Three simple steps to personalized insights
In this section, you will find answers to the most frequently asked questions about our services and tests. We are here to guide you and help you understand how the tests work and how they can improve your daily life
Depending on the test you choose, selected genetic variants associated with nutrition, metabolism, weight management, micronutrients, exercise and well-being are analysed.
Your results are presented in a clear, personalised report, helping you understand your body better and make more informed choices in your everyday life.
Your DNA represents only one part of the overall picture. A genetic test does not provide a diagnosis, predict your future health with certainty or replace clinical examinations, laboratory tests or monitoring by a healthcare professional.
Your genetic material remains essentially unchanged throughout your life. The laboratory analysis therefore usually needs to be performed only once.
Scientific knowledge, however, continues to evolve and may allow new or more comprehensive interpretations of genetic data in the future.
Your sample is linked to a unique code, and access to your information is restricted to authorised personnel and service providers whose involvement is necessary to complete the service.
Your results are shared with a healthcare professional only when this has been agreed or when you have provided the relevant authorisation. GENOSOPHY does not sell personal or genetic data to advertisers, employers or insurance companies. Further information is available in our Privacy Policy.
The information provided is valuable not only for children but even for infants. However, if the infant has not yet been weaned (and thus still has many maternal cells present in its mouth), a small blood sample from the newborn is sent to our laboratory instead of buccal cells.
The test is performed using a special swab that collects a sample of cells from the inside of the cheek (buccal smear), a completely painless and quick procedure. Using the latest technology, these few cells are enough to extract DNA from which over 750,000 genetic polymorphisms are analyzed. The information obtained will lead to personalized nutritional recommendations.
