DNA Core®
What is DNACore?
DNACore is the flagship test for using genetics as the foundation for personalised interventions in improving patient health.
We’ve brought together the information provided by 3 existing tests – DNAHealth, DNA Diet, and DNASport into one comprehensive and easy-to-understand test report.
What health areas does it cover?
This test reports on gene-environment interactions and provides personalized, easy-to-follow, summarized recommendations on four core areas:
- Key biological processes that drive health, including methylation, detoxification, and lipid metabolism
- Macro- and micronutrient requirements based on genetic response
- Weight management insights, such as obesity risk and eating behavior
- Exercise responsiveness, including power and endurance potential, and recovery time.
Assessment of 71 genes involved in key metabolic processes:
- Lipid Metabolism
- Insulin Sensitivity
- Methylation
- Phase I Detoxification
- Phase I Detoxification – Caffeine
- Phase II Detoxification
- Antioxidant Enzymes
- Inflammation
- Vitamin D metabolism & Bone Health
- Vitamin A Metabolism
- Vitamin B12 Transport
- Lactose Intolerance

How does it work?
A BloodSpot Analysis test kit will be sent to you by mail. All it requires is a few drops of blood from one of your fingers. Once completed, a booking can be made with the designated courier to collect the kit (with no additional charges), which will be delivered to the laboratory for testing.
How long will it take for my order to arrive?
All test kits are shipped and are expected to arrive within a few working days. The shipped test kits are considered concluded orders and are non-refundable any longer.
Average processing time:
18-21 days, after the test kits are returned to the lab. Return tests to the lab within 90 days of the order.
How do I take a sample?
All kits include straightforward instructions, allowing you to obtain a sample at home easily.
Are the tests reliable?
Yes! We use leading accredited laboratories to ensure that our testing is of the highest quality.
What will I receive after the test has been processed?
A report will then be generated with detailed information about the tested areas and recommended interventions. The report is presented in a patient-friendly manner so you can understand the possible issues and act upon the clearly formulated recommendations. You will be provided with a secure login on the lab platforms to view and download the results.
What happens after I receive the results?
You will be presented with the option to book an appointment with the doctor to further discuss the test results. The appointment will last about 30-60 minutes (includes the time the doctor needs to study the results), during which professional interpretation, further advice, and a possible therapeutic plan, based on your results, will be provided.
Privacy policy:
The DNA and the original sample material are destroyed after 3 months, so that there are no names or other identifiers on the samples. The samples are analysed only for the SNPs that are included in the tests at DNALife, and no other research or analyses are performed without separate permission from the patient. We do not give or sell the results to any third parties.
Important note:
