Gut Health Tests UK – What Does Your DNA Say?

Why Gut Health Matters

Did you know that over 90% of your serotonin (the happy hormone) is produced in your gut?

Clearly, there’s more truth behind your gut as a “second brain” than we might think. Your gut health rests on what you feed it and how well it digests. As it has its own microbiome, it is quite literally teeming with little organisms trying to keep you healthy. This inside environment needs to be strong and healthy enough to protect you from the outside environment!

Some common signs of poor gut health include gas, disturbed sleep, low mood, anxiety, frequent illness, or heartburn. This should be motivation enough to be proactive in taking care of your gut health!

Types of Gut Health Tests UK

There are numerous gut health tests in the UK. These include stool samples, microbiome analysis, and food sensitivity and intolerance tests.

These tests can be inconvenient and uncomfortable. And sometimes they don’t give you exactly the answers you were looking for.

Our DNA gut health test only requires a simple swab of your inner cheek, which you can do in the comfort of your own home! Your DNA is the core of your body composition; it is an instruction manual, if you will. Using these insights, you can make informed decisions about your gut health to empower you on your wellness journey.

How Our DNA Gut Health Test Works

Our DNA gut health test requires a swab of your inner cheek. These cheek cells are then analysed at our top-notch European lab and converted into raw data. Our nutrigenomic and nutrition specialists translate this data into simple, easy-to-understand reports.

These reports include genes and variants that are well-researched and well-known across the medical community. So, rest assured, you are getting accurate information.

Benefits of Using a DNA Gut Health Test

Your DNA does not change. This means there is no question about the long-term result of your DNA. However, your DNA is not your destiny. Health concerns can be reversed and/or prevented by assessing the risk factors and implementing nutrition and lifestyle changes, such as focusing on your gut health in a way that works according to your DNA.

Our DNA tests also offer the convenience of being at home to take the test, and ensure that your sample is safe and secure.
