DNA nutrition test: Be the best you!

They have a crazy £120 off these kits at the moment, half price PLUS I got you a special code for another £20 off using LIZZIEDNA : https://bit.ly/2GMfE04 I just can't tell you how much I LOVE that this exists in the world these days. That with one cheek swab at home you can get an in-depth, super geeky, detailed report on your genetic nutrition and metabolism codes. They test 16 things:
  1. FAT GENE
  2. METABOLIC RATE
  3. ALCOHOL SENSITIVITY
  4. CAFFEINE METABOLISING
  5. APPETITE
  6. DIGESTION & IBS
  7. FAT & MUSCLE COMPOSITION
  8. USE OF DIETARY FAT
  9. VITAMIN B6
  10. VITAMIN B12
  11. VITAMIN C
  12. VITAMIN A
  13. VITAMIN D
  14. IRON
  15. OMEGA 3 & 6 metabolism
  16. FOLATE
and then you get this sent back: I got my results back last week and was amazed and intrigued. Some results were underlining things I suspected already:
  • Low absorption of Iron - I've always had low iron readings / been anaemic often
  • Caffeine metabolism ability not great - if I drink coffee too much I definitely feel the effects, get a bit jittery etc
And then there were things that I didn't know, but am now so grateful to and will be acting on right away!
  • Muscle building ability not great - I'm getting the heavy weights out right away
  • Dietary fat conversion to energy slower than usual - less slathering butter on everything for me!
There is then a really detailed scientific read through of all the genetic codes, which one you have and what that means. As well as a lot of really super useful info on what to do know you know all this! Like this, my muscle mass genetics are not so great, so there's tons to read about what you can do: Our genetic make up is what we are given, but if we know all this information, we can adapt our lifestyles accordingly and make ourselves the best possible versions of us that we can! We are all unique, and it is so empowering to think we can tweak our diet and lifestyles. I've been tempted for years but I've never seen it this thorough or this cheap, so do have a look if you want to know ALL THIS: https://bit.ly/2GMfE04 using code LIZZIEDNA for extra £20 off YAY for knowledge.
