How does my DNA affect nutrition?

Understanding our genes provides insight for the optimisation of our nutrition and lifestyle. Nutrigenetics is the science of how our genes impact our nutritional needs and effects that nutrient intake has on the body.

At Vitl, we take nutrigenetics to the next level by using your DNA results with our advanced consultation to recommend personalised vitamins based on your nutritional needs and health goals.

How will understanding my DNA help me to live life better?

99.9% of your DNA is the same as everyone else’s, it’s the 0.1% that differs from person to person that makes you unique! DNA is not only responsible for aspects such as eye and hair colour, but also how we’re likely to respond to certain types of dietary, exercise and lifestyle choices. By understanding your specific predispositions to ways of eating and exercising, you can make smarter choices, maximise your potential, and reach your goals more efficiently.

How long do I have to wait for my results?

Once you’ve sent back your cheek swab sample in the prepaid post bag, it will take our lab up to 2 - 3 weeks to process and analyse. We’ll send you an email once your sample has been received and another when your results are ready to view.

How often should I take the test?

Your DNA never changes, which means one test will last an entire lifetime.
