    How caffeine impacts your body

    Some people can't break down caffeine well. They may experience increases in blood pressure or unpleasant symptoms after drinking coffee. These symptoms can include feeling jittery, difficulty sleeping, headaches, and muscle twitches.

    How alcohol impacts your body

    In people who are sensitive to alcohol, alcohol breakdown is inefficient and causes the buildup of a toxic compound called acetaldehyde. Symptoms of alcohol sensitivity include flushing, nausea, headache, and fast heart rate.

    Make Targeted Changes Based on Your DNA

    With personalized dietary, supplement, and lifestyle suggestions, you will understand why specific health recommendations are right for your body and tailored to meet your current health needs. Our recommendations are crafted based on your genetic profile because there is no such thing as one-size-fits-all.

    50 %
    of adults in the U.S. have at least one chronic health condition, many of which are impacted by genetic factors.1
    80 %
    of Americans have nutrient deficiencies, which can impact everything from cognitive function to immunity and metabolic health.2
    25 %
    of U.S. adults are affected by mental health conditions, where genetic predispositions play a key role in conditions such as anxiety, depression, and stress management.3

    Your Optimal Diet & Macronutrients

    Your optimal diet provides a personalized macronutrient breakdown based on your genetic profile. By analyzing your genetic data, we determine the ideal balance of protein, fat, and carbohydrates to optimize your health. For example, if the Mediterranean diet suits you, you'll get guidance on incorporating its key components, like vegetables, fruits, whole grains, and olive oil, to enhance your well-being.

    Eating Habits & Sensitivities

    Understanding your eating habits and sensitivities is crucial for personalized nutrition. Our analysis identifies your tendencies, such as sugar cravings, snacking habits, and likelihood to overeat. We also assess sensitivities to gluten, salt, and potential food allergies. These comprehensive insights allow you to make informed dietary choices.

    Vitamins & Minerals

    Understanding your unique vitamin and mineral needs is essential. Our analysis identifies whether you have typical or increased needs for key nutrients such as Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Vitamin C, Zinc, Iron, and Magnesium. By tailoring your diet and supplements to meet these specific requirements, you can ensure your body gets the essential nutrients it needs to function at its best.

    Our Tests

    The following questions are specific to PGx and NGx testing.

    What is Nutrigenomics (NGx)?

    Nutrigenomic (NGx) testing investigates the influence of genetic makeup on nutrient needs. The generic advice to “eat right and exercise” means different things depending on your genetics. This test can help you outline what changes you can make to your daily habits that can impact your weight, energy, and overall health.

    Is Nutrigenomics (NGx) right for me?

    Everyone can benefit from knowing how your genetics influence your body’s response to nutrition, providing you with a lifetime of guidance.

    Orders

    Find questions related to ordering.

    Does my doctor need to order these tests?

    No. You can order the test directly.

    Can I order these tests for someone else?

    Yes. You can purchase a test for another person. They will need to activate their test kit on our website upon receipt. For minors, parental or guardian consent is required for activation.

    Once someone has successfully responded to PGx registration questions, PlexusDx's Clinician Network will order your test for you.

    How long does it take to receive my results?

    Once we receive your sample at the lab, it takes approximately 10-14 business days to complete the review and analysis for PGx tests and 2-4 weeks for NGx tests.

    Can I use FSA/HSA to cover these tests?

    Yes, the cost of each test is typically reimbursable through both Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) and Health Savings Accounts (HSA).

    What is Flex and what is their relationship with PlexusDx?

    PlexusDx has partnered with Flex to allow you to use your Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA). This means you can now use your HSA or FSA debit card to buy health and wellness tests with pre-tax dollars, resulting in net savings of 30-40%, depending on your tax bracket.

    How do I pay with my HSA or FSA card?

    To use your HSA or FSA debit card, add products to your cart as usual. At checkout, select "Flex | Pay with HSA/FSA" as your payment option, enter your HSA or FSA debit card, and complete your checkout as usual. If you don't see "Flex | Pay with HSA/FSA," you may be in Shop Pay. Select "checkout as guest" to view more payment options.

    What if I don't have my HSA/FSA card available?

    If you don't have your HSA or FSA card handy, still select "Flex | Pay with HSA/FSA" as your payment method. Enter your credit card information and Flex will email you an itemized receipt to submit for reimbursement.

    Why can't I see Flex as a payment method?

    The key here is to make sure you are logged out of Shop Pay. One of the easiest ways to do this is to go through checkout in an incognito window.

    Why is my HSA/FSA card being declined?

    HSA/FSA cards are debit cards, and the most common reason for declines is insufficient funds. Reach out to your HSA/FSA administrator to confirm your balance.

    I submitted my Flex itemized receipt for reimbursement and my FSA requires more information.
    Please forward us the request from your FSA, and we will work with the Flex team to issue you a new receipt.
    Help! I didn't receive an email from Flex with my itemized receipt and/or letter of medical necessity. What should I do?

    Please check your spam folder, as sometimes emails from notifications@withflex.com may be automatically filtered as spam by some email service providers. If you still can't find it, please email support@withflex.com and let them know the email address associated with your order.

    I would like to use multiple HSA/FSA cards to pay for an item. Can I do that?

    No, unfortunately, this isn't a supported feature right now. If there are insufficient funds in a single HSA or FSA account, you can instead enter a credit card on the Flex checkout page. You will receive an itemized receipt and/or Letter of Medical Necessity from Flex, which you can submit for reimbursement.

    Is sales tax covered by HSA/FSA funds, or is it treated separately?

    Sales tax for eligible items is also covered by HSA/FSA funds. If the customer has a split cart, the tax will be divided among the cards based on the items.

    My HSA/FSA Claim was denied. What should I do?

    We strongly recommend checking with your HSA/FSA provider to see if a purchase is eligible prior to completing the purchase. However, if you believe your claim has been wrongly denied, please send over any response from your HSA/FSA provider to us so we can share it with Flex and receive guidance on the next best steps to take. Please note that employer-sponsored FSAs can determine what products are eligible beyond the IRS's guidelines, so it's extremely important to check prior to purchase.

    Can a customer purchase a product now and apply for FSA reimbursement in the next calendar year?

    The ability to apply for FSA reimbursement in a future calendar year depends on the policy of the specific FSA provider. Most FSA administrators require that the purchase be made during the time of coverage. For example, if the FSA coverage is for 2025, all purchases typically need to be made and/or submitted for reimbursement within that coverage period. However, some administrators may have more flexible rules regarding the timing of when the expense occurred. We recommend that customers review their plan policy to confirm the details. Note: Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) are different and generally allow for reimbursement at any time, even in future years.

    Can old (non-Flex) customers use their order confirmation email to apply for HSA/FSA reimbursement?

    Unfortunately, for purchases made without using Flex in the checkout to receive an itemized receipt, it may be difficult to apply for reimbursement. For Health Savings Accounts (HSAs), consumers can use an itemized receipt for reimbursement anytime after they have made the purchase, even if it is many years later. For Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs), most accounts require that the purchase was made in the calendar year during which the consumer had the FSA, as FSAs typically do not roll over. Some FSAs offer a buffer window, allowing customers additional time to submit receipts for expenses incurred during the previous calendar year.
