Functional Genomic Assessment test
Designs for Health's comprehensive functional DNA test for useful insights into eight key areas of a patient's genomics to better understand their unique genetic blueprint.
Benefits
Genomic Spotlight™ uses advanced machine learning via the Opus23 informatics platform to allow clinicians a unique insight into a client’s or patient’s genomics. Using a simple buccal collection, this test reports an array of the most clinically significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a multitude of domains in one comprehensive functional DNA test that evaluates eight key areas of health.
Genomic Spotlight™ using Opus23 identifies how the function of one gene or SNP impacts the expression and function of a separately related gene or SNP, and ultimately a subject’s physiology. Using this platform, clinicians can customize reports with an interactive dashboard that curates a subject’s genomic data in “real-time” by using the latest literature databases and meta-data sets providing relevant information on nutritional supplements, diet, and lifestyle changes that can proactively influence a subject’s gene expression and function, and ultimately their health and well-being.
How does this test benefit the client or patient?
- Allows unique insight into patient genomics
- Reports an array of the most clinically significant single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in a multitude of domains in one comprehensive functional DNA test
- Assesses eight key areas of health, including methylation, structural (i.e., bone health), aging, cognitive health, detoxification, endocrine health, inflammatory status, and gastrointestinal health
The Designs for Health Genomic Spotlight™ functional wellness test is not diagnostic and is not eligible for coverage under Medicare, Medicaid, or medical insurance.
DFH Spotlight testing must be ordered or authorized by a qualified healthcare provider registered with DFH. Please reach out directly to your practitioner to express your interest in any of the Spotlight tests.
Spotlight test kits are not available for purchase or shipping in New York or the U.S. territories.
