In ADDITION to your lab report we provide the following options which are INCLUDED in the package prices:

A) Follow up personalised written report produced by our clinical team highlighting dietary and lifestyle advice plus links to supplement protocols, specific doses and any further testing requirements included.

B) Follow up 30-minute video call to discuss your results and answer any questions. Includes recording for private use and supplement links. Option to upgrade to 45-min for an additional £30.

C) Both Zoom call and written report (Zoom first, written follows).

Every patient will get a colour coded lab report - your choice is how to receive your personalised interpretation of this report. You have a choice of a video call or a written summary or both. This includes the cost of a nurse service to your home to take the bloods - suitable for over 18’s only - mainland UK residents only.

The video call is an ideal option if you are new to DNA testing and need it explaining in ‘real’ terms. It also allows you to ask your practitioner questions about your variants and how these may apply to your health now. Zoom calls are recorded (unless you request otherwise) and you are sent a link to download your video after your call so you can refer back to this for years to come as a reminder. We send you your download link on the understanding these calls are not shared on social media / uploaded to public forums etc, this is for your private use (please note zoom links last 2 weeks so please make sure you download and save locally). You will also get a short email after your call with supplement links your practitioner recommends. Calls are provided in English only.

The written summary is better for those who struggle with spoken English and want a full written explanation of their variants and links to supplement suggestions. Some patients feel more comfortable with a written interpretation as a document you can always refer back to, but essentially both options will give you the same information just in different formats. Written summaries are emailed alongside lab reports.

The test is a simple, non-invasive oral sample (cheek swab). The only requirement is to abstain from eating/drinking for at least 1 hour before testing. The sample is placed in a tube with a stabilising capsule and returned with a signed consent form. Please use our details under ‘practitioner’ on the lab form.

There are no special storage or transport requirements and you can return any day. Each test kit is supplied with a return envelope which is prepaid for returns from within the UK and can be simply dropped into a post box. It is rare but some samples do fail laboratory standards if you do not extract enough DNA onto the mouth swab. You can take this test at any time of day, there is no need to stop taking medications or supplements with this test. The most common reason for sample fails is patients forgetting to include the stabilising capsule included in your kit or not returning the consent form. Please DO NOT open the contents of the stabilising capsule, include it whole. Please ensure you do not eat, drink or smoke for 1 hour prior to taking test. In the event your test fails laboratory standards you will receive 1 free replacement kit. UK orders are re-posted at no additional charge however international orders will need to pay additional delivery charges for failed tests.

Every human has a slightly different genetic makeup. We inherit our gene variants from both parents so although you may have similar genes to your child you will not have identical gene mutations. Our genes are the same from the moment we are born so you only ever need to do this test once in your lifetime and you will have the data on your gene variants for life.

The returns package provided has a freepost address on it so if you live in the UK you can simply pop your sample into any postbox for free returns. We do recognise that some patients prefer to send samples recorded / special delivery for peace of mind. If you choose this option, you will need to use a different address to return your sample: Lifecode Gx, c/o WeWork, Unit 1 Provost & East Building, 145 City Road, London, EC1V 1AZ

Yes we can now ship this test overseas to selected countries. Please select your country at checkout. If you want to order multiple DNA tests for friends or family we can package these together so you only pay one shipping cost. We use UPS for European orders and DHL for other countries. The test kits (swab and stabilising capsule) are declared as “no commercial value” and usually do not require customs import fees. However, some destination country customs agents may apply charges. Usually this fee is around 17 Euro but can vary.

You are responsible for arranging and paying for return postage. The return package is low weight and does not require special control. Please return your sample via tracked / courier service to: Lifecode Gx, c/o WeWork, Unit 1 Provost & East Building, 145 City Road, London, EC1V 1AZ, United Kingdom. For international orders we include 2 swabs per patient to reduce chance of test failure. In the very rare case both fail, refer to our returns policy.

All reports are provided in English.

If possible, we recommend you do have a blood test to check your vitamin and mineral levels to optimise your DNA testing. This is available in the UK only and involves having a nurse come to your home/hotel to take your sample. Patients must be over 18 years old for this test.

We offer a wide range of additional testing including genetic ageing, hormones (testosterone / estrogen, cortisol, thyroid), microbiome, leaky gut analysis, food intolerance, amino acids & homocysteine, mould / toxin testing. If any further tests are recommended, this will be advised in your Zoom call or written report.

As long as cheek swabs are stored in the tube provided in the buccal swab kit, samples remain viable for up to 6 months.

No. As we're testing the genetic code, which is fixed, the test is not impacted by illness, infections, medication, the food you eat, or supplements you take. To avoid contamination, please abstain from eating / drinking for at least 1 hour before testing. Continue taking all your medications and supplements as normal and list them on your patient form at checkout.

Once you have ordered, you will receive an email notification when your kit has been shipped to you. UK delivery is Royal Mail 1st Class (allow 3 working days). You can then freepost your sample back to the labs. We will email you once your sample is received. Genotyping results are typically available in 2–3 weeks. Written summaries take approx 4 weeks. You will not hear from us during sample processing unless there is an issue.

Results will be emailed to the address provided at checkout. If you need to update this, please contact us at info@mybodyfabulous.co.uk
