What your report covers

Your report looks at 175+ markers across 41 nutrition traits. We group them into five simple areas so you can see what your genes say about food, vitamins, and minerals. You do not have to act on all of it. Most people start with the one or two areas that matter most to them.

Vitamins

How your body takes in and uses key vitamins. Your genes can affect how well you absorb or convert vitamins like folate, vitamin D, and B12.

Minerals

How your body handles important minerals. This area looks at minerals like iron, zinc, and calcium, and how your genes may shape your needs.

You do not have to change everything at once. Pick one or two areas, talk them over with your doctor or a registered dietitian, and build from there.
