Want to understand your genetic blueprint for optimal health and receive personalised recommendations for diet, supplements, exercise, and lifestyle based on your unique genotype?
Unlock your genetic blueprint for optimal health with our Comprehensive Genetic Test. This extensive at-home genetic analysis covers 92 genes and 113 SNPs across digestion, energy, hormones, stress, inflammation, athletic performance, DNA protection, and detoxification for personalised health optimisation.
Your cheek swab test kit and all instructions are posted directly to you - there is no need to visit a collection centre.
Methylation is one of the body’s most vital biochemical processes. Efficient methylation supports balanced neurotransmitters, healthy DNA expression, energy production, hormone metabolism, and optimal cellular repair. When methylation is suboptimal, these processes can become sluggish, affecting mood, focus, energy, and resilience.
The Genetic Methylation Test analyses specific genetic variants in enzymes such as MTHFR, MTR, MTRR, COMT, BHMT, and related pathways to assess how effectively your body can generate and recycle methyl groups. This provides valuable insight into how your body activates key biological processes.
Your genes act like thousands of tiny switches that determine how your body handles everything from the food you eat to the stress you face - essentially creating your individual operating system that influences your energy levels, mood, athletic performance, and overall health.
The test covers an extensive 92 genes and 113 SNPs across the following categories related to genetic variations:
- Digestion
- Energy
- Hormones
- Stress & cognitive performance
- Inflammation and its connection to overall well-being
- Athletic performance
- DNA protection & repair
- Detoxification
It reveals whether you're genetically wired to thrive on certain foods or struggle with others, how efficiently your cellular powerhouses produce energy, how your body manages stress and inflammation, what types of exercise suit your genetic makeup, and how well your natural detox systems function.
When results show genetic variants that might create challenges - like slower toxin processing or heightened inflammation responses - you'll understand precisely what targeted nutrition, lifestyle changes, or supplements can help optimise your health based on your unique genetic profile, transforming guesswork into personalised, science-backed wellness strategies.

You may benefit from the Comprehensive Genetic Test
Essential for individuals seeking personalised health optimisation, those with complex health issues, people wanting genetically-based nutrition and fitness guidance, or anyone interested in precision medicine approaches to wellness.
Understanding your unique methylation profile can help you and your practitioner:
- Personalise nutritional and lifestyle recommendations to improve methylation efficiency.
- Identify whether you may benefit from tailored support with folate, B12, B6, or other cofactors.
- Gain clarity on contributors to fatigue, brain fog, low mood, or hormone imbalance.
- Optimise cellular repair, genetic expression, and long-term health.
- Empower your understanding of your body’s unique biochemistry.
This test is suitable for anyone interested in functional health optimisation or those experiencing symptoms related to methylation inefficiency and genetic variations.
How to prepare
No special preparation is required. For 30 minutes before sample collection, avoid eating, drinking, smoking, or chewing gum. Collect buccal cells using the provided kit according to instructions for your gene test. No medications need to be discontinued. Store the sample properly and ship promptly for optimal DNA quality.
Understanding results
Your comprehensive report provides genetic analysis across all tested categories and personalised recommendations for diet, supplements, exercise, and lifestyle modifications. Results include genetic strengths, areas needing support, and specific interventions tailored to each individual's genetic profile. Risk assessments and optimisation strategies are provided for each health category.
Your report will include:
- Genetic variants involved in the methylation pathway.
- Whether these variants may influence enzyme efficiency, impacting cardiovascular health.
- The functional implications for folate metabolism, methyl group recycling, and related processes.
- Personalised interpretation integrating your genetics with nutrition, symptoms, and lifestyle context.
Remember: genetics reveal potential tendencies, not fixed outcomes. Environment, diet, and lifestyle all influence how your genes express, so results should always be interpreted holistically.
After the test
Once you receive your results, you should speak with a health professional to provide:
- Personalised recommendations to optimise methylation efficiency.
- Nutritional and lifestyle strategies tailored to your genetic profile.
- Guidance on maintaining methylation balance through diet, stress management, and nutrient support.
This report will become a valuable reference for long-term functional health optimisation, including insights into homocysteine levels.
Frequently Asked Questions
This test focuses on health-related genetic variants that affect how your body functions, rather than ancestry. It provides actionable health insights for personalized wellness strategies.
Methylation is the process of adding a small chemical tag — a methyl group — to molecules in the body. This is how your body activates or regulates many essential functions, from brain chemistry to hormone balance.
This test is a buccal (cheek) swab used 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. Supplement and nutrition plans are best developed with your health practitioner, considering your broader health context.
Some genetic variants affect drug metabolism, but medication changes should only be made with healthcare provider guidance. The test provides information to discuss with your doctor.
No. While methylation can influence certain detox pathways, this test specifically analyses methylation-related genes only.
Results are typically available within 2–3 weeks after the laboratory receives your sample.
Recommendations are based on peer-reviewed research linking genetic variants to health outcomes. However, genetics is one factor among many affecting health, and recommendations should complement comprehensive healthcare.
This test identifies genetic predispositions and optimization opportunities but doesn't diagnose diseases. It's designed for health optimization rather than medical diagnosis.
Your genetics don't change, so retesting isn't necessary. However, interpretation may evolve as research advances, and periodic report updates may be available.
Yes, the comprehensive report is designed to be shared with healthcare providers to support personalized medicine approaches and informed health decisions.

Having seen the GP regularly, I thought I had everything covered. I had no idea I had Type II diabetes as I was symptomless. Now I can manage it before it gets really bad. I never would have caught it this early if I hadn't used Bloody Good.
