The DNA Health Test is designed to optimize well-being and health by personalizing lifestyle and dietary choices and, where necessary, by using tailored supplements to compensate for any nutritional deficiencies associated with specific genetic variants.
The DNA Health approach helps healthcare professionals determine the optimal nutrition required for good health, longevity, and reduced disease risk. Nutrition is a critical factor in determining genomic stability, as it influences all relevant biological pathways: exposure to dietary carcinogens, biotransformation, DNA repair and synthesis, and apoptosis.
Current recommendations for daily vitamin and mineral intake are largely based on preventing deficiency diseases. However, since lifestyle diseases are partly caused by DNA damage, it is logical to focus on establishing the optimal requirement for essential vitamins and minerals to prevent genomic instability.
Additional attention should also be given to individuals with genetic polymorphisms that alter the bioavailability of certain micronutrients and the affinity of important enzymes for their nutritional cofactors.
Clinical Value
