Life X DNA™ Expands Access To Genetic Methylation Testing In Canberra
Life X DNA™, an Australia-based provider of advanced DNA analysis, has announced the availability of its genetic methylation testing in Canberra services in Canberra, ACT. The company’s at-home test kits are designed to offer individuals insights into their genetic methylation pathways, including analysis of the MTHFR gene and related health markers.
Methylation is a fundamental biochemical process that influences DNA repair, detoxification, cardiovascular health, and neurological function. Variations in genes such as MTHFR can impact the efficiency of these processes, potentially affecting an individual’s risk for certain health conditions. Through methylation tests, users can assess their genetic predispositions and receive information that may assist in making informed decisions about diet, supplementation, and lifestyle.
The Life X DNA™ service utilises a simple cheek swab to collect DNA samples, which are then analysed using next-generation sequencing and AI-powered software. According to the company, the analysis covers over 200 million SNPs and more than 80 million variants. The resulting reports provide detailed information on methylation efficiency, MTHFR gene variants, homocysteine levels, and associated health risks. Recommendations are tailored to the individual’s genetic profile.
In Canberra, genetic methylation testing is available via mail-order kits, making the process accessible without the need for clinic visits. The reports generated from these tests are intended for informational and educational purposes only and are not intended to diagnose or treat medical conditions.
Life X DNA™ is fully Australian owned and operated, with data privacy and security protocols in place. The company states that personal genetic data is not shared with third parties and is stored securely offline.
The expansion of genetic methylation testing in Canberra reflects growing interest in personalised health insights based on DNA analysis. Life X DNA™’s services are also available in other major Australian cities and New Zealand.
