Methylation Genetic Test – Lifecode

£379.00

The Methylation Genetic Test looks at your DNA to find tiny differences called SNPs, which can affect your body’s ability to carry out a process called methylation.

Methylation is involved in almost every metabolic process in the body, occurring billions of times every second in our cells and contributing to numerous crucial functions.

Imbalances in methylation can increase susceptibility to chronic health conditions, as well as cancer and premature ageing.

The Methylation Genetic Test examines genes involved in all the different parts of the methylation cycle and provides information on whether someone is likely to be over- or under-methylating and which nutrients they may require to support this important pathway.

Price includes 45 minutes interpretation via Zoom and written report
