Food is just the beginning.

The genetic layer of cardiometabolic care. Every patient starts with a diet type they understand, backed by lipid, Lp(a), glucose, and methylation reports you can act on.

What every patient gets

A blueprint for every patient

DT
Start with the diet type

Every patient is matched to one of 20 diet types, built from fat metabolism, ApoE status, carbohydrate response, histamine clearance, and lactose digestion. Patients remember it, and they follow it.

CM
Go deep on cardiometabolic risk

Lp(a), lipoproteins, cholesterol absorption, coronary artery disease, and an insulin resistance score, read together instead of one gene at a time.

LT
Follow patients for years

Genotype doesn't change. Reports published after a patient tests appear in their account at no extra cost.

For patients on or coming off GLP-1s

The medication ends.
The eating plan shouldn't.

diet types, so every patient has a plan that outlasts the prescription

In the STEP 1 trial extension, patients regained about two-thirds of their weight loss within a year of stopping semaglutide, and most cardiometabolic improvements drifted back toward baseline. Gene Food gives every patient a long-term eating plan built on how their genes handle fat, carbohydrates, and cholesterol, whether they stay on therapy or step down.

In practice

Genetic context for the tests you already order

Lp(a)

A genetic score that flags patients to prioritize for serum Lp(a), a marker still under-ordered in routine practice.

Insulin resistance

An 18-variant polygenic score for insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes risk, included in every test. Use it to decide which patients justify a continuous glucose monitor.

Cholesterol absorption

Genetic context on whether a patient may absorb dietary cholesterol efficiently, to help decide who warrants a sterol panel and which dietary levers matter most.

Genetic results indicate tendencies, not measurements. They complement laboratory testing.

The science

GWAS-first. Polygenic. Graded by evidence.

Most nutrigenomics tests start with a list of popular genes. We start with genome-wide association studies, score variants together, and show you how strong the evidence is behind every result.

1
GWAS-first

We prioritize variants replicated in large genome-wide association studies, not single-gene findings from small cohorts. Our Environment reports, for example, draw on studies of 6,000 to 52,000 participants per finding.

2
Polygenic, not single-gene

A patient carrying one MTHFR C677T allele doesn't have a broken pathway. They have a percentage of enzyme function that only means something alongside the rest of their genotype, so we score variants together.

3
Weighted by a Science Grade

Every variant carries a Science Grade from 1 to 10, built on three research cornerstones: health impact, mechanism of action, and clinical benefit. A 10 means a fully validated SNP with an experimentally validated mechanism and repeatable clinical-trial evidence. A 1 means an identified SNP and nothing more. Strong evidence counts for more; thin evidence counts for less.

8–10Validated

Validated SNP with an experimentally supported mechanism, and evidence of benefit in human models or clinical trials.

5–7SNP of interest

Association with health impact established; mechanism clear but untested, or supported only in non-human models.

1–4Identified or potential

Identified SNP with an unclear mechanism and little or no established link to health impact.

Scores combine three research cornerstones: health impact, mechanism of action, and clinical benefit. We use the same scale to rate the studies we cite and the products we review. How the Science Grade works →
