Lose Weight Effectively (Based on Genetic Insights)
Sep 15, 2025 Struggling to lose weight? Our new nutrigenomics (genetics + tailored nutrition) test analyzes over 157 genes to help you understand why you might be challenged and give you personalized lifestyle and dietary recommendations to help you end the struggle. This at-home cheek swab test delivers results in about 1 month, guiding diet, exercise, and lifestyle changes for sustainable results.
Why It Works
Our genetic test pinpoints genetic barriers to weight loss, offering a roadmap to address metabolism, appetite, inflammation, and detox. This science-backed approach ensures effective, lasting results. Sustainable weight loss is very personal, not one diet or lifestyle fits every person. Learn what is right for you and work with your body, not against it.
Here are some examples of what you may learn about your unique physiology, how genetic variants can affect your body composition:
Key Areas for Weight Loss
- Carbohydrate & Fat Metabolism (ADIPOQ, PPARG, SLC2A2): Variants may impair insulin sensitivity or fat storage, suggesting a lower-carb or balanced-fat diet to stabilize blood sugar and reduce fat accumulation.
- Appetite Regulation (FTO, MC4R, APOA2): Genes affecting hunger and satiety can lead to overeating; tailored diets with fiber or protein can curb cravings.
- Exercise Response (ADRB2, ADRB3, PPARGC1A): Identifies if HIIT, endurance, or strength training optimizes fat burning based on your energy expenditure genes.
- Detoxification (GST, SOD, NQO1): Poor detox can hinder metabolism; increase fiber and cruciferous veggies to support toxin elimination.
- Inflammation (IL-6R): Variants increase fat storage; anti-inflammatory foods like Omega-3s reduce inflammation for better weight loss.
Examples of Personalized Recommendations
- Diet: Lower carbs, higher fiber, or specific fats based on your genetic profile.
- Exercise: Tailored routines (e.g., HIIT or endurance) to maximize your calorie burn.
- Supplements: Omega-3s, antioxidants, or probiotics to support your metabolism and detox.
- Lifestyle: Stress management and sleep optimization to balance your hormones.
