How nutrigenomics can benefit your health
In a world full of one-size-fits-all health advice, nutrigenomics offers a genuinely personalised approach, based on your own genes.
What is nutrigenomics?
Nutrigenomics looks at the relationship between your genes, your diet and your lifestyle: how small variations in your genes affect the way your body uses nutrients, and how what you eat and how you live can influence the way those genes work.
These small variations are called SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms, pronounced “snips”). Everyone has them, and they’re part of what makes your body unique.
Genes show tendencies, not certainties. They're one piece of the picture, alongside your health history and symptoms.
How it works
- A simple mouth swab you do at home
- Your sample is analysed by Lifecode Gx
- I explain your results in plain English
- Together we build a diet, supplement and lifestyle plan that works with your body
Why choose nutrigenomics?
A simple mouth swab is all it takes. From there, we can uncover specific genetic predispositions that affect your nutritional needs, helping us address issues that may be holding you back from better health.
Whether you're dealing with fatigue, digestive concerns, hormonal imbalances or something else entirely, understanding your genetic blueprint helps us tailor your diet, supplements and lifestyle to work with your body, not against it.
How it can help
Mood & wellbeing
Your genes affect how you process nutrients that influence mood, such as B vitamins and omega-3s. Understanding this helps me tailor your diet to support your overall wellbeing.
Hormone balance
Your genetic profile can give insight into how your body makes and processes hormones, and how best to support it through diet, lifestyle and targeted supplements.
Weight & metabolism
Your results give extra insight into how your body may handle fats and carbohydrates, which I use alongside your health history to shape a plan you can stick to.
Preconception
Good nutrition supports overall health before and during conception. Your genetic results can help me personalise your nutrition alongside any care from your GP or fertility clinic.
