- Nutrigenomics studies how genes influence nutrient metabolism, stress response, and brain chemistry, enabling personalized health plans.
- Genetic testing can reveal SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) that affect how your body responds to food and environmental factors.
- Common genetic issues like MTHFR, Krebs cycle variations, and neurotransmitter imbalances (GABA, COMT, MAO) can be identified through testing.
- Understanding your genes can help improve sleep, mood, energy, and digestion through targeted interventions.
- Small, DNA-informed changes to diet, lifestyle, and supplements can lead to significant and lasting health improvements.
