DNA – your individual blueprint
What is DNA?
Your DNA is in every cell of your body and contains the genetic information that makes you unique. It influences not only external characteristics like hair or eye color, but also how your metabolism works , how well your body utilizes nutrients (food), your physical regeneration, whether you are genetically predisposed to being overweight – and how you react to external influences such as stress, exercise, or diet .
What many people don't know: Your DNA is as unique as a fingerprint. That's why it's also called a "genetic fingerprint" —a DNA test can definitively establish your identity.

The influence of your genetics
Through DNA analysis you can learn everything about…
Lose weight
What does your body process efficiently, and what does it tend to store (making you gain weight)? Do you want to know if you're more of a carbohydrate type, or if you should perhaps consume more protein or fat, and which diet will be most effective for you? Find out with a DNA analysis including a personalized nutrition plan!
Nutrition
You may already know that there are substances (fiber, vitamins, minerals) that your body can't metabolize as well as others. This can lead to intolerances, such as to lactose or other substances. We'll tell you which foods you should avoid.
Sports and fitness
Is your body better suited for endurance, speed, or strength training? Find out what type of athlete you are and how you can train more effectively. Not every exercise is equally suitable for everyone.
Longevity
How can YOU care for your skin and which micronutrients do you particularly need to stay young and healthy?

Your DNA is not your destiny!
Your DNA is the crucial key to your feel-good body, your tailored nutrition and diet, as well as for your better fitness and greater well-being.
Why should I have a DNA analysis done?
Our metabolism influences how our body converts food into energy, processes nutrients, and eliminates waste. This encompasses everything from the need for macronutrients and vitamins, to digestion, your overall well-being, skin, weight, and much more. It's as unique as you are, and genes explain why some diets, exercises, or even skincare products help one person while potentially causing more problems for another. Anyone who's ever tried an anti-acne cream and ended up with even more breakouts knows exactly what we're talking about. Depending on what you'd like to improve, we offer various metabolism tests .
Targeted weight loss without guesswork
Have you tried many diets, but the desired weight loss either doesn't occur or is only short-lived?
With the The Vitality DNA test reveals which foods and sports are best suited to you. You'll gain insights into your vitamin and mineral needs, helping you lose weight effectively and stay fit without the dreaded yo-yo effect. Personalized recommendations allow you to optimize your diet and training.
Optimal nutrition based on your DNA
Are you looking for a long-term solution to sustainably improve your health and well-being, but don't know where to start?
The The Infinity DNA Metabolic Test reveals how your body processes macronutrients, stores energy, what your ideal sleep rhythm looks like, and which vitamins and minerals you need. You'll learn how these nutrients influence your physical strength or weakness and what your individual metabolic type is. This knowledge allows you to specifically address your body's needs and optimize your health.
The complete solution for you
You are looking for a holistic solution to optimize your health and skincare, but are unsure which approaches will really work for you.
The name says it all: Learn through the This all-in-one test tells you everything you need to know about optimal nutrition, your metabolism, and your immune system. You'll receive tailored recommendations on how to get fit, lose weight effectively, and find the right skincare.
In case you have any further questions:
How do I find the right test for me?
- If you're finding it difficult to choose the right metabolism test, you can use our free [test/assessment/etc.]. Use the product finder . We'll find the best product to help you achieve your goals based on a few simple questions.
Are the metabolic tests truly scientific?
- Yes, our analyses are conducted according to the highest quality and security standards. We use whole-genome sequencing (WGS) for this purpose, and the data and results are stored strictly in accordance with the GDPR and ISO 27001 regulations. Furthermore, we only test markers that demonstrate scientifically sound relevance. Learn more about us and our Science .
What different types of tests are there?
- In addition to DNA metabolism tests, there are also the Home self-tests for thyroid, iron and vitamin D levels, Laboratory or blood tests to detect drug and food intolerances and Gut tests that can be used to analyze your gut microbiome.
How long does it take to evaluate the DNA metabolism tests?
After your saliva sample arrives at the lab, it takes approximately 15–25 business days for the complete analysis (including the analytical method and validation of the results) to be available as a PDF in your user account. If you ordered your analysis in booklet form, printing and shipping will take an additional 2–3 weeks.
Our laboratory blood tests take approximately 15 business days after your blood sample arrives at the lab. The at-home self-test takes approximately 10 minutes .
Can I take a metabolism test from mybody if I live in Switzerland?

Even if some of them are considered disadvantageous, they're still a part of you and make you as unique as you are.
Interesting facts about genetics: from A as in ADRB2 gene to Z as in weight gain
To give you a glimpse into why our metabolic tests can provide insights into topics like ideal weight, exercise, and overall well-being, here's a brief excerpt from the infinitely complex universe of genetics . And we really do mean brief, because no gene has only a single function or is involved in just one process. Nevertheless, so-called markers provide important information:
Genetic diversity and metabolism : Genetic differences influence how efficiently our body burns calories and stores energy. For example, variants in the FTO gene can lead to increased fat storage and a higher risk of obesity. These genetic differences also affect how well our body processes various macronutrients such as fats and carbohydrates.
Fat burning and the ADRB2 gene : The ADRB2 gene influences how efficiently our body utilizes fat as an energy source. Variants of this gene can affect fat burning during exercise, which in turn impacts weight and overall fitness.
Macronutrient processing and the FTO gene : The FTO gene is also associated with the processing of fats and carbohydrates. People with certain variants of this gene tend to store more fat tissue and may have difficulty losing weight. A metabolic test can therefore reveal reasons why one diet or another has been more frustrating than successful for you.
Vitamin D metabolism : Genetic differences influence how efficiently our body synthesizes and uses vitamin D. This has implications for bone health and the immune system, as vitamin D plays an important role in calcium absorption and immune function.
Stress processing and metabolism : Genes also influence how our body reacts to stress. Genes like NR3C1 regulate the response to the stress hormone cortisol, which in turn can affect metabolism. Inefficient stress processing can lead to weight gain and other metabolic problems.
