What is the test
DNA Resilience is a genetic test targeted at individuals who want to:
- Lead more effectively (in business, sport and life)
- Cope better under stressful and demanding conditions
- Enhance their mental, emotional and physical health
- Live up to their fullest potential
DNA Resilience reports on the seven key molecular areas that have the greatest influence on resilience. They are:
- Cortisol, oxytocin, the neurotrophic pathway, neuropeptide Y, norepinephrine, dopamine, and serotonin
The report is able to determine an individuals’ genetic potential for resilience and provide ways in which intrinsic strengths can be amplified and existing weaknesses reduced. The action steps centre on highly individualised lifestyle strategies that leverage diet, targeted activity, environmental awareness, and nutritional supplements.
Why the test was developed/clinical utility
The test was developed to combat the challenges brought on by the current set of socioeconomic conditions (global economic downturn, social isolation, health insecurity etc.) and the dire impact these have on our emotional, mental and physical health.
Given the hereditability of emotional regulation (30%), temperament (±56%) and cognitive aptitude (>99%), a critical knowledge and understanding of individual genetics and environmental influences can unlock exceptional resilience and a performance advantage regardless of circumstances.
