Optimal Diet for Weight Loss:
Optimal Diet for Weight Loss:
Everyone’s optimal diet is different and is based on their genes and current state of health. In this section, we address questions such as:
•Do you have issues that may increase inflammatory weight gain such as oxalate, histamine, lactose, or sulfur sensitivity?
•Would popular diets like the Ketogenic diet or the Adkin’s diet work well for weight loss or does your body respond better to more traditional low-calorie or low carbohydrate diets?
•What role does sleep play in weight loss and management?
•Is intermittent fasting a successful strategy for weight loss or will it result in excess inflammation or hormonal imbalances?
The answers to these questions will help you begin to learn what is the best diet for you by uncovering inflammatory triggers in your food and providing lifestyle, supplement and diet changes that will significantly improve your health.
When choosing your optimal diet, we must also take into consideration the state of your gut health, genetic and lifestyle intolerances and how these factors interact with your immune system. The OptimalYouDx ® is not a comprehensive list of genes that impact diet. You can find a more inclusive list of genes, including genes that impact nutrient and carbohydrate metabolism as well as gut health and disease risk, in the Omics Optimal DietDx ® genome panel.

Optimal Exercise for Weight Loss:
Optimal Exercise for Weight Loss:
As with diet and inflammation, there are genes that determine what type of exercise is ideal for weight loss. In this section of the panel we discover if you are ideally suited for endurance sports like marathons or if your body is more suited for weightlifting. In some cases, excessive high intensity sports result in further inflammation and may actually be inhibiting your weight loss! In other cases, you may have genes that pre-determine excessive bulking for heavy weightlifting. These are important discoveries and most importantly, modifiable not only with behaviors but often with biochemistry!
The OptimalYouDx ® is not a comprehensive list of genes that impact exercise. You can find a more inclusive list of genes, including genes that impact predict your injury risk, recovery needs, V02max, ergogonics, and more in the Omics SportDx ® genome panel.
