This blew my mind. Can you believe there's a company that takes your DNA—yes, your actual genetic code—and creates a customized wellness plan based entirely on your unique needs? And before you ask, yes—it’s HIPAA-compliant, CLIA-certified, and completely secure. Gone are the days of taking random supplements just because someone said you “should.” I recently cleaned out my kitchen cabinets and realized how many vitamins I had collected based on guesswork. Think about it—why are we taking health advice from people who don’t even know our genetic blueprint?
They’re not our doctors. They’re not looking at our DNA.
I conducted a comprehensive DNA test through ÜFORIA Science, which analyzed 18 of my genetic markers, also known as SNPs (pronounced "snips"). If you’ve never heard of them, SNPs—or single-nucleotide polymorphisms—are natural genetic variations that can affect how your body functions. Some SNPs determine traits like hair or eye color. Still, others have a direct impact on your overall wellness—things like how your body handles inflammation, detoxification, metabolism, or nutrient absorption.
When I received my genetic assessment and the analysis of my 18 actionable SNPs, I was shocked—but also incredibly relieved. The results weren’t scary—they were preventative. Empowering, even.
It gave me a whole new perspective on what my body needs.
I’m sharing my results with you because I believe this is the future of personalized wellness. Scroll down to take a look, and I’ll walk you through what everything means. This is not merely a matter of health; it represents a significant transformation.
So—here it is—my DNA panel.
Confused? Good! I was, too, when I first looked at it. At first glance, it all seems a little overwhelming—but I promise, once you take a moment to learn the basics, it starts to make sense.
What's the best part? ÜFORIA Science™ explains everything in clear, easy-to-understand language on its website.
Let me break it down for you:
On the far left, you’ll see the 18 SNPs listed—these are your genes.
Then comes the core section in the middle—this is where it starts to click. Here's how to read the color coding:
Green indicates that neither of your parents inherited a genetic variation, meaning you are immune to that marker.
Yellow means you inherited one variant from one parent and a “normal” gene from the other.
Red means you got the variant from both parents—something to take a closer look at.
Pretty simple, right? Okay, I’ll admit—I’m still wrapping my head around a few things, but it truly gets easier with time. The important part is I now know what my body needs. And that’s powerful.
I’m still waiting for my Utrition—my personalized supplement based entirely on my DNA—but I’m already feeling more in tune with my health.
Now, let me show you one of the genes I need to pay close attention to. It stood out like a flashing red sign (literally). It's called MTRR rs18001131—yes, a mouthful—but I’ll explain what it means and why it matters next. Stay with me—this is where things get interesting.
This little red dot? That’s my heart gene—and yes, it’s one I inherited from both of my parents. Yay! Thanks, Mom and Dad! (Insert sarcasm here.)
Because of this specific genetic marker, my body requires extra support, especially with vitamin B2, folate, B6, B12, and zinc. I’m naturally low in all of them, which could explain a lot about how I’ve felt in the past. But now that I know, I can do something about it.
I’m looking forward to receiving my personalized Utrition DNA supplements, created just for me based on my genetic blueprint.
Seriously—give your body a voice. Personalized nutrition is the future, and I’m here for it.
