No scary results but honest information that you can live healthier with.
Discover what nutrients your body needs based on your genetic profile
Small genetic differences can impact how your body metabolizes certain vitamins and minerals, meaning you may require higher amounts of specific nutrients to maintain optimal health.
- Will your body need a Mediterranean diet or a Hunter -Gatherer diet? Or does it expect a Ketogenic or Plant-based diet?
- Do you have a genetic predisposition to lower levels of Vitamins and Minerals (micronutrients)?
- Did you inherit Sensitivities or intolerances?
Find out what super charges your body.
Find out which diseases you are most sensitive to, so that you can act in time against their development or worsening.
Analysis of 10.000 usable variants of 59 genes linked to potentially serious health problems.
According to the guidelines of the American College of Medical Genetics (ACMG).
Examples are:
- heart and vascular diseases;
- familial hypercholesterolaemia;
- various types of colon cancer.
The human HLA complex contains genes that regulate immune function.
It has also been linked to risks of various conditions and how well your body can deal with certain invaders.
This report also contains several genes that are associated with a more serious course of COVID due to a reduction in the antiviral defense.
Important information for (extra) protective measures and for doctors in case of illness.
The human body has mechanisms that regulate appetite.
Analyzes genes involved in obesity, which when mutated, can make a person eat more or, conversely, provide a faster sense of 'satiety'. This report also includes genes that determine the rate at which fat is broken down and calories are burned.
These genes influence:
- appetite regulation;
- calorie intake;
- formation of fat cells;
- storage of fat in fat cells.
This information helps in determining choices regarding lifestyle, diet, and physical activity.
Alzheimer's disease involves complex mechanisms that affect the function and structure of the brain.
This report analyzes genes involved in these mechanisms. Discover whether you have an increased or decreased risk of Alzheimer's disease, so you can take proactive steps to protect your brain health.
This information helps in making lifestyle choices and early interventions.
DNA Test Add-on
do you know your genes?
Determine with a small quiz how well you can predict what is written in your genes.
Find out, among other things, how your ear wax is built up, whether you have the baldness gene (m), whether you get drunk fast(er) and whether you gain weight faster than average from fatty food.

Frequently Asked Questions
After receiving your order, we will get started with your test kit. Your test kit will be sent by post and will fit in your letterbox. You can see in the image what you will receive.
We only use cells from the cheek mucosa. Just scrape with a cotton swab on the inside of your cheek and you're done. So... no needles and no blood!
It's very simple: our test kit contains a special cotton swab that allows you to easily collect saliva by moving it along the inside of your cheek. You send the cotton swab back to us in the return envelope and we will ensure that the lab gets to work with it.
Via our medicine pages you can find out which ones are affected by your DNA. Each medicine page has a specific box of whether there is an influence. However, the nature of the influence and which genes are involved are not mentioned. You can find this information in your account under the medicines option. You will find further explanation in your report when you have performed a pharmacogenetic test.
Our pharmacogenetic test checks the following genes: ABCB1, ALDH2, BCHE, COMT, CYP1A2, CYP2B6, CYP2C8, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, CYP2D6-enhancer, CYP2E1, CYP3A4, CYP3A5, CYP4F2, DPYD, F2, F5, G6PD, GRIK4, HLA-B*1502, IFNL3, MTHFR, OPRM1, SLCO1B1, TPMT, UGT1A1 and VKORC1.
We will send you an email as soon as the data from the lab is received by us.
Within your account all tested data are clearly displayed.
We clearly indicate what the outcome means and what impact this can have for you.
We aim to be able to offer you the results of the lab with 3-4 weeks. When the time comes, you will receive an email from us. Your results will then be visible in your account.
For the DNA analysis we work together with an established and accredited laboratory. This way we can offer a high quality DNA analysis.
You can choose one of the four available payment methods:
- PayPal
- Credit Card
- Bank Transfer
- ApplePay (soon)
Pharmacogenetic testing is reimbursed if a patient has serious side effects or if the drug is unexpectedly ineffective. It certainly makes sense to submit the invoice to your health insurer.
NOTE: despite the medical context, this situation may not be valid for insurers operating in the UK.
That is easy: you do!
You determine what happens to your data. We ensure that this is done in the most reliable and safe way. We can give you more information about your genes if you leave the data with us, but you can also delete them from us. That is your choice, since the data is yours.
No.
The data are yours. And if we run into a research project we would like your cooperation with, to enhance science, we will contact you and ask for your participation. Without your explicit permission, at that moment, nothing happens.
We do our utmost to prevent bad things from happening: we have taken measures to prevent illegal access so that your genetic information is safe with us.
- Fully separated databases keep your genetic information disconnected from your personal (identifiable) information.
- All connections to our website are encrypted using TLS/SSL (Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer) technology.
- External firewalls limit unauthorized connections to our databases.
The possible results are as follows, per gene:
- PM, poor metabolizer - greatly reduced or no activity
- IM, intermediate metabolizer - reduced activity
- EM, extensive metabolizer - normal activity
- UM, ultrarapid metabolizer - very fast activity
