Description
Nutrigenomix is pleased to provide you with your Personalized Nutrition and Fitness Report based on your individual genetic profile. These recommendations are based on the most current evidence-based scientific research that has been published in peer-reviewed journals and reviewed by our team of world-renowned experts in the field of nutrigenomics.
Our laboratory uses state-of-the-art genetic testing procedures to analyze the DNA from your saliva sample. We analyze your genetic code to determine how your genes can influence recommendations related to:
- weight management,
- body composition,
- nutrient metabolism,
- cardiometabolic health,
- food intolerances,
- eating habits,
- fitness performance and
- injury risk.
- What nutrients you should focus on in your diet to best meet your unique needs.
- How to eat to reach your performance, weight loss, fertility or body composition goals.
- How nutrients (in foods, beverages and supplements) can impact your risk of nutrition-related chronic diseases such as Heart disease, blood pressure, cholesterol and diabetes.
- Whether or not you are genetically prone to have sensitivities to caffeine, lactose or gluten.
- Information about your fitness strengths or areas to improve upon, as well as your risk for injury and tips to prevent or manage it
Based on these results, we develop a series of nutrition and fitness recommendations that are aligned with your genetic profile. As new discoveries in the field of nutrigenomics are made, you will have the opportunity to access this information to further fine-tune your personalized nutrition and fitness plan.
You and I, your dietitian, will use the personalized recommendations contained in the report to help you achieve optimal nutritional status and fitness level. We can create a plan to maximize your genetic potential and overall health and start to eat according to your genes!
All recommendations are based on more than 10 years of rigorous scientific evidence and are backed by the distinguished Science Advisory Board. This test is only available through Registered Dietitians, because they are the most trusted source of evidence-based food and nutrition information.

What is the difference between the Health, Sport, Fertility and Plant-Based tests?
While all tests report the same genetic markers, each test is intended for a different clientele.
- The Health test focuses on achieving optimal health for individuals who are pursuing general well-being. For example, these individuals may be interested in weight management, and improvements in cardiometabolic health and fitness.
- The Sport test is designed to provide nutrition and performance-related recommendations that will help active individuals and athletes boost physical and mental performance while optimizing body composition and nutritional status.
- The Fertility test is designed to provide nutrition recommendations that will help individuals (male or female) who are trying to conceive by optimizing their fertility potential.
- The Plant-Based test focuses on achieving optimal health and well-being for individuals following a vegetarian or vegan diet.
