DNA CHECK 800+ REPORTS

MetaCheck is a nutrigenetic analysis (nutrition-related genetic test), in which the specific metabolism or metabolic genes are examined. These genes are responsible for processing nutrients, as well as calorie consumption in the cells. The name MetaCheck stands for metabolism check or metabolic examination, the term for a metabolic typing. ‘Metabolism’ is understood as the totality of all biochemical processes in all cells of the human body.

The analysis thus allows for the determination of the individual, metabolic predisposition responsible for the breakdown or processing of macronutrients. The term ‘macronutrients’ refers to the three main energy carriers for the body: Lipids, proteins and carbohydrates. They form the most important components of human nutrition and provide the body with the energy necessary to maintain its metabolic processes.

The basis of MetaCheck is the fact that each individual differs from their fellow human beings through their individual genetic make-up. Although all humans have the same genetic design, the variation of these genes often determines individual characteristics and properties. This is understandable, for example, when considering the inheritance of the eye color. Everyone has genes for eye color in their genome.
