DNA vs URINE Analysis


By Tom Wood - Genewize Affiliate

I met a doctor in Houston recently who gave me a great understanding of the difference in DNA Analysis and Urine (metabolic) Analysis. They are both important but here’s how they are different.


  • DNA is prevention. Metabolic is reaction. 
  • DNA is foundational. Metabolic is functional.
  • Your DNA never changes. Metabolics change daily.
  • Fix the foundation first (GeneWize). Then test the functions (multiple tests).

Here are some points he brought up.


No one knows the exact percentage but some say DNA is responsible for about 25% of your health and Lifestyle (what you eat, the air you breathe, fitness level, etc…) is responsible for 75%.


You must address BOTH: DNA and Lifestyle issues.


Only a DNA test will tell you about your DNA. Many things tell you about your Lifestyle including metabolic tests (Urine or Blood Analysis), Body Mass Index or other fitness tests, caloric and fat intake analysis, etc… Nutritionists have many tests.

Your DNA never changes. If you address this first, then you can address your Lifestyle knowing you have the base down.


Urine analysis will change if you change your lifestyle. This includes if you start taking your GeneWize supplements, start a fitness routine, etc…


Once you’ve addresses your DNA and get on your GeneWize supplements you can do many Lifestyle Tests (urine, blood, fitness, food intake, etc…) to determine if you need more support.


Your Lifestyle will continue to change and you’ll need to keep taking these tests and monitoring your lifestyle.


But as long as you are on GeneWize LifeMap you’ll always have the DNA part of the equation handled.

The Foundation Metaphor

 
If I had to give you a metaphor, the DNA analysis is the foundation to your home. The Lifestyle analysis are the design and maintenance of the many rooms in your home. Without a strong foundation it doesn’t matter how well you take care of the rooms. And if there is a hurricane, your foundation will stand strong if you take care of it well. You’ll always be able to build a better you no matter what. Take care of the foundation first. Then use ANY test you want to keep your home beautiful.


The GeneWize Difference


GeneWize addresses the foundational elements in your custom LifeMap solution. Very soon we’ll be adding “boosts” that will address Lifestyle issues. You can do metabolic tests, fitness tests and other tests throughout your life as your life changes. The one thing that will never change is your DNA. Take care of that first and then add nutrition based on your Lifestyle.
