About DNA Testing for Fitness

It is safe to say that modern genetics has been a rapidly advancing fields. Due to this, an amazing discovery found that all humans share more than 99% of their DNA. Nevertheless, despite this high number of genetic components, it is the remaining 1% variation that makes an individual completely different and unique to everyone else. This discovery has helped us understand that one approach to dietary and fitness will not be suitable for everyone. Instead, different strategies work for different people. Using this genetical knowledge and advanced technology, our aim is to provide an explanation for these diferences and offer answers to questions surrounding one’s diet, nutrition, exercise and metabolism.
