DNA Testing: Personalised Insights Through Nutrigenomics

At The Long COVID Clinic, we offer advanced nutrigenomic testing to help you understand how your unique genetic makeup influences your health, recovery, and response to interventions. By analysing your DNA, we can identify key genetic variations—known as single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)—that may impact areas such as metabolism, detoxification, hormone balance, cardiovascular function, and mental health.

This personalised insight allows for more targeted, effective clinical strategies.

What is Nutrigenomic Testing?

Nutrigenomics explores how genes and nutrition interact. Small variations in our genetic code can influence how we process nutrients, regulate inflammation, respond to stress, and more. These insights can support tailored interventions in complex, chronic, or post-viral conditions like Long COVID.

Tests We Commonly Use

Through our partnership with Lifecode Gx, we offer a range of DNA panels. The most commonly used in our clinic include:

• Nutrient Core – examines how genetic factors influence absorption, transport, and utilisation of key vitamins and minerals.

• Methylation – assesses gene variants related to detoxification, mental health, energy production, and cardiovascular risk.

• Metabolics – focuses on mitochondrial function, metabolism, inflammation, and energy pathways.

Full product details are available at the Lifecode Gx website. Please note that this is a practitioner-only site; tests must be ordered through the clinic.

Turnaround Time

Laboratory processing typically takes 2–3 weeks after sample submission.

What to Expect

Following testing, our clinicians will provide a detailed, personalised interpretation of your results, alongside lifestyle and nutritional recommendations based on your genetic profile.
