Nutrigenomic Testing
Nutrigenomics & DNA Testing London
Nutrigenomics Integration
A personalised, gene-informed approach to health using DNA testing in London to create a clear “health blueprint” for targeted nutrition and lifestyle changes. Nutrigenomics explores how genetic variations influence nutrient needs, metabolism and weight regulation, hormone and thyroid balance, detoxification capacity, histamine clearance, inflammation, and nervous system pathways linked to stress resilience, mood, focus and sleep.
Gemma works with Lifecode Gx, a specialist nutrigenomics platform that translates complex genomic science into practical, clinically meaningful insight. By analysing genetic variations (SNPs), the reports detail your body’s unique nutrient, environmental and lifestyle requirements for equilibrium. These insights are translated into realistic, personalised strategies that support sustainable improvements in health, resilience and everyday wellbeing.
Who may benefit from nutrigenomics testing
This integration may be a good fit if you are experiencing any of the following:
• Ongoing unexplained symptoms that are not resolving with conventional approaches
• Skin issues such as acne, rosacea or sensitivity
• Hormonal imbalance, thyroid concerns or menopause-related changes
• Histamine sensitivity, inflammatory symptoms or food reactions
• Fatigue, brain fog, disrupted sleep or reduced stress resilience
• ADHD-related challenges, mood fluctuations or difficulty with focus
• Weight regulation or metabolic challenges despite lifestyle effort
• Detoxification concerns or heightened chemical sensitivity
• Family history of hereditary illness with touchpoints for change you would you like to proactively target
• A desire for a more personalised and data-informed approach to health optimisation
This list is not exhaustive. If you’re unsure whether nutrigenomics testing is right for you, you’re welcome to book a complimentary 10-minute clarity call to explore whether it would be supportive for you.
Available Nutrigenomics Reports
Testing is tailored to your health history, symptoms, and personal priorities. Many clients begin with a foundational overview before adding targeted reports depending on their goals.
Nutrient Core
A comprehensive overview of genetic influences on food tolerance, appetite regulation, blood sugar balance, caffeine sensitivity, vitamin requirements, inflammation tendencies, microbiome-related factors, detoxification capacity, blood pressure patterns, and circadian rhythm.
APOE
Assesses APOE genotype and related pathways influencing lipid metabolism, cardiometabolic health, and long-term cognitive resilience, alongside insights into methylation, inflammation, toxicity handling, and neuroprotection.
Detoxification
Evaluates genetic variants involved in liver Phase I and Phase II detox pathways, transport mechanisms, and antioxidant protection, informing targeted nutritional strategies.
Histamine
Analyses genes and nutrient cofactors involved in histamine breakdown and clearance, including key enzymes such as DAO and HNMT, supporting personalised dietary and lifestyle approaches.
Hormones
Reviews gene variants involved in steroid hormone synthesis, signalling, transport, and metabolism, offering insight into nutritional and environmental factors relevant to hormone balance.
Metabolics
A systems-level report covering appetite regulation, nutrient sensing, sugar and fat metabolism, cholesterol handling, mitochondrial function, and inflammation to support energy, weight regulation, and healthy ageing.
Metals & Minerals
Explores genetic influences on mineral absorption, transport, and utilisation, alongside pathways relevant to heavy metal handling and tolerance.
Methylation
Assesses key methylation pathway genetics across folate and methionine cycles, neurotransmitter methylation, transsulfuration, and urea pathways to identify likely cofactor needs.
Nervous System
Analyses neurotransmitter-related genetics including serotonin, dopamine, melatonin, adrenaline/noradrenaline, glutamate, GABA, and endocannabinoid pathways to support strategies for mood, focus, stress resilience, and sleep.
Thyroid Balance
Reviews genes involved in thyroid hormone synthesis, activation, transport, metabolism, and susceptibility to inflammation or autoimmunity.
Choosing the Right Combination
Many clients begin with the Nutrient Core report and add targeted panels depending on their priorities.
The most effective approach is to align genetic testing with your symptoms, health history, and current goals so that insights translate into meaningful, practical changes in nutrition, lifestyle, and supplementation.
