What is Nutrigenomics and why is it helpful?
Nutrigenomics is the interaction between genes, nutrients and health. A nutrigenomics test examines DNA to identify variations that can impact our health, which can be supported by nutrition. Variations in our DNA are what makes each of us unique and can have significant effects on our health.
​
Essentially, our DNA affects how we respond to food, how we absorb nutrients, how we exercise, sleep, detox, metabolise and so much more.
Accessing this information through a nutrigenomics test can help with the management of current health issues as well as providing you with the knowledge to take a preventative and proactive approach to your future health.
The test results give us the power to make smart everyday choices about our unique genetic make up so we can optimise our health and embrace our uniqueness.

How does it work?
As a qualified nutrigenomics practitioner, I work with Lifecode GX, the UK’s leading provider of nutrigenomics testing services, to ensure accurate, evidence-based tests and interpretation of results. By analysing your results, I can help you discover the personalised nutrition and lifestyle interventions to best support your unique genetic variants.
​
Once you have booked, a test kit is sent out to you. A simple cotton swab is used to collect loose cells from the inside of your mouth. It is sent off to a lab for analysis, and the results are ready 2-3 weeks later.
Once the results are received, you can book in your 60-minute consultation with me. We will go through the results in detail and I will discuss personalised food, supplement and lifestyle interventions and answer any questions you have. I will send you a summary of findings and your nutrition plan after the consultation.
