Discover Your Genetic Blueprint Unlock Personalized Wellness Through Genetic Testing

Every body is unique. Our ancestors’ exposure to various stressors, dietary patterns, and physical activity has shaped our individual genetic makeup. Genetic testing offers a window into these personalized needs, allowing us to create tailored strategies to achieve optimal health and wellness. By decoding your genetic profile, we can design a lifestyle plan that supports vitality and balance.

It’s important to remember that the results from your personalized genomics testing are not diagnoses. Rather, your test results will offer us insight into how your genetic expression may change or respond based on environmental triggers, both positive and negative. This is called ‘epigenetics’ and refers to how your body may present based on stimuli (think relationships, stability, nutrition, sleep habits, etc.). 

Unlike epigenetics, which will change over time, your genetic results won’t change in your lifetime, making them a wonderful tool/blueprint to come back to throughout your life. This can help you and your advising practitioners better understand your symptoms and create relevant protocols. 

Let’s take a look into the different panels our Functional Nutritionist, Cassandra Hope, offers and how they can help you better understand and support your body.

Each of the above test categories are hyperlinked and will bring you directly to the ordering page from the lab. If you know the test you want to do, order it and it will be shipped directly to your home, it is a simple saliva test. There is prepaid postage included for you to return to the lab. Results take on average 4-6 weeks and will be sent directly to you. Once you receive your test results, book your initial Health Coaching session with our in-house Functional Nutritionist, Cassandra, and she will interpret your results as well as provide a comprehensive plan for you to follow based on the results and your health goals.
