Comprehensive DNA panel analysing genetic variants relevant to nutrient metabolism, detoxification, hormonal processing, cardiovascular risk, and longevity — interpreted by Dr Menka Gupta to create a truly personalised health and supplement plan.
Genetic testing at NutraNourish goes far beyond ancestry reports or single-gene screens. Dr Menka Gupta's genetic analysis focuses on clinically actionable variants — single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) — in pathways directly relevant to health optimisation, disease prevention, and personalised medicine. The test covers methylation pathway genes including MTHFR (C677T and A1298C), MTRR, and COMT, which influence folate metabolism, B vitamin requirements, homocysteine regulation, and neurotransmitter production. MTHFR variants in particular affect a significant proportion of the Asian population and have implications for cardiovascular risk, mood disorders, and fertility that standard clinical care routinely fails to address. Detoxification capacity is assessed via CYP450 enzyme variants that determine how efficiently the liver processes environmental toxins, medications, and hormones — directly relevant to cancer risk and oestrogen metabolism. Variants in genes governing inflammation regulation (IL-6, TNF-alpha, CRP), antioxidant defence (SOD2, GSTP1, CAT), and vitamin D metabolism (VDR, GC) are also assessed, as are cardiovascular risk variants (APOE, PCSK9, FTO). For women, variants affecting oestrogen metabolism (COMT, CYP1B1) are particularly informative in the context of HRT safety, breast cancer risk stratification, and PCOS management. For longevity planning, APOE4 status is one of the most clinically significant findings — APOE4 carriers face meaningfully elevated Alzheimer's risk and benefit from specific dietary and lifestyle interventions identified in the research literature. Dr Menka presents a detailed genetic report in a one-on-one consultation, contextualising each finding within your broader biomarker picture and medical history. The output is a truly personalised nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle plan — not generic population-based recommendations, but guidance calibrated to your specific DNA.
