The DNA Diet examines gene variations linked to various aspects of managing weight and provides insights into how an individual might respond to different diets and lifestyle changes.
It delves into obesity risk, responses to specific nutrients like carbs and fats, impact of different types of fats on weight management, how exercise affects the body, eating behaviors like feeling full and snacking tendencies, and how circadian rhythms can influence weight management. It’s among the pioneering products globally and offers one of the most thorough and precise genetic tests related to weight.
The genes analyzed in the DNA Diet have connections to body weight and BMI, meeting strict criteria for use in genetic screening tests. Recent clinical findings revealed that diets tailored based on nutrigenetics led to better adherence, long-term BMI reduction, and enhancements in blood glucose levels.
From the patients’ perspective, a randomized controlled trial in 2012 indicated that dietary guidance grounded in genetics was more easily understandable and practical compared to general dietary advice.
DNA Diet enables personalized recommendations for diet and lifestyle based on genetic outcomes. It provides insights into which diet plans, such as low-carb, low-fat, or Mediterranean, might suit an individual.
The DNA Diet’s reports cover various areas like the risk of obesity, ease of weight loss or gain, response to exercise, fat mobilization, fat absorption and metabolism, metabolic rate, and sensitivity to carbohydrates.
