DNA TEST FOR WEIGHT LOSS UK | Get Nutritionist Help
Think Weight Gain is ‘in your genes’?
Get clarity on what what your genetics tell you about how you store and balance energy, which type of energy or diet is preferred by your genes, and whether your appetite is influenced by your DNA/Genetics.
As Nutritionists, we think its important that you are aware that whilst your genes play one part, your metabolic health, your digestive health, and lifestyle really makes up who you are and where you are today. Genes can give a super interesting backdrop of your blueprint and help understand some basic foundational information.
If you’re looking to lose weight now however, work on your metabolic health and insulin resistance (blood sugar). You can read our simplified explanation here in our article, ‘can’t seem to lose weight despite your best efforts’?
Test suitable for those with cardiometabolic (cardiovascular) risk concerns, those wondering what role your gene type plays in your weight management.

The Metabolics Report transforms our understanding of how genes confer metabolic individuality and underpin energy regulation, longevity and healthspan.
This genetic test looks at gene variations (pertaining to our body functions or enzymes) powerfully influence key pathways driving human metabolism. It incorporates over 40 genes and 50 SNPs across 6 pathways, including appetite regulation, nutrient sensing, sugar and fat metabolism, cholesterol and bile, mitochondria and inflammation.
Some of the genes tested:
Appetite Regulation: BDNF, FAAH, FTO, LEPR, MC4R, NPY, POMC
Nutrient Sensing: ADIPOQ, FOXO3, HIF1A, IRS1, PARP1, PGC1A, PPARA, PPARG, SIRT1, VEGFA
Sugar Metabolism: AMPD1, GCK, GLUT2, IRS1, PPARG, TCF7L2
Fat Metabolism: ADRB3, CD36, CPT1A, FABP2, LPL, PLIN1, PPARA, SREBF1
Cholesterol and Bile: CYP7A1, HMGCR, LDLR, SREBF1
Mitochondria and Inflammation: CAT, CRP, FOXO3, GPX1, IFNG, IL6, NRF2, SIRT3, SOD2, TNF, UCP1/2/3

We recommend that you book an interpretation session with one of our BSc and MSc qualified Functional Medicine Nutritionists to learn what your results mean for your symptoms.
Note that there’s no report with this session so be prepared to take a few notes.
Data Safety:
Each test is processed in an ISO certified UK laboratory and all samples are completely destroyed after 6 months. All client genotyping data is marked for destruction at 5 months and completely destroyed by 6 months.
The client report, the data and the DNA sample is never (and will never be) shared with, or sold to third parties. All of the data extraction and analysis is done in the UK.
