Plant Based Health DNA – Mouth Swab

Package
Add Printed Report
 

Following a plant-based diet can be incredibly nourishing — but everyone processes nutrients differently. The Plant Based Health DNA test helps you understand how your body is genetically wired to absorb and use key nutrients commonly linked to vegan and vegetarian diets.

This test analyses genetic markers connected to nutrient metabolism, diet response and lifestyle factors. The results highlight how your body may process important nutrients such as vitamin B12, iron, vitamin D, calcium and omega-3 fats — nutrients that can sometimes require extra attention on a plant-focused diet. 


    If you wish to purchase multiple tests for people in the same household please add quantity as 1 for each test so that individual patient forms can be completed. You can keep adding multiple tests to the same basket as long as patients reside at the same address. For multiple tests for the same patient you only need to complete the patient form once.

    Optional Extras:

    • A4 sized colour printed brochure of your plant-based DNA results to be posted to you = £35

    • Add-on reports can be viewed for Histamine HERE or SKIN HERE

    SHIPPING AVAILABLE WORLDWIDE via FedEX - UK Delivery 2 days - Overseas Delivery 2-4 days

    This test is suitable from any age.

    70 Genetic Markers: The test analyses 70 evidence-based genetic variants linked to nutrition, metabolism, and lifestyle.

    Nutrient Metabolism: It identifies how your body processes key nutrients that can be challenging to manage on plant-based diets, such as Vitamin B12, Iron, Vitamin D, Omega-3 fats, and Calcium.

    Food Sensitivities: Includes screening for genetic predispositions to lactose intolerance and gluten sensitivity.

    Cardiometabolic Health: Reports on how your genes respond to sodium, caffeine, and saturated fats to manage heart health.

    Prevention of Deficiencies: Helps target specific plant-based supplements rather than taking a general multivitamin.

Our team will review your results alongside the patient information you have provided us with and highlight dietary, lifestyle and biohacking advice plus links to a personalised supplement protocol, including specific doses and any further testing required. This document is personalised to you and is 4–5 pages long depending on your results.

    B) Follow up 45-minute video call to discuss your results and answer any questions you have. You’ll be sent your DNA results and a link to book a time online. Appointments are usually available next day. Option to upgrade to 60 minutes for an additional £30. Calls include a supplement protocol and are recorded for your private use unless requested otherwise. If the patient is under 18, a parent or guardian must be present.

    C) Both Zoom call and written report with personalised next steps (Zoom call is first and written report follows). The written report is longer (6–8 pages) and addresses points discussed during the call.

    Once you have ordered via our website you will receive an email notification when your kit has been shipped via FedEx with a tracking number. Please allow 2–3 working days for your kit to arrive in the UK. You can then freepost your sample back via Royal Mail 1st class (UK only). USA, Australia, and Canada orders include prepaid return envelopes. All other international orders require you to arrange return courier postage.

    Once we receive your sample, we’ll confirm it via email. Your genotyping takes around 3 weeks. Results will be emailed to you and if you selected a support option then this will include either your written report or a link to book your Zoom call.

    If you opted for a printed copy of your results, you will receive a personalised A4 glossy brochure about 2 weeks after your PDF is emailed.

    Orders OUTSIDE UK, USA, AUSTRALIA & CANADA - Yes, we can now ship this test all over the world (with the exception of China, India, Mexico, Costa Rica, Iran, Lebanon and Russia). Please select your country at checkout. We use FedEx to deliver our kits, tracking is provided and deliveries usually arrive in 3-4 working days. The test kits are declared as '$2 per kit value' and usually (90% of the time) do not require customs import fees. However, some destination country customs agents may decide (unfortunately, it does seem to be at the discretion of the individual agent) to apply charges, and this is beyond our control and beyond the control of the courier. In the unlikely event this happens, your courier will notify you if an import fee is due before delivering to you. If you are contacted by customs, you should declare the package value as being $2 per test kit which will match the official lab document for a cotton bud swab. We can provide you with a copy of the commercial invoice, if required. We provide approved packaging for the return of the sample, but OUTSIDE UK, USA, AUSTRALIA & CANADA you are responsible for arranging and paying for return postage. All lab reports are provided in English.

    Yes — although prepaid return envelopes are provided, you can opt to use your own courier service. If you choose this, you will need to pay for return shipping. We can help provide any customs paperwork needed — just email us at info@mybodyfabulous.co.uk

    No — the genetic code is fixed and not affected by illness, infections, medications, food or supplements. Please list any medications or supplements on your patient form. If you're already taking the right supplements for your genes, we’ll confirm that. If anything is missing, we’ll provide recommendations and dosage.

    DNA samples remain viable for up to 6 months when stored in the provided buccal swab pouch.. All samples are processed in a CLIA-certified lab and destroyed after 6 months. Your DNA or data is never shared or sold. We use secure, encrypted servers and anonymised barcoding to ensure your privacy and security at every step.

    The plant-based DNA test is a simple, non-invasive cheek swab suitable for any age. Every person’s genetics are unique; children inherit variants from both parents, so they will not have identical gene mutations. Genes are set from birth, so you only need to do this test once in your lifetime and the variant data remains valid for life.
