What your report covers

Your report looks at 47 markers across 12 traits. We group them into five simple areas so you can see what your genes say about focus, memory, mood, and brain chemistry. You do not have to act on all of it. Most people start with the one or two areas that matter most to them.

Focus & attention

How your genes may shape attention, mental speed, and clear thinking. This area looks at focus, processing speed, and brain fog tendencies.

Frequently asked questions

How many genetic insights are included?

47 genetic insights related to focus, memory, mood, and brain chemistry.

Is a genetic test kit included?

No. This is a digital add-on report that uses existing PlexusDx DNA data.

How soon will my report be available?

Typically within moments of purchase. Availability outside business hours may take longer.

Can I purchase this without a PlexusDx genetic test?

No. A completed PlexusDx genetic test is required to unlock this report.

What cognitive and neurological pathways does this report analyze?

It analyzes 47 markers across genes tied to focus, memory, mood, and motivation. That includes neurotransmitter genes for dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine such as COMT, DRD2, and SLC6A4, plus pathway genes like BDNF for neuroplasticity and CRHR1 for the stress response. The result is a genetic perspective on brain health for wellness and education, not a psychiatric diagnosis.
