3X4 Genetics
Nutrigenomic Testing for Personalised Health

Nutrigenomic testing examines specific genes involved in how your body processes nutrients, manages inflammation, detoxifies, and responds to exercise. By understanding these genetic tendencies, the test translates your DNA into practical, personalised guidance on diet, supplementation, and lifestyle. It is designed to move nutrition advice away from generic guidelines and toward recommendations suited to your individual biology.

Yes, 3X4 Genetics is a DNA-based diet test that analyses key genetic markers to generate personalised nutrition recommendations. Rather than a one-size-fits-all diet plan, it highlights how your body is genetically predisposed to respond to things like fats, carbohydrates, caffeine, and micronutrients. These insights are then used to shape food choices that work with your biology rather than against it.

No, 3X4 Genetics is a wellness and preventative tool, not a diagnostic test, and it cannot identify or diagnose any medical condition. Its purpose is to highlight genetic tendencies that may inform healthier lifestyle choices before problems arise. Any health concerns or symptoms should still be discussed with a qualified medical professional.

Anyone wanting to move beyond trial-and-error dieting and understand how their own genetics influence metabolism, weight, energy, and athletic performance. It is especially useful for people who have followed popular diets without success, or who want a more targeted approach to nutrition and supplementation. Athletes, health-conscious individuals, and those managing weight or energy concerns are common candidates.

Genetic data is complex, and a trained practitioner helps interpret your specific gene variants in the context of your health history, lifestyle, and goals. They translate raw results into clear, practical recommendations you can apply, rather than leaving you with a list of genes and no direction. This guided approach ensures the insights are both accurate and actionable.

No, your underlying DNA sequence stays the same throughout your life, so a single test is enough to capture your genetic profile. However, gene expression, meaning how actively certain genes are switched on or off, can change based on diet, stress, exercise, and other lifestyle factors.

Your 3X4 Genetics results are valid for life, since your DNA does not change. This means you can revisit and reapply your genetic insights at any stage, whether your goals shift toward weight management, performance, or healthy ageing, without ever needing to retest.

Yes, 3X4 Genetics is available in South Africa through Next Biosciences, giving local clients access to internationally recognised nutrigenomic testing along with practitioner support to interpret the results.
