Helix Skin + Health + Diet Test
If your DNA is what makes you unique, what would be better than to base your skincare regime, diet and lifestyle behaviours on your individual genetic needs?
The optiphi Helix Skin Report allows you to fully understand your skin and where it's likely to be heading in the future, so you can plan for it. The results of the DNA Skin Test give you the knowledge and power to target these internal skin concerns, in combination to the external factors contributing to skin imperfections and aging, to greatly improve your skin's future.
The following key areas are considered in the DNA Skin test
Oxidative stress
Wrinkles, volume loss and glycation
Dermal sensitivity and detoxification
Inflammation of the skin
DNA protection and repair
Pigmentation and sun sensitivity
The optiphi Helix Health Report offers exclusive insight into genetic variations which have been associated with various health risks and concerns. Information obtained from this test will enable you to adjust your diet, supplement and lifestyle behaviours to minimize these health risks in the long term.
The optiphi Helix Diet Report offers a unique approach to understanding the nutritional needs of your body, as well as the role genetics play in your response to physical exercise. Major dietary considerations (for example low-carb versus low-fat) can be individually validated through this test as well as sensitivities to certain foods. Additionally, the amount of exercise you should be getting and how you may respond to exercise is also investigated.
