Oct 16, 2019 | Skin Care

You probably know someone who can eat cake, ice cream, and whatever fast food they want without gaining weight. And there are others who still gain weight no matter how little they eat. Basically, your weight is based on the calories you consume, how many you burn, and how many you store. But each of these factors is influenced by your genes and the environment. Genes contribute to the cause of obesity by affecting metabolism, physiology, appetite, food cravings, satiety, stress eating, and body-fat distribution. It also influences how your body responds to exercise.

Having an idea of how genes influence your weight gain or struggle to lose without regaining the pounds may be very helpful. You can get your ideal diet and fitness plan using the Pathway Fit genetic test.

What is Pathway Fit and Why Should I Opt for It?

Pathway Fit is a genetic test designed to help individuals tailor their diet and exercise based on DNA. The test involves an assessment of genetic markers to produce a report of findings and recommendations to help a person develop their ideal fitness and diet plan. Here are the benefits of Pathway Fit testing:

  • You will get recommendations regarding exercise, diet, and lifestyle based on your genes.
  • You’ll be provided with a personalized nutrition profile that will guide you in determining the best ratio of proteins, fats, and carbs that your body needs. You also get to know which vitamins and nutrients you should take more of.
  • You will also understand how your genetic makeup influences your predisposition for exercise. With the information provided, you can determine whether or not a particular type of workout, such as cardio or strength training, will be beneficial.

What is the Testing Procedure?

Pathway Fit is a non-invasive procedure, meaning that it does not require a blood sample. Instead, you’ll be required to provide a simple saliva sample that will be used to evaluate over 80 genetic markers to give you a snapshot of your body’s response to exercise and diet along with a personalized nutrition profile. Once you’ve provided your saliva sample, it should take about two to three weeks for the analysis to be conducted and your personalized nutrition profile delivered to you.
