Glutathione & Detox Pathway Report

Learn your status for genetic markers associated with endogenous (internal) antioxidant production

Unfortunately, man-made pollutants are increasingly compromising our physical environments. Believe it or not, genetics affect how effective our bodies are at excreting and dealing with these toxins. Environmental toxins can stress the body significantly, and individuals with lower endogenous antioxidant production due to genetic variants may be particularly vulnerable to these harmful effects. The Gene Food Glutathione & Detox Pathway Report evaluates genetic predispositions for producing endogenous antioxidants like glutathione and superoxide dismutase to give a window into the body’s baseline detox ability.

The best DNA diet app
★★★★★

“I’ve tried several other companies, including InsiderTracker and DNAfit; if your primary concern is diet then I would absolutely recommend Gene Food as the best of the bunch.”

Carbs are GOOD
★★★★★

“Once I went back to carbs (based on the Okinawa diet) and quit the whole 30/paleo diet as well as any attempts at Keto or low-carb, my weight stopped rising, and actually started to go down (and I didn’t even follow the Okinawa diet very strictly, and did no caloric restriction)!”

Best health decision of my adult life
★★★★★

“Acquiring a custom nutrition plan from Gene Food was the single best health decision of my adult life. I frequent the Gene Food blog & the Gene Food podcast. John O’Connor and Dr. Aaron Gardner are focused on providing individuals with the very best science based information today. I believe their individualized approach, not the “one size fits all” seen frequently, is the future of optimizing health and wellness.”

Find out how your body actually handles carbs

Low-carb works for some people and backfires for others. In the PREDICT-1 trial, genetics accounted for nearly half of the variation in how much blood sugar rose two hours after a meal. Our CLIA-certified test scores your carbohydrate response across multiple validated SNPs, matches you to one of 20 diet types, and turns it into a plan: the carbs that suit you, the ones to limit, and a two-week meal plan built around them.

Frequently asked questions

Not everyone has the same ability to detox from environmental toxins like air pollution. Some of us naturally produce more endogenous antioxidants the body uses to neutralize free radicals. Certain genetic variations may increase your susceptibility to oxidative stress, which is linked to various health conditions such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and neurodegenerative disorders. Understanding your genetic profile can help assess your risk and take preventive measures such as optimizing your antioxidant intake.

For example, Sulforaphane, the compound found in broccoli sprouts, acts as a cancer chemopreventive agent. This study found that sulforaphane inhibited the carcinogenic effect of benzene. It seems that sulforaphane, by triggering NrF2, helps to turn on genes like GSTP1, which in turn helps the body make glutathione, the master detoxifier, which sticks to and removes heavy metals and other bad stuff from our system.

Knowing of a reduced genetic ability to deal with environmental toxins can help create a personalized approach to prevent damage before it begins. For example, an individual who learns they may have a decreased genetic ability to clear environmental toxins may choose to live farther away from a highway or to swap out synthetic products for sustainable alternatives.

Like all our tests, the Glutathione & Detox Pathway Report is a simple cheek swab test. The test kit includes a self-addressed return envelope and detailed instructions for taking it. The swab sample is sent to our CLIA-certified laboratory in Houston, where the sequencing occurs.
