DRC-Gx

Understanding your genetic profile and how your body likely processes key vitamins and minerals is an important step in developing a healthy nutrition program. The DRC Genetics analysis is tailored to your unique genetic makeup, providing insights into areas for improvement and a personalized roadmap for optimization. Even if you eat a perfectly balanced diet with plenty of naturally occurring vitamins and minerals, most of us have some difficulty absorbing and metabolizing (breaking down) one or more nutrients at the cellular level.

A simple mouth swab provides a comprehensive analysis of your genetic predisposition to absorbing micronutrients in your diet. It’s time to decipher your genetic code, revealing which genes are active and which are not functioning optimally.

Our genetic test Incorporates the “”Book of You,””  a thorough overview of your current health status. This test will examine key actionable genes and their impact on your daily performance, such as:
