Your wellness journey begins with your genes. We analyze the genes which are responsible for normal functioning of your chosen systems, compare your gene mutations to relevant data from the 1000 Genome Project, and use that data to provide useful diet recommendations based on real scientific evidence.
Get all the recommendations you need to start a healthier lifestyle and diet. It’s all based on your gene variants, from superfoods to nutrients & recipes.
Your diet and lifestyle recommendations are based on accurate, up-to-date and well-researched scientific studies and databases. These include open-source databases such as the 1000 Genome Project, GWAS Catalog, American Heart Association (AHA), National Institute of Health (NIH), the Academy of Nutrient and Dietetics.

Intro
Vitamin D3
Diet, lifestyle, and genetics play a vital role in defining the health of your bone structure. Regular sunlight exposure and a diet rich in Vitamin D can help support good bone health. However, certain gene variants can play a role in Vitamin D deficiency, which can lead to poor muscular and skeletal health.
Vitamin D3 helps the body absorb the calcium from the food you eat. As calcium is the key mineral found in bones, it’s vital that your body can easily absorb calcium and strengthen the bones. Children who are Vitamin D deficient have a higher chance of developing rickets. For adults, Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to depression, erectile dysfunction, schizophrenia, and heart disease.

Gluten
Lactose
Gut inflammation
You know the phrase, ‘You are what you eat.’ But the opposite is also true — what you eat depends on who you are.
That’s because your genetics can influence how well your body can digest a particular kind of food. Also, many digestive disorders like colon cancer, Crohn's disease, and pancreatic cancer can be hereditary.
Learning how your body reacts to a certain food can help you adopt smart nutrition habits to mitigate these genetic dispositions.
For people with celiac disease, gluten-rich products like rye or wheat can be highly toxic. When gluten enters the body, it causes the immune system to respond negatively and start destroying the lining of the small intestine. Other common symptoms include bone loss, fatigue, malnutrition, and even delayed puberty.
The majority of people gradually lose their ability to digest lactose after infancy. This leads to abdominal discomfort and loose motions after consumption of dairy. Though not considered as a genetic illness, lactose intolerance is often inherited. Knowing your predisposition to it may help you to adjust your diet and therefore improve the quality of life.
Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a reference to a group of chronic conditions which involve parts of the gastrointestinal tract like the stomach, small intestine, colon, or their combination. These conditions include Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis. Knowing the genetic risk of IBD is important for prevention and control of this malady.

HDL
LDL
Homocysteine
Caffeine
Many cardiovascular disorders can be inherited, such as high blood cholesterol, coronary artery disease, and heart failure. Genetic analysis will determine your level of risk and the types of healthy food that can help lower your risk of heart disease.
Not all types of cholesterol are the same. Some may be beneficial, while other types harm you. HDL is known as the ‘good’ cholesterol. It can be easily removed by the liver and helps to dissolve atherosclerotic plaques. It is beneficial to have high levels of HDL, as it helps you combat plaques and maintain cardiovascular fitness. Dietary habits and physical activity may significantly alter your HDL levels.
Cholesterol becomes dangerous when the lipid metabolism is disturbed, and low-density lipoprotein LDL becomes dominant in the blood. It cannot be removed by the liver and may result in atherosclerotic plaques. The less LDL you have, the better.
MayWayDna analyzes the most studied genes that affect your LDL level, for example, PSRC1, APOE, LDLR, APOB, APOC1. Besides influencing lipid metabolism and influencing the development of atherosclerosis, some LDL metabolism genes are involved in other diseases. For example, APOE is involved in Alzheimer’s disease.
Homocysteine is an important marker of cardiovascular health. In high amounts, it can damage vascular tissue and increase the risk of vessels forming atherosclerotic plaques. Homocysteine takes part in the folate cycle, a vital metabolic pathway of our organism. It increases steadily with time: old people usually have higher levels of homocysteine than young ones. Lower levels of homocysteine are associated with extended healthspan.
Whether caffeine is good for you depends on your metabolism. Those who process caffeine slowly have a higher risk of heart attack, while those who process caffeine quickly are safe ― and may even protect themselves from certain cardiovascular disorders.

Addictions We consider longevity to be the top priority for any wellness service. We define longevity not as a lifespan, but as a healthspan, the total time during which a person can act and think free from age-related diseases. Everyone is unique, so the approach to one’s wellness should be personalized as well. Our genetics influences many aspects of our health. It is essential to know yourself to make the best choices for your health.
Intro
Coffee
Tobacco
Alcohol
Addictions are genetically predisposed. While many people take addictive substances: tobacco, alcohol, or caffeine, only some of them become addicted . Your genetics influence the chance you get addicted, and different genes manage your response to different chemicals.
Your genes not only show whether caffeine drinks are healthy for you but also influence the amount of coffee you drink. They can also tell whether you enjoy it or not. If your genes are unfavorable, you’ll be more likely to develop the coffee addiction.
Tobacco is the most prevalent addictive chemical in the world. Although most smokers develop addictions, some may draw the short straw. Smokers with unfavorable genetics are more likely to develop lung diseases. Moreover, they also get addicted much faster.
Alcohol addiction goes right after tobacco regarding people affected by it. Although many people drink socially, only a minority of them develops an addiction. Your genetics can tell not only whether you are likely to get addicted but also how likely you are to get an esophagus cancer.
