This genetic test can determine which foods benefit you the least depending on your molecular chain.
We have asked ourselves again and again: Why don't we lose weight if we eat as we are supposed to lose weight? We have reduced sugars, we have made a thousand and one hypocaloric diets, we have resorted to nutritional ketosis and, of course, we have forgotten alcoholic beverages. However, we continue to feel bloated and we do not finish achieving the objectives that we so clearly visualize. Why are those kilos still clinging to our bodies?
The truth is that the usual diets are based on very similar patterns and that affects their effectiveness, that is why some people work and others do not. So what does the success of a diet depend on? The answer to this mystery is in your genes.
The reality is that many of the foods that we think are healthy are not for our body because our DNA determines it, and therefore it is harder for us to lose weight, or digest them, etc ... It is what the nutritionists and geneticists explain to us of Clinics of Recovery of the Healthy State (CRES), who, guided by Juan Carlos de Gregorio, its founder, and CEO, have been dedicated for several years to analyze the genetic file of their patients, until it becomes a template that provides information about what feels good and bad for each one of them.
Experts have come up with the formula that allows them to know what foods we can take and which not depending on the intolerance they may have in our body. And that makes a big difference because eating knowing foods that feel good or bad is the fundamental aspect of good digestion and metabolization of food. If you are also aware of possible intolerances, or if you have a genetic predisposition to obesity you can take action on the matter. Moreover, the CRES nutritionists and geneticists group are able to evaluate how your satiety control works to teach you to understand the messages your body sends.
And is that a plate of pasta or a good paella, for example, does not fatten the same to one person than another. Saliva, or rather, the study of our saliva, will provide us with the dietary response about what we can or cannot eat, or do it more or less regularly without having to repent.
Without going any further, fried eggs can have a very different impact according to the genetic test, whose results offer very useful information on nutrition for our whole life since genetics does not change, a factor to take into account when learning to eat based on our genetics.
Based on 26 selected polymorphisms involved in nutrition, intolerances to lactose, gluten, histamine or malabsorption of fructose are investigated through the genetic test. In fact, what is collected is a DNA sample in which individual genetic parameters are contrasted with biomedical studies. With them, you can design personalized nutritional treatments to improve people's quality of life.
The test is very simple. It is only about obtaining a small sample of saliva deposited on a cotton cane. From the results of that test, the patient can have a specific diet according to their needs.
“The key is to understand the genetic code of each person and to know how to metabolize the different food components,” explains Juan Carlos de Gregorio, an expert in biogenetics. “If the food is not metabolized well, we store it in specific places of our body and usually accumulate it selectively. That is, by reading the genetic code of a minimal sample of saliva we are able to know what food suits us well or badly, ”adds the expert.
In addition, our DNA provides very valuable information to prevent diseases or the predisposition to develop them, which “allows us to develop prevention plans and behavior patterns adapted to each person,” says the expert.
De Gregorio says that in CRES Clinics, in addition to performing the genetic test, a nutritionist explains to the patients the results of the test and designs a personalized nutrition plan to change their eating habits and improve their quality of life. The plan helps reduce disorders whose symptoms can cause overweight or inflammation of the intestinal membrane. But if the problem is obesity, they also perform more effective treatments for weight loss such as the pose method or the intragastric balloon.
