Various genetic traits inherited from your mother and father are all part of your DNA. That DNA is organized into units of A, T, G, C.
Ancestry
Ancestry(Admixture) analysis is a method to check a person's geographical origin based on one's genetic ancestry. Admixture calculations provide genetic ancestry analysis to an individual by compairing individual's genome data with sample datasets. The datasets are diverse depending on the used setup and analysis methods. A new sample is normally compared to the ancestral components by the calculation of the percentage. Using this App, you can find your geographical origin that your genome are telling.
Triglycerides
Considered one of the bad fats, triglycerides are highly associated with metabolic syndrome. Arteries are likely to harden as a result of high levels of these fats, and this could increase the risk of diabetes.
Cholesterol
One of the fats, cholesterol as a whole divides into good cholesterol (HDL), bad cholesterol (LDL), and triglycerides. Because LDL is also highly associated with atherosclerosis (hardening of arteries) and triglycerides, bad cholesterol (LDL) is used as a general indicator to determine state of health.
Blood glucose control
Blood glucose is the concentration of glucose in blood which acts as the brain’s and red blood cells’ source of energy. If the blood glucose level is high or low instead of maintaining homeostasis, it can cause a variety of syndromes including metabolic syndrome.
Blood pressure control
Blood pressure control generally deals with arterial pressure. Depending on the blood pressure level, it can be expressed as high blood pressure, low blood pressure, and normal blood pressure. Blood pressure may increase or decrease with age depending on environmental, psychological, and genetic factors.
Vitamin C metabolism
Vitamin C is known as a kind of antioxidant that prevents cell damage, resists infection, and helps heal wounds.
Caffeine metabolism
Caffeine stimulates the central nervous system and metabolism, reduces fatigue, and awakens mental faculties. Depending on the person, there can be differences of the ability to consume and metabolize caffeine.
Body mass index
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a widely used formula for obesity. Metabolism syndromes can be prevented, and a balanced, healthful lifestyle can be maintained through systematic body mass control.
Skin aging
Naturally occurring skin aging occurs over time such as photoaging, intrinsic aging, environmental factor and etc. These require various efforts to minimize effects on the skin.
Skin elasticity
Skin elasticity with age decreases due to a decline of dermis collagen, the most important factor known concerning skin elasticity preservation. However, by maintaining collagen and increasing skin moisture, this type of skin aging can be overcome.
Pigmentation
Skin pigmentation is caused by increased melanin. Pigmentation can temporarily increase for pregnant women due to hormonal changes.
Hair loss
Hair loss is largely divided into male pattern alopecia, female pattern alopecia, and telogen alopecia. Among alopecias (hair loss), baldness occurs most frequently. Due to a recent increase in female pattern alopecia, hair loss is no longer only considered as a male problem.
Hair thickness
If a male has a family history of male pattern alopecia, his hair may begin to thin around the age of 20 to 30. Additionally, caucasians usually have thinner hair than asians.
Personalized diet and exercise plan
Have you ever wondered why there are people who don't gain weight no matter how much they eat and people who are the exact opposite?
There is an interaction between environment and genes which is different for every individual. Several genes contribute in deciding the pathway of fat metabolism in the body. Your genes are set, but the effect that your genes have on you can be significantly altered through awareness and changes in your diet and fitness routine. This is why people who use a personalized fitness plan based on their genetic information successfully lose more weight than people who follow a one-size-fits-all diet plan, genetic variations influence the ways in which people respond to different type diets and exercise for losing weight like for example how intense exercise is required for your body and also the amount calories burn out in your body is different from others.
Customize your Diet plan
You are different so as your body’s nutritional needs!
Genomics helps you understand the relationship between gene and health; recent advancements in genomics have helped us to better understand the relationship that our genes have with our nutrition and health. Genetic variation determines how we metabolize and utilize the foods, nutrients, and supplements we ingest. Your unique genetic make-up can influence how your body responds to different substances such as lactose found in milk, caffeine, alcohol, gluten, vitamins, minerals, carbohydrates, and fats. Understanding your genetic profile and its implications will provide you with the tools needed to make the best dietary choices and maximize your health and well-being.

What can you expect from the report?
Alopecia areata
An autoimmune disease-causing hair lose in round patches by attacking the hair follicle this occurs in everyone regardless of gender or age. Knowing the risk of developing it would help in getting follicle treatment prior developing any symptoms.
Male pattern baldness
This pattern hair fall affects males which are caused by sensitivity to dihydrotestosterone hormone. This shortens growth phase of hair follicle and produce smaller and finer hair which fall off easily. Knowing it ahead of time can help with a hormone treatment. Female are not affected but can be a carrier for it.
Hair thickness and straight hair
It is always interesting to know you carry the trait of your family like having the variant of generating thick hair suggests that you are of East Asian Descent. Knowing your hair helps you take care and use suitable products for it.
Get a personalized recommendation for your skin care routine basis your hair type.
Get a personalized recommendation for your skin care routine basis your skin type. Get an insight on what your genetic makeup demands for your skin. Skin is a very sensitive part and it is exposed to all sort of environmental hazards. Hence a proper skin care routine is must to maintain it.
Skin elasticity
Feel young and confident with a moist and elastic skin, don’t let age lose its moisture and elasticity resulting in wrinkles and sagging skin. Take a right step at the right time, get a genetic test for personalized guidance for your skin.
Skin pigmentation
Melanin protects skin from UV light. An improper secretion of this leads to melanoma or skin pigmentation. This test would help you know your melanin production and prevent from hyper pigmentation.
Skin aging
Age is just a number; don’t let the early signs of it affect your confidence. Advanced glycation end product leads to aging. Knowing and reducing its amount can reverse the skin aging.
