy, tackling infections, detoxifying chemicals – and much more. Common variations in our genetic code can lead to small but significant changes to the shape of the protein produced – and this can affect how well that protein can do its job.
Everyone’s genetic makeup is unique and remains the same throughout life, with lifestyle factors and behaviours influencing how these genes are expressed. Through looking at your individual DNA code, we can see which processes you may find trickier to carry out efficiently – as well as which processes are more robust, uncovering predispositions that affect your individual nutritional needs. Nutrigenomics, therefore, provide highly personalised insights that can guide you in making more effective choices and positive action for optimal health.
A variety of reports are available depending on your symptoms and goals.
