frequently asked questions
What exactly is genetic wellness testing, and will I understand the results?
Genetic wellness testing involves analyzing specific genes related to your well-being. We provide a convenient home DNA testing kit where you collect cells from your mouth using a cotton swab. It's a quick and easy process that only takes a minute to collect enough DNA for analysis.
With Gx Wellness Reports, you get action oriented recommendations for nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle choices that match your genetic profile. You don’t need a science degree to understand. We break down complex information so it is clear and concise.
After your personalized report is ready, we’ll review your results together to confirm that you’re confident in your path toward wellness. And you’ll have access to a private online portal to review your results 24/7.
Absolutely. Your genetic data is stored securely and handled with care. Our federally certified laboratory follows strict privacy standards to protect your information.
Your DNA sample is destroyed within 45 days after analysis, and unlike other laboratories, YOUR DATA IS NOT SOLD for commercial gain.
So, you can order your reports with confidence, knowing that your privacy is a top priority.
Is my genetic data secure?
We understand your frustration. Your Gx Wellness Report is based on your unique DNA. It's not a generic recommendation designed for the average person, or guesswork.
This precision means you're not experimenting. You're making choices aligned with what your body needs, which is more likely to lead to long-term and sustainable results, unlike the commercial methods you tried in the past.
I've tried numerous diets and workouts before. How are the Gx Wellness Reports any different?
No, we don't predict future health conditions, diagnose them, or provide medical advice. Our laboratory analyzes around 300 genetic markers related to how your body handles food, nutrients, exercise, and aging.
We use this information to provide insights on how your genes influence your response to nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle choices. Which includes the predisposition (lower or higher likelihood) to certain health conditions.
Note that having certain genetic traits associated with health conditions doesn't guarantee you'll develop them. Lifestyle choices and environmental factors also play a significant role.
Wellness programs that consider your unique DNA eliminate guesswork, making it more effective to manage your health and well-being.
Can genetic wellness testing predict my future health conditions?
Nutrition, fitness, and lifestyle choices are intertwined with healthy aging before, during, and after menopause. Your journey is personal, and so are Gx Wellness Reports.
The personalized strategies you're getting include a tailored diet and exercise plan for weight management (the Slim Program) and help with adjusting nutritional needs (All Reports) that can impact hormone shifts and metabolic changes that occur with menopause and aging.
The Renew Report provides crucial insights for healthy aging from the inside out, including organ health, sleep, mental function, vision, and more.
Our reports also highlight your genetic likelihood for inflammation and diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers, which are more common as you age.
When you can have this level of knowledge (and the research that backs it up), you're empowered to make proactive lifestyle adjustments leveraging your DNA to reduce health risks and enhance your longevity.
How can the Gx Wellness Reports help someone over 40 with menopause and healthy aging?
How can the Gx Wellness Reports improve my exercise and fitness efforts?
Whether you’re exploring a more active lifestyle or you are a seasoned athlete, we've got you covered.
The Slim Program supports healthy weight management and fitness with a sample diet plan, recipes, and exercise plan customized to your genetic makeup.
The Perform Report provides insights and recommendations to boost your athletic performance, including support for mental and physical foundations, training response, fuel utilization, recovery and injury risk.
Can I share my report with my doctor, coach, or trainer?
Sharing with your healthcare provider, coach, or trainer is a great idea! You'll be providing them with crucial information to support your specific needs and goals. Which means a more collaborative, more effective, and tailored approach to your overall wellness.
While incredibly valuable for personal wellness, most insurance plans won't cover the cost of genetic testing as a medical necessity.
However, your health savings plan (HSA) or flexible spending account (FSA) may allow for the allocation of funds toward health-related expenses, including genetic wellness reports. If your physician recommends you utilize a weight management program, you can use your HSA or FSA funds to pay for the Slim Program.
We recommend consulting your insurance or account administrator to understand your eligibility and the required steps for reimbursement.
Are the reports covered by my insurance plan?
