A: Mutations, if any, will be listed in a tabular column, and the likely MTHFR enzyme levels will be represented in a color-coded bar under the Prominent MTHFR SNPs section of your report. This makes it easy to see whether you have any significant mutations and their potential impact on enzyme activity.
A: We analyze 14 methylation genes: MTHFR, MTRR, MTR, MTHFD1, COMT, AHCY, BHMT, SHMT, CBS, CPS-1, CTH, MAO-A, MAT1A, and NOS3. This comprehensive analysis helps provide a detailed understanding of your methylation capacity and potential genetic issues.
A: Under the “recommendations” section, you’ll find information on whether you likely require a methylfolate supplement. However, it is recommended that you take this report to your physician, who can recommend the appropriate supplements for you based on your overall health and specific needs.
A: The genetic markers used in the report are based on scientific studies published in reputable journals. However, genetics is just one factor that influences methylation; diet, lifestyle, and environmental factors also play significant roles.
After uploading your DNA data, the report is typically generated and shared with you via email within 12-24 hours.
A: Your privacy is our top priority. We adhere to strict protocols to ensure your genetic data and personal information are kept secure and confidential. Your data is never shared with third parties without your explicit consent.
You can place your order now and upload your DNA data anytime. There’s no time limit on when you can upload the data. DNA data can be obtained through any genetic test on the market. Popular options include MyHeritageDNA, AncestryDNA, and 23andMe. Xcode Life is not affiliated with any of these companies.
