(epi) Genetic Edge will send you a testing kit with full instructions on how to administer and register your personalized test.

NO! The test is of your saliva to collect your DNA sample. You'll simply swab the inside of each side of your cheek according to the test instructions that will be enclosed.

One the lab receives your test kit, the standard turnaround for results is 4-6 weeks. Once results are released, your Epigenetic Coach will evaluate and provide customized analysis plus a personalized wellness blueprint with strategies and recommendations.

We currently offer our signature 7 Panel genetic testing covering 60 total sub-panels of over 1,900 genetic SNPs. Our 7 panels are:

  • Macronutrition

Our DNA testing labs are equipped with state-of-the-art sequencing technology and staffed by experts specializing in genomics and epigenetics. We utilize advanced science-backed methods to deliver accurate and reliable results, ensuring comprehensive insights into each individual's genetic profile. Our testing process includes a Q rating of 9.62, demonstrating our commitment to the highest standards of sequencing quality, with a focus on depth of coverage, base quality, and mapping quality.



Great question! While there are several other companies out there that offer genetic testing and reporting, very few provide 1:1 human analysis review from a trained epigenetics coach. Meaning, you'll get you report with very little context or guidance on what to do with the results.

We take great pride in having a human being trained in epigenetics personally evaluating your lab results panel by panel to provide digestible interpretations, even drilling down to specific markers to extrapolate any additional information relevant to your long-term wellness goals. Further, we develop a customized wellness blueprint companion with your full test results specific to your health and wellness goals and we review all of this in detail on a 90-minute coaching call. We make sure you walk away feeling educated, empowered, and ready to implement suggested strategies and/or discuss specific health concerns or request specific diagnostic testing with your medical practitioners.

Lastly, we're here for you for LIFE! While your DNA doesn't change, new research is constantly emerging that affects epigenetic influences on your gene expression. We will provide updates to you and set up follow up coaching calls when needed to support your wellness journey.
