methylation testing near DUFFIELD |  DNA Genetic Tests NEAR DUFFIELD

DNA methylation is a process that can switch genes on or off, influencing how your body functions. It's affected by both your genetics and lifestyle factors like diet and stress.

Our DNA methylation testing provides valuable insights into:

• Your biological age (how your body is ageing at a cellular level)
• Predispositions to certain health conditions
• How your body responds to environmental factors

This information empowers you to make proactive lifestyle changes to optimise your health and potentially slow down the aging process.

By understanding your genetic predispositions, you can take control of your health and make informed decisions to manage it better. There is a two-way interaction between your DNA and your lifestyle, meaning the choices you make can influence how your genes express themselves over time.

With a simple saliva swab, we analyse your DNA to identify 29 SNPs (genetic variations) that can impact your health. This advanced genetic analysis unlocks vital insights into how your genes influence everything from your ability to tolerate caffeine to how your body responds to exercise, nutrients, and even stress.

Yes, genetic information is just one piece of the puzzle. At Ignite, we integrate this knowledge with your bloodwork, microbiome analysis, and food sensitivity testing to create a truly unique and comprehensive view of you.

While both involve DNA analysis, they provide different information. Genetic testing looks at your inherited genes, while DNA methylation testing assesses how those genes are being expressed. This expression can be influenced by lifestyle and environmental factors, providing insights into your current health status and aging process.

By understanding your unique methylation patterns, we can recommend personalised strategies to optimise your health and potentially slow down ageing. This may include targeted nutritional interventions, stress management techniques, and lifestyle adjustments to support healthy gene expression.

We recommend repeating the test periodically to track your progress and make adjustments to your wellness plan as needed. The frequency can vary depending on your individual goals and health status.

Whether you're looking to improve your fitness, enhance performance or optimise overall health our personalised approach will help to achieve your goals. The first step is to speak with a specialist or book a consultation who can help you work towards a healthier, stronger you.
