Genetic Predisposition DNA Test

Will establish your genetic risk to 35 different diseases and conditions including some of the most common cancers and old age illnesses. Only £195

Only £195 with results in 4-5 weeks

Our Genetic Predisposition DNA Test will establish your genetic risk to 35 different diseases including some of the most common cancers and old age diseases. This test will help you determine whether you carry certain mutations in your DNA which are known to be related to specific hereditary illnesses. The results will establish the probability of developing the disease over the course of your life by reporting whether your predisposition to each disease is above or below the average risk of the general population. The price of the test starts at £195 and is for testing 1 person. Results are emailed in 4-5 weeks from receipt of samples.

Taking Better Control of Your Health & Managing Disease Risk

Genetic Health tests are the latest development in DNA testing helping people to discover more about their health at a genetic level. Genetic predisposition DNA testing (or genetic health testing) enables you to take better control of your life and health. By knowing which diseases you stand a greater than average chance of developing, you can make changes to your lifestyle and diet to lessen the chances of developing the illness. This DNA test might be even more useful if you have a history of a certain condition in the family. Perhaps the result might, much to your relief, tell you that you do not carry the disease-causing mutation for the hereditary illness and can therefore put your mind at rest.

Prevention is better than cure and when it comes to many illnesses, the most effective treatment is that which is administered when the disease is in its earliest stages. Knowing you are at risk of a disease means having regular checkups and following the right plan to reduce your risk.

How the Genetic Predisposition DNA Test Works

This genetic health DNA test is based on the analysis of 139 SNPs (Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) including the most relevant SNPs for each condition. These are genetic variations occurring between individuals with each SNP representing a unit or building block which we call a “nucleotide”. These SNPs can alter the way a gene functions and affect protein synthesis. Some SNPs are known to increase a person’s risk of getting a particular disease. Scientists have studied many of the genetic variations that are associated with certain diseases and can today confirm whether an individual carries these variations through a genetic DNA test.

How Should You Go About a Genetic Health DNA Test?

First and foremost, to be able to develop a sensible and effective plan of action following the results of this test you will need to work together with a doctor, genetic counsellor or a qualified nutritionist. Only somebody qualified can really help you understand the implications of the results and what changes are best made to your lifestyle, diet, exercise routine etc. They can also help you understand more about any family risks and hereditary issues as well as providing support and advice. Further to this, it is important to note that people with a high predisposition to a disease do not necessarily develop the illness. The NHS provides information about genetic counselling. It is important to note that in addition to your genes, external environmental factors as well as lifestyle and diet all play a role in whether a disease develops or not.

How Are Samples Collected for This DNA Test?

Samples for a genetic predisposition DNA test are collected using a simple home DNA sample collection kit. DNA required for the test is collected using sterile mouth swabs provided inside the kit. Step-by-step instructions and consent forms are also included.

You can view sample collection instructions on our How to Collect DNA Samples page.

Important Information Regarding Breast Cancer

Our Genetic Predisposition test examines a limited number of genes (40 SNPs, 26 genes and additional intergenic SNPs) associated with breast cancer and will report whether your genetic risk is above or below average. Our test is NOT a full gene screen and should not be interpreted as a clinical result. If you require a clinical result confirming whether or not you carry the gene variant known to greatly increase the chance of developing breast cancer then you should order a full BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 test.

Please read our Health and Clinical Testing Terms and Conditions carefully and make sure you understand them before placing an order.

Dog Allergy Testing Kit Review
Hello Team, I would love to thank all involved in testing my dog allergies. Since that test she finally lives her life itch free as it enabled us to avoid products causing her allergic reaction. I am very grateful for this report as her health massively improved after we removed all listed products from her diet. Since that time I have been suggesting other dog owners which battle similar issue to use your service. 5* from Blue.

Dog Allergy Test Kit Review
We had our dog allergy tested with you last year. We were advised that it is not a good enough test by our vet and many others online. This however couldn't be more wrong. We used the results to remove foods from her diet and even hypo-allergenic shampoos etc. Since she turned 1 years old we had her allergy tested by blood at the vet to see if she had out grown any of these allergies. The results were exactly the same as we were given by yourselves. Everything in red she is still allergic to. Without your help I'm not sure how we would of been able to help her in her first year. Especially given that she is allergic to almost everything hypoallergenic.

Dog Allergy Testing Review
Please forward my praise to your superiors with regards to your customer attention - thank you for all the communication at all times, and making sure all OK. Much appreciated. 1 day into eliminating salmon oil from her diet (daily supplement I was giving her for for her arthritis) and the turkey menus she is considerably better, all in 24 hrs. Can’t wait to see how she improves within a few weeks of elimination.
