How does GeneBlueprint compare to other genetic prediction scores and products?

• Consumers should carefully consider what type of information they are looking to receive from their test results.
• Some genetic testing companies test for ancestral information, others for likelihood of disease, and others test with the purpose of being able to provide lifestyle recommendations based on the consumer’s DNA.
• Once you’ve decided what it is that you want your test results to tell you, it is important to consider how each DNA testing company will arrive at those results.
• The final thing to consider when selecting a genetic testing company is what you will receive from the company when the testing is complete.

Direct-to-consumer DNA testing has become a burgeoning industry, so you may be wondering why you might choose GeneBlueprint over one of our competitors. Good question!

Well, the fact is that not all genetics testing companies are the same. Oftentimes, there are significant differences in the type and number of genetic variants that they test for. This means that consumers should carefully consider, what type of information they are looking to receive from their test results.

WHAT DO DNA TESTING COMPANIES LOOK FOR?

Genetic testing companies can be broadly divided into three main groups based on what consumers are looking to discover from their results. Some companies test for ancestral information, others for likelihood of disease, and others test with the purpose of being able to provide lifestyle recommendations based on the consumer’s DNA.

GeneBlueprint falls into the lifestyle category and focuses its efforts on diet and fitness. An individual’s DNA can tell us a lot about the best nutrition and fitness regime that will help them achieve their goals. Some people are genetically more sensitive to carbohydrates for example and some have more success burning fat with certain types of exercise over others. Through genetic testing, we can develop personalized programs that will set our clients on the right path for success.

WHAT DO DNA TESTING COMPANIES LOOK AT?

Once you’ve decided what it is that you want your test results to tell you, it is important to consider how each DNA testing company will arrive at those results. In other words, how many genetic variants will the company use to develop its recommendations?

Since an individual’s genetic makeup is quite complex, the more genetic variants that a testing company looks at, the better. And in this respect, the differences in testing companies can be quite significant.

GeneBlueprint prides itself on having some of the highest standards in the industry when it comes to genetic testing, and provides its clients with access to over 20 genetic prediction scores. These are determined by testing for over 10 million genetic variants, using a technologically advanced process.

WHAT WILL THE DNA TESTING COMPANY GIVE YOU?

The final thing to consider when selecting a genetic testing company is what you will receive from the company when the testing is complete.

If you are having DNA testing done for the purpose of developing a better diet and exercise plan, then it is important that the results of the test be easy to understand and that any recommendations be tailored to suit your particular genetic makeup.

With GeneBlueprint, clients receive unlimited lifetime access to their results through a web portal. They also receive a 30-day fitness and meal plan which has been specially crafted for their unique genetic composition. Our interactive web portal allows you to track your progress and stay motivated.

If you are looking to work smarter and not harder to achieve your health and fitness goals, then it makes sense to turn to a DNA testing company to give you a plan that is right for you. And if you are looking for the most accurate and comprehensive genetic testing to support that plan, then it makes sense to turn to GeneBlueprint.
