Healthy eating and exercise may result in weight loss, but this is not guaranteed.
Our DNA Diet Kit is one of the first products of its kind! It tests for 15 genes involved in energy expenditure, appetite and fat metabolism, which all play an important role in weight regulation. The results of the test can assist you in creating a personalised diet and exercise plan to help you reach your weight and lifestyle goals.
Doesn’t everyone lose weight if they eat healthy and exercise?
40% to 80% of the variance in body weight is due to genetic factors, so not everyone gains or loses weight while following the same diet.
Gene variations have an impact on...
- Metabolism
- Absorption and storage of fats & carbohydrates
- Eating behaviour
How will I apply the results?
Your results will tell you what type of diet and exercise plan is best for you. You’ll learn whether your body will likely do better on a low fat, Mediterranean, or low carbohydrate diet plan. You’ll also find out the style and intensity of exercise that is expected to be most effective for your genetic makeup.

You can opt for a consultation with our Holistic Health Coach to review your analysis with you. If you’d like to add a consultation to your test kit be sure to select it from the drop-down menu when placing your order. These consultations are generally 30 minutes per test and can be done by telephone or video, whenever your schedule allows for it.
How does it work?
As with all of our test kits, the DNA Diet Kit requires just a quick cheek swab. You’ll be done in less than a minute! After that, simply package it up and mail it to our accredited laboratories in the pre-paid envelope provided. You can expect to receive your results within 2 – 3 weeks and can then schedule a consultation.
