This test is useful if you want to find out any of the following:
Why you might be suffering with low energy and/or low iron
Why you might struggle to build muscle
Why you might struggle to conceive or have suffered regular miscarriages
Is genetics responsible for your low mood, depression or anxiety?
Why you might have a diagnosis for ADHD, autism or OCD?
Why you might suffer with addictive behaviour and what you can do about it.

The Metals & Minerals Report- £399
-
Minerals are vital to your health — supporting everything from energy production and immunity to hormone balance, brain function, and bone strength. But did you know your ability to absorb, use, and eliminate these nutrients (and toxic metals) is influenced by your genes?
This test explores your personal genetic blueprint to see how efficiently your body handles essential minerals like magnesium, zinc, iron, and selenium, while also highlighting any challenges with clearing toxic heavy metals such as mercury, lead, or arsenic.
By understanding how your body naturally processes these elements, you can make smarter decisions around your diet, supplements, and lifestyle to reduce risk, optimise function, and support longevity.
-
We’re all exposed to heavy metals through air, water, food, and even household products. While the body is designed to detoxify them, some people have genetic variants that slow this process down, leading to toxic build-up, inflammation, and long-term health concerns.
At the same time, essential minerals like calcium, magnesium, iron, and zinc are needed for over 300 enzyme reactions — but not everyone absorbs or utilises them effectively.
This test helps answer important questions like:
Why might you be low in magnesium, even with a good diet?
Do you need more support clearing mercury or arsenic?
Could your fatigue, anxiety, or hormone symptoms be mineral-related?
Are you absorbing enough zinc to support immunity and skin health?
How does your methylation affect your ability to detox metals?
If you’re already following a personalised health protocol, using methylation or detox strategies (like those recommended by Gary Brecka), this test takes it to the next level — helping you get even more specific with your support.

The Thyroid Report - £399
-
The thyroid is a small but powerful gland in your neck that plays a major role in regulating your metabolism, energy levels, and overall vitality. It produces hormones that influence how every cell in your body functions — especially when it comes to energy production and balance.
Your thyroid produces:
T4 (Thyroxine) – This is the main hormone produced by the thyroid, but it needs to be converted into T3, the active form, in order to support your metabolism and energy.
T3 (Triiodothyronine) – This is the active thyroid hormone that drives metabolism and supports cellular energy.
RT3 (Reverse T3) – This acts as a brake, blocking the effects of T3 when your body is under stress.
Calcitonin – Helps regulate calcium levels in your blood.
Your thyroid is closely connected to the Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Thyroid (HPT) axis, and imbalances can lead to underactive (hypothyroid), overactive (hyperthyroid), or autoimmune conditions such as Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease. All of these affect how your body transports, activates, and responds to thyroid hormones.
-
This genetic thyroid test goes beyond standard thyroid blood panels by identifying genetic variations (SNPs) that can impact how well your thyroid hormones are produced, activated, and used by the body. It gives you insight into how your genes, nutrients, and lifestyle interact — something often missed in conventional testing.
If you’re already familiar with Gary Brecka’s approach, this is the kind of deep-dive analysis that helps connect the dots between methylation, detox, inflammation, and thyroid health.
A well-functioning thyroid is essential for:
Heart health – It regulates your heart rate and blood flow.
Brain and nervous system – Impacts focus, mood, and cognition.
Digestion – Influences how food is moved and absorbed.
Hormonal health and fertility – Key for menstruation and reproductive function.
Genetic and environmental factors, including nutrient status (iodine, selenium, tyrosine), exposure to toxins (like fluoride or mould), stress, and infections, can all impact thyroid function. This test helps uncover where your vulnerabilities lie — and how to support them.
The Genetic Thyroid Test examines key genes involved in the entire thyroid hormone lifecycle — from production in the thyroid gland to activation in peripheral tissues and cellular uptake.
It looks at:
Thyroid hormone synthesis, transport, and metabolism
Conversion of T4 to T3
Nutrient cofactor pathways (e.g. vitamins D & A)
How your body handles stress, toxins, and inflammation
Genetic predispositions to autoimmunity

Detoxification - £399
-
Every day, your body is exposed to a wide range of toxins — from pollution, pesticides, and food additives to medications, alcohol, and even your own hormones. Your detoxification system works hard to neutralise and eliminate these substances, so they don’t build up and disrupt your health.
Most of this work is carried out by the liver, but the gut, kidneys, and lungs also play a role. Detoxification converts harmful, fat-soluble toxins into water-soluble compounds that can be safely excreted through bile or urine.
There are three key phases involved:
Phase I – Activation: Prepares toxins for breakdown through enzyme reactions.
Phase II – Conjugation: Neutralises and packages toxins for elimination.
Phase III – Elimination: Moves these substances out of the body via antiporter transport systems.
If these pathways aren’t functioning optimally — due to genetic variants, nutrient insufficiencies, or a high toxic load — symptoms can start to appear across the body, affecting hormone balance, digestion, immune function, and more.
-
Your detoxification capacity is personal. It’s influenced by your genes, your environment, your nutrient intake, and your lifestyle — including how you respond to stress, caffeine, alcohol, and medications.
This test identifies genetic variations (SNPs) that may slow down or compromise your detox pathways. It gives you powerful insight into:
Why your body may struggle with certain toxins or chemicals
Where support is needed with key nutrients and co-factors
How to better manage your environment and lifestyle to reduce toxin burden
This is especially relevant if you're following Gary Brecka-style protocols, using methylation support, or looking to optimise your health at the cellular level.

Histamine Intolerance - £399
-
Histamine is a natural chemical messenger produced by the body that plays a role in everything from digestion and immune response to sleep, brain function, and inflammation. It acts as both a neurotransmitter and an immune signal, released by mast cells and basophils in response to allergens or stressors.
While most people associate histamine with hay fever or food allergies, it actually has a much broader role in regulating your body’s internal balance — including mood, memory, gut motility, and blood vessel dilation.
When your body can’t break histamine down efficiently, levels build up and symptoms resembling allergies or chronic inflammation can develop — this is known as histamine intolerance.
-
Histamine is meant to be broken down after it has done its job — mainly by two key enzymes:
DAO (Diamine Oxidase) – active in the gut
HNMT (Histamine-N-Methyltransferase) – active in the brain and lungs
When these pathways are compromised — due to genetic factors, gut issues, or lifestyle stressors — histamine can accumulate in the body and trigger a wide range of symptoms, from migraines and skin rashes to digestive problems and anxiety.
This test explores your genetic predisposition to histamine intolerance and helps identify where your system may need extra support. If you're dealing with mystery symptoms, this test helps uncover what’s happening at a cellular level — and how to respond effectively.
