How does this test work?

We will send you a DNA test kit. Follow the instructions in the enclosed brochure, send us back the filled test tube (saliva) and register on the evaluation page using the individual codes in the brochure. Important: Without this registration, we cannot assign the result to you! You will then receive an email as soon as the laboratory has evaluated your test (usually after about four to six weeks) and you can view the results on the evaluation page.

Technology

SNP analyses (single nucleotide polymorphism) are used to determine alleles of a known polymorphism of a target sequence. These SNPs are individual nucleotide positions within the genome that vary naturally in the population. There are two alleles at each locus, which can be occupied by bases (adenine (A), guanine (G), cytosine (C) and thymine (T)) that define our genetic makeup.
We pay particular attention to those genetic markers whose DNA sequence has a known location in the chromosome and whose hereditary characteristics and resulting genetic causes are supported by current studies. We only test genetic markers that are based on scientific study results (replication studies) and that have a significant influence on human metabolism.

Whole Genome Sequencing (WGS)

Although we only incorporate genetic markers that are backed by strong scientific evidence into our analyses, we test the entire genome using next-generation sequencing (NGS). This process is also known as low-pass whole genome sequencing (lpWGS), which is currently the most up-to-date and accurate technology for analysing the entire genome. Instead of analysing the genome multiple times, this latest technology allows us to optimise the sequence depth. The lpWGS technology used has already proven to be superior to conventional DNA microarray technology in terms of data volume, statistical accuracy and improved ability to detect genetic variants.

Regardless of the technology used, the raw data must be further interpreted in order to convey the results to the end user in a comprehensible manner. The interpretations are based on our proprietary algorithm and software, which analyse the raw data based on the current state of research.

The analyses are carried out in accordance with the highest quality standards. We use study results with high statistical reliability. These studies are characterised by a large test group of at least 1,000 participants and their independence. The quality of the tests is guaranteed by our experts from the fields of biotechnology, genetics, pharmacy, biochemistry, medicine, nutritional science and information technology.

Instructions for saliva test

Here you will find detailed instructions on how to collect and send your saliva sample. Please remember to register your test kit before sending it, otherwise the results cannot be assigned to you.

Note: Null mutations cannot be detected by our test (e.g. GSTM1 null type). In this case, we recommend further diagnostics in a specialised laboratory (e.g. qPCR or MLPA).

Instructions for saliva test

Here you will find detailed instructions on how to collect and send your saliva sample. Please remember to register your test kit before sending it, otherwise the result cannot be assigned to you.

It is a saliva test. You will receive a tube that already contains a liquid. The test kit includes instructions with detailed information on how to collect the sample. Before the analysis can be carried out, you must register your test kit online.

It’s that easy:

  1. Order the yourEPI DNA test kit from the NatuGena online shop.
  2. Register your test kit after receiving it.
  3. Collect a saliva sample.
  4. Send in the sample.
  5. Receive your personalized DNA analysis report with more than 500 measured SNPs covering the areas of nutrition, lifestyle, hormones, detoxification, and athletic performance.

You will gain insight into your individual genetic profile in relation to exercise, lifestyle factors (metabolism, sleep type), predisposition to intolerances, APOE status, hormone balance, liver enzymes (CYP enzymes), and nutrient requirements. Based on these insights, you can make preventive lifestyle choices. The test does not measure your current values but rather your genetic predispositions. The test therefore only needs to be performed once; your results are valid for life.

As we are not familiar with your country’s shipping regulations (e.g. customs clearance may be required for Switzerland), we unfortunately cannot recommend a specific return shipping method or assume liability for the return shipment. If possible, please choose a shipping method that corresponds to the German “Einwurf-Einschreiben” (registered mail with delivery confirmation).

Please contact us regarding this before purchasing the test. It is no longer possible to change the language from German to English after purchase. You can receive your results in only one language.

Once we have received your saliva sample, the analysis takes 6–8 weeks.

Yes, you will be notified by email.

Our epigenetics expert Thorsten Schmitt will personally take care of your analysis. You will receive recommendations for prevention on all levels, particularly regarding nutrition, sports & exercise, and micronutrient supply.

You are welcome to book an individual coaching session.

After your purchase, you will automatically receive the link to book an appointment. During the coaching session (online via Zoom), your YourEPI DNA test results will be discussed together with our certified coach. Further communication and preparation for the appointment (e.g. sending your results and questions) will take place directly between you and the coach after booking the appointment. We wish you an enjoyable YourEPI coaching experience and many valuable insights!

No, generally not. The methyl groups contained in HPMC capsules are chemically bound and are not bioavailable, meaning they are not available to the body for methylation processes.

However, anyone who tends toward overmethylation should be particularly cautious with vitamin B12 (methylcobalamin) and vitamin B9 (5-methyltetrahydrofolate, MTHF). These active methyl forms can directly affect methylation status.

Conclusion: HPMC capsules are generally considered safe, even in cases of overmethylation. What matters is the form and dosage of methyl-active vitamins in the product, not the coating agent.

Although HPU is considered to be a metabolic disorder with a predominantly genetic predisposition, it currently cannot be clearly identified through “a single HPU gene” or a standard genetic test. A conventional SNP/DNA test can only reveal genetic variants in detoxification, methylation, or stress-response genes that may increase susceptibility to HPU-like issues – the diagnosis itself is still based on the specific HPU urine test and the clinical symptoms.
