DetoxiGenomic® Profile & SNP Testing: Understanding Genetic Risk
What is Precision Medicine?
According to the CDC, precision medicine (also known as personalized medicine) is a tailored approach to patient care that considers genetics, lifestyle, and environmental factors. A key component of this approach is Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs), which are common genetic variations that can influence a patient’s risk for various chronic diseases. SNP testing helps clinicians identify these genetic predispositions and customize treatments for better outcomes.
Why Consider SNP Testing?
Research has uncovered thousands of SNPs that are associated with almost every chronic condition. While genetic mutations are rare and can cause significant health risks, SNPs are more common and typically present subtler effects. Rather than causing severe illness, SNPs can reduce cellular function and impact overall quality of life.
Who Can Benefit from SNP Testing?
Essentially, everyone has SNPs. Understanding these genetic variations can empower patients and clinicians to make more informed health decisions. Genomic testing can reveal hidden polymorphisms that may contribute to chronic disease risks. It’s important to note that having a SNP does not mean you are destined to develop a related condition. Many genes have flexible expressions and are influenced by factors like diet, lifestyle, and environment.
Actionable Insights Through SNP Testing
In some cases, SNP testing may guide further monitoring of specific biomarkers. For example, if a patient has a polymorphism in the MTHFR gene, monitoring levels of homocysteine could be more critical. This proactive approach helps clinicians to adjust treatments and support overall health through personalized care strategies.

Once you have completed the test (buccal swab – [click here to learn more]), Dr. J will thoroughly analyse your results and create a personalised report. This report will be tailored to your unique genetic profile and current health status, providing clear, actionable next steps to help you improve and protect your overall well-being.
Dr. J’s recommendations may include targeted lifestyle modifications, dietary adjustments, and specific supplements designed to support your body’s needs based on your genetic data. Additionally, you will receive guidance on how to optimise your environment and daily habits to reduce any potential health risks identified through your test results.
Once the report is complete, Dr. J will reach out to schedule a consultation via Zoom or Teams to discuss your results in detail and answer any questions you may have. This personalised consultation is all included in the price, ensuring that you have the support and understanding needed to take full advantage of your tailored wellness plan.
With this comprehensive approach, you’ll gain a deeper understanding of your body’s unique needs and how to address them effectively, empowering you to take control of your health journey with confidence and clarity.
