Explores how efficiently your body performs methylation — a process that supports DNA maintenance, neurotransmitter balance, cardiovascular health, detoxification, and aging.

🧪 Detoxification Genetic Report
Examines genes involved in toxin processing, liver pathways, and oxidative stress to help you understand how your body manages environmental and internal toxins.

🥗 Diet and Nutrition Genetic Report
Analyzes how your genes influence nutrient absorption, utilization, and dietary needs — especially nutrients that support methylation pathways.

📊 All reports and insights are accessed through the PlexusDx Results Portal, part of a connected precision health ecosystem, your central hub for results, add-on reports, blood test pairings, and personalized recommendations.

Together, these reports analyze hundreds of genetic insights to provide a comprehensive view of how your body processes nutrients and supports detox pathways.

FAQs

Genetic Methylation Test

The following questions are specific to the PlexusDx Genetic Methylation Test.

What is the Genetic Methylation Test, and what does it cover?

The Genetic Methylation Test is an at-home cheek-swab DNA kit. One sample unlocks 306 insights across 154 genes, organized into six areas: methylation and folate, detox capacity, nutrient processing, diet and food response, energy and metabolism, and cardiovascular balance. It bundles three PlexusDx reports, Methylation Pathway, Detoxification, and Diet and Nutrition, in a single test.

How does the test work, and how soon will I get results?

Order online, collect your sample at home with a simple cheek swab, and mail it back in the prepaid return envelope. Your results appear in your secure PlexusDx Results Portal in 2 to 4 weeks. No doctor visit is required.

Who can take this test?

This test is for adults who want to begin with their DNA and see how their body handles methylation, detox, and nutrition. Genetic tests may also be taken by minors. For anyone under 18, registration is completed by the PlexusDx customer support team.

Can this test diagnose a health condition?

No. The Genetic Methylation Test is for education and long-term wellness, not diagnosis. It shows genetic tendencies and processing capacity that you can review with your provider. For detox traits, it reflects genetic capacity, not exposure, and it does not measure any substance in your body. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease.

What methylation genes and variants does it analyze?

The methylation area includes core one-carbon and transsulfuration genes such as MTHFR (C677T and A1298C), MTR, MTRR, COMT, and CBS, which influence folate activation, homocysteine balance, neurotransmitter turnover, and B-vitamin use. Methylation is one of six areas. The full kit also covers detox capacity, nutrient processing, diet and food response, energy and metabolism, and cardiovascular balance, for 306 insights in total.
