It's a DNA-based solution engineered for a person's unique genetic makeup, providing health, weight and performance management strategies tailored your specific genotype.
Without this test, we are all blindly limited to trial and error to find the optimal diet and exercise plan. Most people give up before finding it; the genetic test takes the guesswork out to provide the best and most personalized solutions for you - based on your DNA.
This test examines 36 unique traits for your genetic predisposition in areas such as weight loss ability, macronutrient and micronutrient utilization, exercise and training responses, mental and physical foundation, and recovery and injury risk.
I am a certified Genetic-Based Program Designer, so I can interpret your results and tailor your program specifically to you.
Have you ever doubted your fitness program was not working for you even though you followed all regimen religiously?
Your instinct is right. Your genotypes
decide how your body responds to the
exercise and nutrition intake.
Don't fall into someone else's fitness
program, and get your own customized
fitness program.
Genetic testing can provide personalized information about health and wellness traits, and how it might impact everyday life.
WEIGHT LOSS AND GENETICS
Genes won't impact your ability to lose but will influence the weight0loss strategy idea.
Genetics plays a role in obesity and a person’s ability to lose weight, but it isn’t the only factor. An equally large part of weight loss is a person’s environment, lifestyle, diet, and overall lifestyle choices. This means weight loss plans need to be individualized to optimize everyone’s genetics.
BLAMING GENETICS
Your genetics play a role in selecting the best plan of action, but your lifestyle, workouts, nutrition and daily habits are more of an indication of the results you will get rather than your genetic makeup.
Knowing your genotypes changes your training style, food choices, and workout setting in order to optimize the possibility to reach your fitness goals.
ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE AND GENETICS
Athletic ability has been said to be as low as 30 percent and as high as 80 percent determined by genetics. The rest is left to individual differences and factors such as the environment.
Athletic performance is largely influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Further, there is no single trait or gene impacting a person’s athletic performance. Rather, it is a combination of several different traits combined. The main performance related traits impacted by genetics are:
-
Muscular strength
-
Primary muscle fiber types
-
VO2 max
-
Muscle mass
-
Height
-
Flexibility
-
Coordination
-
Intellectual ability

process for genetic testing
1.Receive the test kits
Upon signing up the program, we will provide a DNA collection kit by mail.
2. Register your test kits
The kits include instruction and registration form including
"Privacy and Confidential"
3. Test & Send it to the Lab
Perform the DNA test, cheek swab, at home and return it in the pre-paid package.
4. Your results be delivered
The complete scientific analysis of your unique genotype results will be delivered within 2-3 weeks
5. Discuss the result & create the plan
Discuss the report and develop appropriate program to accomplish your fitness results.
The Procedure of the Program
-
It is very important to follow the kit instructions so you get the most accurate results.
-
Once you register the kit and take your cheek swab, you must send the sample within one week to receive best results.
-
The samples are sent to a CLIA and CAP certified (Clinical Laboratory Improvements and Amendment/College of American Pathologists, respectively) lab for processing. These certifications ensure test results meet or exceed industry standards for clinical laboratory testing.
-
After the lab analyzes the results, we receive an email notification with your results in the portal view. We review the results with you rather than just sending the results to you. We prefer to take enough time to allocate to go over the report thoroughly. This ensures the information is absorbed, and you know what it means for their personally tailored programs.
-
We tailor your fitness program and nutrition advices based on your genotypes to achieve your fitness goals.
-
We set up weekly appointment to review your progress and answer to your questions.
CLIENT CONFIDENTIALITY
Client confidentiality is not only limited to the information we about an individual. It also includes the cheek swabs the client sends to the lab. Only background-checked, authorized and trained individuals at the lab have access to the samples. The samples are marked with a unique kit ID and don’t include identifying or personal information of the person submitting the sample.
We understand that client confidentiality are very important for many of you. Your personal information is confidential, and that your DNA sample is destroyed by the lab after successful analysis. Your analysis results are then securely stored in the distributing company’s database.
The DNA sample is destroyed by the lab after successful analysis and transfer of the raw genetic data to the testing company. The results are securely stored in the distributing company’s database.
In no situation, we don't send the test results over email. Instead, you can continue to access your reports through the secure client portal. Or, if you prefer, we can provide a printed PDF documents.
Please download the form "Participant's Questionnaire and Agreement" below.
We can initiate the consultation.
Sample Reports
We analyze your genetic variants (SNPs) that impact your body's response to the exercise, macronutrients, weight management tendencies, athletic performance, and more....
We can find out that some genotypes respond better to low intensity workout to burn body fat, and that others are efficiently burn more body fat by performing high intensity workout. Genotypes really can tell how your body respond to the workout.
For example, if genetic variant, BCO1, exists, the body doesn't absorb Vitamin A efficiently regardless you consume enough Vitamin A food sources.
We don't want to overdose Vitamin A, especially, during pregnancy, However, we have to consume the minimum amount of Vitamin A to maintain healthy vision, protein synthesis, immune function.
DNA test can tell you how your body is utilizing the micronutrients.
