About the test

DNA Sport® analyses a range of different biological processes to provide insight into individuals’ unique genetic advantages and weaknesses. This helps to optimise exercise and training performance. The areas analysed include soft tissue and bone formation and modelling, oxidative stress, oxygenation influenced by blood flow and respiration, energy and fuel production and metabolism during exercise.

Analysing the genetic variations involved in these areas highlights unique physiological strengths and weaknesses, and how they can be exploited through training and diet. The test can be used to optimise power and endurance potential, guide exercise timings, minimise injury risk and create the best recovery protocol through training patterns and food plans.

This test requires four blood spots (collected on one card) from a single finger prick.

Disclaimer: This test is only available through a Healthpath Pro practitioner.
