DNA Testing for Nutrition (Core, Gut or Diet)

Nutrition DNA testing (also known as nutrigenetic testing) helps you understand how genetic differences can influence your response to food, nutrients, exercise, and lifestyle. Rather than relying on one-size-fits-all advice, a DNA-based approach highlights tendencies that may affect areas like weight management, digestion and gut health, nutrient handling, and metabolic response — so you can make more informed choices.

At Food Power Nutrition, genetic testing is offered via DNA Life reports, with three clear options: DNA Core, DNA Gut, and DNA Diet. Each package is designed around a different goal — whether you want a broad nutrition overview, gut-focused insights, or guidance on which dietary approach may suit you best.

Every package includes a 1:1 interpretation session, so you’re not left trying to decode results alone. We’ll go through the key findings, prioritise what matters most, and translate them into clear, practical guidance you can apply confidently.

Nutrition DNA Testing (Nutrigenetics): What It Tells You

Nutrigenetic (nutrition DNA) testing helps fine-tune diet and lifestyle choices by highlighting genetic tendencies linked to digestion, nutrient needs and metabolic response. Choose DNA Core, DNA Gut or DNA Diet (DNA Life) and purchase online — each package includes a 1:1 interpretation session to translate your results into clear, practical guidance.

How it works

  • Choose your package (Core, Gut or Diet) and purchase online.
  • Receive your at-home kit and follow the instructions.
  • Return your sample to the lab using the provided courier envelope.
  • Lab processing + report creation (typically around 3 weeks).
  • 1:1 interpretation session — once results are ready, we’ll book your session to go through the key findings and translate them into clear, practical guidance.

Genetic Testing and The Power of Nutrigenomics

 

Nutrition meets your genes
The field of Nutrigenomics explores how genetic differences influence how your body metabolises nutrients — affecting digestion, absorption, energy production, detoxification, and more.

 

Personalised diet = better results
Instead of generic dietary advice, a nutrigenomic approach considers your unique genetic profile — leading to more effective and sustainable nutrition plans that align with your body’s needs.

 

Lifestyle optimisation & longevity
When we tailor nutrition, lifestyle and supplement guidance to your genes, we support not just short-term wellness — but long-term health, vitality, and resilience.

 

Targeted recommendations
Genetic insights help us identify predispositions — whether to how you metabolise fats, carbohydrates, vitamins, or how your body handles stress, detoxification, hormone health or gut balance. This means nutrition and lifestyle suggestions that make sense biologically.

How the Process Works?

  • You book a complimentary 20 minutes discovery call to discuss which test is most suited for your needs, or if you already know you want to go ahead with one of the genetic tests, you can just go ahead and purchase it.
  • We arrange the DNA test kit from DNA Life which will be posted to you in 5 working day — you provide a simple sample (blood spot) and send it back with the pre-paid DHL envelope.
  • Once the lab returns your genetic report, usually in 3 weeks,  it will be shared with you. You can also book an add on one hour 1:1 session, where I will  interpret the test comprehensively, integrating it with your health background, symptoms, and needs.

Following the 1:1 consultation I will deliver a fully personalised gut-health plan: diet adjustments, gut-supportive lifestyle or supplement recommendations, and — when relevant — further functional testing (microbiome, gut-barrier, food sensitivity, etc.).
