Please note: feedback (and your report) from this test can only be obtained via a consultation with a registered DNAlysis practitioner. Please contact VitaGene for assistance in finding a practitioner from our database of registered practitioners. There will be an additional fee for the consultation.
Our socio-economic environment has rarely been more stressful; resilience is the ability to ‘bounce back’ and mentally and emotionally cope under adverse conditions. This genetic test provides insight into your genetic resilience potential and is designed to help you manage your stress and perform optimally under adverse conditions.
About this test
The report can determine an individuals’ genetic potential for resilience and provide ways in which intrinsic strengths can be amplified and existing weaknesses reduced. The gene-based action steps you will receive in your report centre on highly individualised lifestyle strategies that leverage diet, targeted activity, lifestyle changes, and nutritional supplements.
Ideal for
DNA Resilience® is a genetic test for individuals looking to cope better under stressful or demanding conditions, or lead more effectively in business, sport and life. DNA Resilience® can help enhance your mental, emotional and physical health, and inform lifestyle strategies that enable you to live up to your fullest potential, overcome stress and excel in everyday life, from work to home.
The science
DNA Resilience® reports on the seven key molecular areas that have the greatest influence on resilience. They are: stress axis, oxytocin, the neurotrophic pathway, neuropeptide Y, norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin.
Given the hereditability of emotional regulation (30%), temperament (±56%) and cognitive aptitude (>99%), a critical knowledge and understanding of individual genetics and environmental influences can unlock exceptional resilience and a performance advantage regardless of circumstances.
‘From potential to performance’. ‘From surviving to thriving’
Test results
The genes included in the DNA resilience® test have a strong influence over the important biological pathways that influence how you respond to stressful situations in life, work, and sport.
Knowledge of your individual biological response to stress can inform your personal choices with regard to diet, supplements, exercise, and lifestyle strategies to optimise mental health and performance.
The process
- Order the test (or combination test) and we will contact you regarding selecting your consulting practitioner (feedback can only be given to you through a consulting practitioner).
- Collect your DNA sample using the DNAlysis test kit that is sent to you.
- Sample is sent to the DNAlysis laboratory and report sent to your healthcare practitioner within 3 to 4 weeks..
- Explore your DNA. Your healthcare practitioner will notify you once they receive the report to set up a consultation. Your data is securely stored for future reports, if desired.
