Genetic variations involved in key biological processes that contribute toward the risk of development of mental health disorders may give insight to the prevention, diagnosis and
treatment of disease. Knowledge of an individual’s genotype will provide diagnostic insight and assist in determining optimal treatment strategies for individuals suffering from, or at risk for, mental health disorders. The DNA Mind test analyses 30 genes which have been shown to have significant associations with key mental health disorders.
DNA Mind reports on associations in the following areas:
- Neurodegenerative disorders – mild cognitive decline and late onset Alzheimer’s disease

is one of the first products of its kind in the world, and amongst the most comprehensive and accurate weight-related genetic tests available.
The genes comprising the DNA Diet test have associations with body weight and body mass index, and all meet stringent criteria for utility in a genetic screening test. Recent clinical data found that the addition of nutrigenetically tailored diets resulted in better compliance, longer-term BMI reduction and improvements in blood glucose levels. DNA Diet will allow the practitioner to give personalized diet & lifestyle recommendations based on the DNA Diet genetic result. It will show which of the following diet plans are right for the individual patients: Low carbohydrate diet; Low fat diet; Mediterranean diet.
DNA Diet reports on the following areas:
- Variations linked to obesity and being overweight
- Ability to lose or gain weight easily
- Responsiveness to exercise
- Mobilization of fat from fat cells

Periodontal disease refers to both gingivitis (gum disease) and periodontitis. Periodontitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the mouth that begins when bacteria, found in dental plaque, causes a major negative immune response, which leads to the damage of the connective tissue and the bones surrounding your teeth. If left untreated, the damage is irreversible and causes tooth loss.
Besides the importance of tending to your oral health to prevent tooth loss, is the relevance that your oral health has on the rest of your body. Periodontal disease has been strongly linked to an increased risk for a number of chronic inflammatory diseases, including cognitive decline and late-onset Alzheimer’s disease, as well as heart disease, type 2 diabetes and certain cancers (oesophageal and oral cancer). Therefore, by understanding your risk for periodontal disease and ensuring good oral health with personalized interventions, you are also able to control and decrease your risk for other inflammatory diseases.

Is the study of how genes affect the body’s response to certain medicines. Genes can be the reason the same medicine at the same dose will affect people in very different ways. Genes may also be the reason some people have bad side effects to a medicine, while others have none.
Medcheck testing can be used to:
- Find out whether a certain medicine could be effective for you
- Find out what the best dosage might be for you
- Predict whether you will have a serious side effect from a medicine
The test analyzes genotypes associated with drug responsiveness for cardiovascular disease, psychiatry and pain management amongst others. Reports provide us with detailed guidelines on gene-drug interactions; highlighting potential side effects, increased toxicity, and lack of efficacy.
