Most people know what to eat — but not what their body actually needs. Personalised nutrition changes that by shifting health decisions from guesswork to biochemical evidence.
Through at-home dried blood spot (DBS) testing, anyone can now measure nutritional status and metabolic function without visiting a clinic. This data-driven approach helps identify deficiencies, track progress, and fine-tune diet and supplements for truly individual results.
🧬 Why Personalised Nutrition Works
Every person’s metabolism is unique. Genetics, lifestyle, environment, and even gut microbiota shape how nutrients are absorbed and utilised. That’s why one-size-fits-all diets fail — what improves energy for one person may cause fatigue in another.
Personalised nutrition relies on objective biomarkers — measurable signals from your blood that reflect nutrient balance, inflammation, and energy efficiency.
By testing regularly, you can align food and lifestyle choices with what your body genuinely needs.
⚙️ From Guessing to Measuring
Traditional nutrition advice focuses on intake (what you eat). Functional nutrition focuses on uptake and utilisation(what your body actually absorbs and uses).
At-home blood testing provides answers to questions like:
-
Is my Omega-3 level high enough for brain and heart health?
-
Am I getting enough Vitamin D for immunity and mood?
-
Is my NAD⁺ level supporting optimal energy and longevity?
-
Are my amino acids balanced for recovery and focus?
-
Is my blood sugar stable long-term?
These insights transform daily choices into targeted interventions.
🩸 Core Biomarkers for Personalised Nutrition
1. Omega-3 Plus Ratios Test – The Inflammation Balancer
Measures Omega-3 Index, Omega-6 : 3 Ratio, and ARA : EPA Ratio.
A balanced fatty-acid profile supports cardiovascular, cognitive, and emotional resilience.
👉 Omega-3 Plus Ratios Test
2. Vitamin D Test – The Hormone of Health
Vitamin D acts like a hormone, regulating immunity, bone strength, and metabolic efficiency.
Testing ensures sunlight or supplementation is delivering optimal results.
👉 Vitamin D Test
3. NAD⁺ Index Test – The Cellular Energy Gauge
NAD⁺ drives mitochondrial function and DNA repair. Declining levels cause fatigue and accelerated aging.
Testing NAD⁺, NADH, and their ratios helps quantify true cellular vitality.
👉 NAD⁺ Index Test
4. Amino Acid Test – The Blueprint for Repair and Mood
Amino acids build muscle, neurotransmitters, and enzymes. Imbalances affect mood, recovery, and metabolism.
Testing reveals which amino acids or co-nutrients need attention.
👉 Amino Acid Test
5. HbA1c Blood Test – The Glucose Compass
HbA1c reflects your average blood-sugar control over 8–12 weeks — a window into long-term energy regulation.
Stable glucose supports longevity and prevents metabolic fatigue.
👉 HbA1c Blood Test
6. Homocysteine Test – The Vascular and Cognitive Marker
High Homocysteine indicates poor methylation and increased oxidative stress. Lowering it supports heart, brain, and cellular health.
👉 Homocysteine Test
🧠 Connecting the Dots
Each biomarker tells a story — but together, they form a 360° map of health.
-
Omega-3 & Vitamin D: regulate inflammation and mood.
-
NAD⁺ & Amino Acids: drive energy and repair.
-
HbA1c & Homocysteine: track long-term metabolic and vascular aging.
By analysing these pathways, you can target nutrition where it matters most — from mitochondria to mind.
🩹 Tracking Progress Over Time
Blood chemistry changes slowly. Retesting every 3–6 months gives feedback on how your interventions are working.
You’ll see improvements in:
-
Energy and endurance
-
Mood and focus
-
Skin and recovery
-
Inflammation and metabolic control
Objective results reinforce good habits — and highlight where adjustments are needed.
🌿 Building Your Personal Health Strategy
-
Start with testing to establish a baseline.
-
Adjust diet and supplementation based on results.
-
Retest and refine every few months.
-
Collaborate with a practitioner if you want deeper interpretation.
Precision replaces trial-and-error, empowering long-term health optimisation.
💡 The Takeaway
The future of health is personal. By integrating at-home blood testing into your wellness routine, you can measure what matters most — and act with clarity.
From Omega-3s to NAD⁺, Vitamin D to Homocysteine, every marker you test brings you one step closer to balanced, resilient longevity.
