Weight Loss Insights From Six Genes

The weight loss portion investigates the genotype of 6 genes associated with weight loss. Your genotype is the combination of genetic variants you carry, and the analysis considers how those variants may affect your response to regular diet and exercise.

Your report identifies genotypes that may be hindering weight loss and provides personalized recommendations for the best foods to eat, nutrient needs, effective supplements, and the best exercises for achieving a healthy weight. These insights can help you adjust your approach based on your individual genetic profile.

HomeDNA™ Food & Pet Sensitivity Testing

The analysis examines how your genes may make you more sensitive to common irritants, including gluten, peanut, lactose, cow milk protein, histamine, egg, and pet dander.

Food sensitivities differ from food allergies. Sensitivities commonly involve delayed digestive discomfort, while an allergy involves an immune response that may occur quickly. Genetic analysis identifies long-term predispositions rather than measuring a current reaction.

Your report includes suggestions for lifestyle and supplement changes related to the findings. You can use this information when considering dietary or household adjustments and when discussing your concerns with a physician.

HomeDNA™ Skin Care Analysis

The report covers genetic factors associated with collagen quality, skin elasticity, fine lines and wrinkles, sun protection, pigmentation, skin antioxidants, and skin sensitivity. Instead of relying only on general product claims, you can evaluate skin care options in the context of your genetic profile.
