This test helps identify if any genetic variations may be interfering with weight management goals and provides insight into which dietary choices may have the most health benefits
An innovative, comprehensive genetic test for personalizing diet, wellness, and weight loss planning based on an individual’s unique genetics. This test helps identify if any genetic variations may be interfering with weight management goals and provides insight into which dietary choices may have the most health benefits for weight management, cholesterol management, and more.
- NutriGen™ is the most complete nutrigenomic analysis in the market related to weight loss, response to exercise, intolerances and nutritional needs, among others.
- The NutriGen™ report proposes a dietary plan considering 850+ foods and a 3-phase supplementation program based on the individual’s genetic profile and health concerns.
- The NutriGen™ panel is an important tool for weight-management and overall health, especially for those who have tried other approaches before with little to no success.
- It provides the following important information:
- Personalized optimal diet type based on your genetic with proposed distribution of carbs, protein, and fat
- Suggested daily calorie intake
- Top 5 food categories and distribution of daily intake of foods
- Intolerance risk to lactose, alcohol, gluten, caffeine and fructose
- Vitamin and mineral deficiency risk
- Suggested foods and dietary supplementation with proposed 3-phase support for detox, restricting and supplements
- Expected benefits from exercise such as improvements in HDL levels
