addressing the underlying cause of the health issue is always the ultimate goal ​​​

Gut Health  

Struggling with poor digestive health? 
You are not alone, up to 50% of people struggle with IBS, SIBO, constipation, diarrhoea,
​food intolerances, reflux, dysbiosis, bloating, the list goes on ......

At SmartGENES we have 24 years experience
​of focusing on gut health issues.

DNA Test

With a simple once-only saliva test,
​you can discover your DNA blueprint
​
Including methylation genes: MTHFR, MTR, MTRR,
MTHFD1, FUT2, TCN2, CBS, COMT, SLC19A1 and PEMT

​Genetic testing has evolved.
By choosing a functional genetic test, you will learn where your underlying weaknesses are in the main functional pathways of
the body.  While your genes cannot be changed, how they are
​expressed can be changed by utilitising epigenetics. 

This is the point of DNA testing. 
​We can make changes that will keep us healthy and well.
