• Step 1: Order DNA Collection Kit from our secure order page
• Step 2: Take your samples in the privacy of your home
• Step 3: Place samples in supplied swab envelopes
• Step 4: Return completed kit in the reply paid envelope
• Step 5: Testing takes 5-6 weeks to process
• Step 6: Report sent via email

Every DNAHealth Kit contains everything you need to collect your DNA sample:

• 2 Packages of DNA Sample Collection Swabs
• 1 DNA Sample Envelope
• 1 Return Envelope 

• Step 1: Remove the DNA sample envelope and both packages of cheek swabs

• Step 2: Using 1 swab at a time, open your mouth and rub the swab firmly back and forth and up and down on the inside of your cheek for 30 seconds. 

To prevent excess saliva, avoid the gum area of your mouth. To dry the swab, hold and wave for 60 seconds, the place the swab directly into the DNA sample envelope

• Step 3: Repeat Step 2 with the remaining swabs; be sure to use all 4

• Step 4: place the DNA sample envelope in the return envelope, seal securely and mail.

DNAHealth requires a minimum purchase of 5 test kits per order to facilitate efficient processing and ensure cost-effectiveness for our customers.

After samples are received at the lab, results are typically obtained in six weeks. As soon as your report is prepared, we will send your results via email.

Standard Shipping rates for samples to reach our Laboratory costs $8.95, taking between 2 - 8 business days.

Express post costs $14.99, taking between 1 - 4 business days.

Any business orders of a minimum 5 tests or more will include free express shipping.

Our laboratory examines genetic markers (SNPS) linked to several aspects of how the human body metabolises food, nutrients, and physical activity, as demonstrated by outside studies.

Dietary and exercise advice tailored to your genetic test findings (i.e., DNA) are included in your DNAHelalth Healthy Weight report. The nutrition information explains in simple terms how much fat, protein, and carbs you should eat each day, as well as which nutrients you may be deficient in and what foods are appropriate sources of them. You'll discover how your body reacts to the amount of fat, protein, and carbohydrates you consume in connection to how you utilise them as fuel, and therefore, how to diet to reduce body fat.

You may also find out how likely you are to burn fat as energy throughout various forms of activity from your DNAHealth Healthy Weight report. It will provide you with detailed information regarding the kinds, intensities, durations, and frequency of activities that are most compatible with the findings of your genetic test.

No, DNAHealth Healthy Weight only addresses genes associated with the body's metabolism of food, nutrients, and physical activity. A doctor or a professional genetic counsellor should evaluate any DNA test that is done to find illness predictors.

More than thirty genetic markers (SNPs) that have been linked to sensitivity within each test category (e.g., gluten) have been demonstrated by external research are included in the analysis. Each group has a different amount of SNPs analysed.

This group includes fish, prawns, apples, tree nuts, soybeans, soy, maize and yeast.

Most individuals have the most severe physical effects from gluten and dairy sensitivities, so those whose DNA suggests they may be sensitive in these areas would wish to start with those suggestions and see if it helps. Try removing items from other categories, including eggs and peanuts, and then eating from the "Other Foods" category if symptoms persist. Genetic markers for susceptibility to certain foods or allergens in pets are, of course, just one aspect of the picture. Sensitivity may also be impacted by other elements including exercise, food, and environmental circumstances. Before starting any supplements or making large dietary changes, speak with your doctor.

After the Human Genome Project was finished in 2003, researchers started to identify the distinct genetic makeup of human skin. Their study yielded 15 genetic markers that were implicated in both skin protection and accelerated ageing in 2008. A new era in customised skin care has been ushered in with the discovery of 17 more genetic skin markers since then.

This DNA test, which has scientific backing, looks at 28 genetic markers (SNPs) in 7 categories related to skin ageing. A customised scale is used to assess each category.

Yes. Your DNA test's insights into skin health can help you choose the preventative strategies that are best for you. Nobody can tell how old your skin will be merely by glancing at you, even if you strictly adhered to certain instructions. This test is a great resource if you're confused about what's best for your skin, need inspiration to maintain the long-term health and quality of your skin, or just find it easier and more practical to concentrate on areas where your skin is genetically weaker.  You no longer have to waste money guessing what works best for you!

Although HomeDNA Healthy Skin is not the first to provide robust predictability, it can be used as strong analytical tool. The fundamental component of this test is our capacity to predict the individual future for clients skin using their own DNA.
