The Inform Me PLUS program
The Inform Me PLUS program builds on the Inform Me Program with a comprehensive genetic analysis of your skin's health and inclusion of extra resources to assist with weight management.
Skin health is crucial as it serves as the body’s primary barrier defense, protecting against environmental hazards, pathogens, and toxins. This barrier function is maintained through a complex interplay of physiological processes such as inflammation, antioxidant capacity, hydration, elasticity, and repair mechanisms, all influenced by genetic predispositions, environmental exposures, and lifestyle choices.
When the skin’s barrier is compromised, a condition often referred to as "leaky skin," it can lead to increased susceptibility to infections, allergic reactions, and chronic inflammatory conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Evidence-based research has shown that maintaining the integrity of the skin barrier is essential for overall health, as disruptions can have systemic implications, including increased inflammation and oxidative stress.
Genetic testing for skin health can provide personalized insights into these processes, helping to identify specific vulnerabilities and tailor interventions to strengthen and protect the skin barrier, ultimately promoting better overall health and well-being.
The program is intended for anyone who wishes to learn about their genetics and use this knowledge to make informed choices regarding their health and lifestyle by incorporating the personalised interventions suggested by our program for optimised health outcomes.
Your journey starts with receiving a Mygene Kit which includes a buccal swab used to extract DNA from your mouth. Once our lab has analysed over 654,027 SNPs (genetic variations) in your DNA, your personalised results are uploaded and interpreted by our state-of-the-art artificial intelligence (AI) driven live reporting program which canvasses over 50 million peer-reviewed published scientific articles to collate personalised reports. You will also receive an extensive questionnaire to fill out. The information you provide us through this questionnaire is collated with your genetic results to help us further personalise your program.
Once your genetic results are ready, one of our Mygene consultants will organise a virtual 60 minute consultation to guide you through your unique genetic profile - spanning over 180 of the most well researched genes in 23 functional categories - and inform you about the latest evidenced based and personalised tips and dietary and lifestyle recommendations, including sleep, exercise and much more.
As part of the Inform Me PLUS program we also include our comprehensive myFatGene 30 page report according to your genotype. The FTO gene is one of the most studied genes associated with genetic variants for healthy weight management. We call this gene, affectionately, the “fat gene”, due its association with healthy weight management.
The Inform Me program includes the following:
- Comprehensive in-house genetic test;
- 3-month access to our proprietary gene.codes AI driven reporting program;
- Comprehensive diet and lifestyle questionnaire to establish baseline health and provide us with important information which allows more precise personalisation of your program;
- A 60-minute consultation with personalised dietary and lifestyle recommendations;
- Comprehensive myFatGene report which includes 30 pages of specific dietary and lifestyle tips and suggestions for your FTO genotype, further assisting you with your healthy weight management goals;
- Comprehensive Skin Health genetic panel including personalised insights and recommendations regarding your skin's elasticity, pigmentation, photoaging, repair abilities, inflammation, and much more.
Please note, you will have access to our proprietary gene.codes AI driven reporting program for 3 months. Upon expiry, you may renew your subscription for another 3 months ($99) or 12 months ($249).
If you decide you would like to expand and enhance your health and wellbeing journey, you can upgrade* to any of our other programs at any point or consider our available add-ons to supplement your current program.
*Note the $1798 fee of your Inform Me PLUS program will be deducted from the total cost of the other programs.
