Gene is the basic physical and functional unit of heredity. Every human cell has 23 pair of chromosomes, and each chromosome carries many genes. According to Human Genome Project,each human has between 20,000 and 25,000 genes.
Genetic testing helps to confirm or rule out a suspected genetic condition or help determine a person’s chance of developing or passing on a genetic disorder.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP), are the most common type of genetic variation among people. It occurs during cell division, where the genetic materials are incompletely copied into the new cells. A single replacement of one nucleotide with another type, e.g. cytosine (C) replaced with the nucleotide thymine (T) in a certain part of DNA.
Most of the SNPs have no observable effects on health, although some of these mutations are very important to help predict an individual’s response to certain drugs, susceptibility to environmental factors such as toxins, and risk of developing particular diseases.
Our genetic testing kits come from internationally accreditated lab
NO NEED to take blood, only your saliva
Tailored prescription for supplements and skincare.
ALLERGY
We test the 22 traits using 1366 genes related to Allergy. It helps you to understand what your immune system could potentially react to certain food, plants, chemical and airborne allergens that causes allergy.
There are 5 categories of allergies offered in our tests
NUTRITION
There are 30 traits in nutritional testing using 477 genes in nutrition and metabolism. It helps us to understand our dietary needs and lifestyle. All the recommendations are written by qualified dieticians for optimized wellbeing
The nutritional traits we test includes:
FITNESS
We test for 15 traits on athletic performance, muscle characteristics, injury risks and weight management.This genetic profiling helps to optimise diet, lifestyle and training recommendations by sport scientist for maximum performance.
SKIN
There are 10 traits on skin aging, sensitivity and pigmentation being tested by our kit. The tailored skincare from the results of the genetic testing will offered a more comprehensive skincare for premature aging, UV damage, sun spots and pigmentation.
