Nutrigenetic Testing in Aberdeen

Have you ever wondered why your body has a specific reaction to certain foods?
The answer often lies in your genetic makeup. Luckily, our nutrigenetic testing in Aberdeen can help you get the answers you need to create a sustainable plan for long-term health.

What is Nutrigenetic Testing?

At Livingspring Wellbeing, our private nutritionist offers Nutrigenetic Testing by LifeCode GX, a leading provider of nutritional testing, a revolutionary way to personalise nutrition and lifestyle advice based on an individual’s genetic profile. Nutrigenetic testing can provide valuable insights into your individual biochemistry, which can inform tailored nutrition and lifestyle interventions that are specific to you. This offers you the opportunity to make better decisions about the types of foods, supplements and lifestyle habits that you associate with. The test looks for specific genetic variations that can affect how you metabolise different foods, vitamins, and minerals, as well as how they respond to consuming certain diets and supplements. By analysing your unique genetic profile, nutrigenetic testing can provide personalised nutrition advice that’s tailored to your individual needs.

The Nutritional Tests Process 

1

To start the process, our registered nutritional therapy practitioner must consult with the individual before testing. During this consultation, the counsellor will discuss your health history, lifestyle factors, and any other relevant information that might help inform the best action plan. Once we complete the consultation, your counsellor will place an order for an easy-to-use home testing kit based on the most relevant profile report for your needs.

2

 Upon receiving the home test kit, you will collect the sample with a simple and painless mouth swab on the inside of the cheek. The sample will then be sent to the laboratory for testing. Results are typically received within 3-4 weeks and will provide a detailed insight into how your body responds to different diet and lifestyle factors.

These results will then be reviewed and discussed with your registered nutritional therapist in Aberdeen. We will develop a personalised therapeutic plan based on the individual’s test results to help them reach their health and wellbeing goals.
