Why take a nutrigenetic DNA test?

Your DNA contains essential information to understand how your body is best suited to assimilate food.

The information you will discover is yours since always, and it will always be yours! The DNA test is not like a simple blood test, it allows you to know the information contained in your genes and that will be valid forever!

The DNA test offers you greater awareness, provides you with the tools to be able to undertake a path of conscious prevention, defined, and tailor-made for you!

01

Buy a test and receive it at home

From the day of your order, it will take 2-3 working days at most before the kit reaches your home.

04

Receive the report with your results

You will receive your results in the form of a report. The report is very intuitive and easy to read, whether you decide to read it alone or with the help of a medical specialist. Implement your guidelines to define your new eating routine and improve your lifestyle more consciously!

But what exactly is a nutrigenetic test?

Holifya is based on two main scientific pillars: Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics.

Nutrigenetics is the science that studies the small genetic variations (polymorphisms, of which "SNPs" are the most frequent) that exist in single genes and in the regions between genes and explores the relationship between these variations and nutrients.

Genetic makeup can influence your health response to nutrients . In fact, the body's response to different foods can be very different from one person to another.

It is precisely these polymorphisms that cause variable responses of individual subjects to specific nutrients (e.g., different sensitivity to refined and whole carbohydrates, to the absorption and breakdown of fats, etc.).

Nutrigenomics explores the relationship between nutrients and the genome, examining how nutrients can influence DNA by modifying gene expression, either silencing or activating the transcription of specific genes.

Is it possible to correct a given gene transcription profile through optimal nutrition? Yes, we are talking about “molecular nutrition”: through food, we ingest molecules that can stimulate or silence certain genes, leading to positive “homeostatic” effects or potential “dysregulation,” which can influence our health.
