Overview

Methylation is a biochemical process that supports neurotransmitter balance, DNA expression, energy production, hormone metabolism and cellular repair. When methylation pathways are less efficient due to genetic variants, these processes can be affected.

This test analyses specific variants (SNPs) in key methylation enzymes including MTHFR, MTR, MTRR, COMT and BHMT. Your results show whether you carry variants that may reduce enzyme efficiency and how this could influence your body's ability to process folate, B12 and other cofactors involved in the methylation cycle.

Because this is a genetic test, your results reflect your DNA and do not change over time. However, how your genes are expressed is influenced by diet, lifestyle and environment, which means there are practical steps you can take based on your results.

Symptoms

Relevant for anyone interested in personalised health strategies based on their genetics. Particularly useful if you experience persistent fatigue, brain fog, low mood or hormone-related symptoms that have not been fully explained by standard testing.

Questions

  • This test focuses on health-related genetic variants affecting how your body functions, rather than ancestry.
  • Methylation is the process of adding a small chemical tag, a methyl group, to molecules in the body. It regulates many functions including brain chemistry, hormone balance, energy production and DNA expression.
  • No. This test uses a buccal (cheek) swab for DNA analysis. No blood draw is required.
  • No. Because this is a genetic test, your results are determined by your DNA and are not influenced by vitamins, supplements or medications.
  • Your report highlights genetic tendencies that may influence methylation efficiency. Specific supplement recommendations are best developed with your healthcare practitioner.
  • No. This test identifies genetic predispositions and optimisation opportunities. It is designed for health optimisation, not medical diagnosis.
  • Your genetics do not change, so retesting is not necessary.

How to prepare

No special preparation is required. Avoid eating, drinking, smoking or chewing gum for 30 minutes before collecting your sample. Use the provided cheek swab kit according to the instructions. No medications need to be stopped.

After the test

Discuss your results with a healthcare practitioner who can provide personalised recommendations to support methylation efficiency. This may include targeted nutrition strategies, specific supplementation with folate, B12, B6 or other cofactors, and lifestyle adjustments.

Your test results will be available in your private dashboard. If there are any urgent issues, we'll let you know so you can follow up with your health professional.

Understanding results

Your report covers genetic variants across the methylation pathway and related enzymes. For each variant, you will see whether you carry the standard form or a reduced-efficiency variant. Genetics reveal tendencies, not certainties. Your environment, diet and lifestyle all influence how your genes are expressed.

Simple health checks in my control

I didn't know that private blood tests were an option. Tried this platform as the packages suited what I wanted for a good price. Easy to follow instructions, and super quick results. Platform provides more information than my gp's ever have on the tests and what the results meant. Would like more clinics to be able to test at (specifically Capital Pathology) but there is a decent network. Will continue to use.
