Nutrigenomic Testing London
DNA-Based Nutrition Analysis
What Is Nutrigenomic Testing?
Nutrigenomics is the study of how genetic variations affect individual responses to nutrients, dietary patterns, and nutritional interventions. Nutrigenomic testing analyses specific genes involved in nutrient metabolism, absorption, and utilisation to provide personalised dietary guidance based on your unique genetic makeup.
At Reborne Longevity, we offer targeted nutrigenomic panels that examine genes affecting vitamin metabolism (including folate, B12, vitamin D), macronutrient processing (carbohydrates, fats, proteins), detoxification pathways, inflammation responses, and caffeine and alcohol metabolism. This genetic insight allows us to move beyond generic dietary advice to truly personalised nutrition strategies.
What Does Nutrigenomic Testing Reveal?
MTHFR and Folate Metabolism: Variants affecting methylation and folate processing, critical for cardiovascular health, neurological function, and pregnancy outcomes.
Vitamin D Metabolism: Genetic variations in VDR and other genes affecting vitamin D synthesis, transport, and receptor sensitivity.
Fat Metabolism: Variants in genes like APOE, FTO, and PPARG affecting lipid processing, saturated fat response, and weight management.
Carbohydrate Sensitivity: Genetic factors affecting insulin response, glycaemic control, and optimal carbohydrate intake.
Detoxification Capacity: Variants in glutathione transferase and cytochrome P450 genes affecting toxin clearance and antioxidant needs.
Caffeine and Alcohol Metabolism: CYP1A2 and ALDH2 variants determining fast or slow metabolism and associated health implications.
Prenatal and Preconception Nutrigenomic Testing
We offer specialised nutrigenomic testing designed specifically for women planning pregnancy or currently pregnant. These panels focus on genetic variants that affect maternal and foetal nutritional requirements, including folate metabolism, choline needs, omega-3 fatty acid processing, and vitamin D status.
Preconception genetic nutrition testing allows us to optimise maternal nutrient status before pregnancy, potentially reducing risks associated with neural tube defects, preterm birth, and other pregnancy complications. For pregnant women, testing can guide supplementation strategies tailored to individual genetic needs rather than generic prenatal recommendations.
