I think it’s safe to say that most of us try to keep our health and nutrition in mind as we live our day-to-day lives (unless it’s that week between Christmas and New Year’s, then all bets are off!)
It is so important to understand what our body needs in order to function, which is why having knowledge of our DNA and how we’re made up is crucial to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. Simply taking one little DNA test has the power to analyze and show you exactly what your body needs to thrive.
That is a lot easier said than done…until DNApal came along!
This week 3 Sided Cube CEO, Rich and Head of Client Success, Gabby chat with Vicky Godfrey, about how a DNA test can improve your health.
Meet Vicky
I remember just standing in Tesco in a daze thinking, I just want someone to tell me what I should eat for my DNA, and that is where the idea for my DNApal was born!
Vicky Godfrey is the Co-Founder of DNApal and believes that prevention is better than a cure. By using DNA data to support your health and foundations, you can personalize your approach and optimize certain unique pathways in the body.
The designers of DNApal have worked carefully and creatively to bring you a DNA test that can help you live a longer, healthier life. Vicky is a strong believer in prevention over cure; she, alongside Registered Nutritional Therapist and Nutrigenomics Specialist Kate Scott, founded DNApal to help people understand their genetic makeup and how they can support themselves most efficiently.
About DNApal
Unlike most DNA tests, which can confirm anything from your family tree to your compatibility with another person, DNApal analyses the way you’re built to determine what you need to maintain a healthy lifestyle. By following the analysis of a simple cheek swab, DNApal is able to gain insights into your genetic make-up and what areas of your body may require more focus and give you accurate nutrition and lifestyle advice that’s completely unique to you.
All the advice you receive from DNApal is completely actionable, meaning any potential lifestyle changes are not difficult to understand or implement, and the results will also support you in various aspects of your life, such as:
- How often you should move your body
- What food you should consume more or less of
- The areas of difficulty that could guide you to the food, exercise, and supplements that best suit you
