Nutrigenomics is a subset of genomics that focuses on the genes that relate and respond to nutrition and lifestyle interventions, with the aim of achieving optimal health
By doing a simple, non-evasive cheek swab you can discover your DNA blueprint and learn how well your genes are matched to your present diet and lifestyle, as well as how you can unlock the full potential of your current and future health and wellness.
A DNA test provides valuable insights to support a preventative and proactive approach to your health and well-being.
Most people understand our genes support our uniqueness – they influence everything from the colour of our eyes and our height to the predisposition of chronic disease.
However, science now confirms whilst your genetic code is fixed, your gene expression (activity) can be adjusted – increased or decreased by our environment and lifestyle choices such as nutrition, exercise, sleep and psychosocial factors.
​
So, in other words, your genes may load the ‘gun’, but it is your diet, lifestyle, stress and other environmental exposures that pull the ‘trigger’ that causes disease and premature ageing.
Synchronising our unique DNA blueprint with our diet and lifestyle is the key to the exciting new realm of personalised wellness medicine.

knowing yourself is enlightenment”

What is Nutrigenomics?
About me
Sally Calder
Registered Nutritionist, Nutrigenomics Practitioner and Educator
My approach
We are all unique, and respond very differently to foods, the environment we are in, lifestyle choices and exercise. The very reason a one size fit's all approach doesn't work.
​
Working with Lifecode Gx® and their cutting-edge genomics science I can offer professional, ethical DNA testing and analysis. Their specialist nutrigenomics DNA test panels* inform how inherited health risks can be mitigated through personalised nutrition and changes in lifestyle.
​
To support my work, I often use a range of in-depth diagnostic functional tests, this helps to identify the root causes of illness or dysfunction and ultimately enables a totally personalised, preventative and proactive approach to your health.
My goal
My goal is to empower you to take charge of your health. I aim to help you gain greater control and confidence over the decisions and actions that affect your wellbeing.
Nutrient Core DNA test
A Nutrient Core DNA test essentially gives you state of the art insight into how your body responds to the foods you eat including gluten, lactose, caffeine, and microbiome diversity. Your personal nutrient core report includes vitamin needs and further information about your metabolism. It’s yours to keep as a valuable reference guide for life. It will help remove the guesswork when deciding what foods and lifestyle factors best support your body and wellness goals.
Every aspect of your report is actionable, never any bad news. You’re never too old (or too young) to discover such positive and enabling information and learn what you can do to take a personal, preventative, and proactive approach to your health and wellbeing.
Ever wondered why some diets work for some and not others?
​
A “one size fits all” approach to dieting doesn’t work, we are all unique and our responses to food and lifestyle choices are too.

Explore our range of DNA health reports
Powerful insight into your nutrient metabolism so you can optimise your diet, supplementation, and overall health. Energy, mood, detoxification, inflammation, and resilience. Who Can Benefit • Low energy, fatigue or poor exercise recovery • Brain fog, low mood or anxiety • Hormonal imbalances, PMS or fertility challenges • High homocysteine, cardiovascular or metabolic risk • Sluggish detoxification or sensitivity to alcohol, caffeine, or medications • Chronic inflammation, autoimmune conditions or frequent infections • Skin or hair issues, slow wound healing or poor recovery • Digestive imbalances or poor nutrient absorption • Bone or muscle weakness, cramps or pain • Preventive health and longevity goals
Vital for providing structural support to bones and teeth, maintaining pH and fluid balance, enabling nerve conduction and muscle contraction, and supporting the function of hormones and enzymes, as well as the immune system. Whilst essential minerals are necessary in adequate amounts for health, excessive intake and accumulation can be detrimental. Additionally, environmental heavy metals are toxic to humans and pose serious health risks.
The Metabolics Report transforms our understanding of how genes confer metabolic individuality and underpin energy regulation, longevity and healthspan. This comprehensive report presents the genes that can powerfully influence key pathways driving human metabolism. Incorporates over 40 genes and 50 SNPs across 6 pathways, including appetite regulation, nutrient sensing, sugar and fat metabolism, cholesterol and bile, mitochondria and inflammation.
Symptoms of steroid hormone imbalance can affect men and women, and include: infertility, low libido and sex drive, low sperm count, acne, excess facial hair in women, PCOS, blood clots, mood swings, depression, substance misuse, poor memory, weight gain (belly fat for men), breast appearances in men, and hormone sensitive cancers, such as breast cancer or prostate cancer.
Imbalances in methylation - too little or too much - can increase susceptibility to chronic health conditions such as heart disease, circulatory problems, chronic fatigue, infertility, immune and autoimmune conditions, food and chemical sensitivities, and mood and psychiatric disorders, as well as cancer and premature ageing.
Histamine intolerance is the body’s reaction to an imbalance between accumulated histamine and the capacity to break it down. When the body is unable to break histamine down quickly enough it becomes toxic. Symptoms of histamine toxicity may include skin irritation or breathing difficulties (mimicking an allergic reaction), digestive problems, headaches, insomnia and anxiety.
Poor detoxification can cause symptoms such as headaches, muscle aches, fatigue, allergies, skin disorders, weight gain, bloating, acid reflux and heartburn, excessive sweating, chronic infections, subfertility, low libido, poor mental function and low stress tolerance.
Symptoms of neurotransmitter imbalance can include: mood imbalances, depression, mania, attention deficit and obsessive compulsive disorders, addictive behaviours, motor control disruption, anger, aggression and restlessness.
The E4 form of the APOE gene has been associated with increased plasma cholesterol and triglycerides and susceptibility to cardiovascular disease - heart attacks or strokes due to atherosclerosis, insulin resistance and Alzheimer’s disease. However, having an E4 genotype is one of many risk factors and does not mean you will develop any of these conditions. In addition to APOE, this test examines genes involved in methylation, inflammation, toxicity and neuroprotection, to enable individuals to take preventative action by adopting personalised nutrition and lifestyle changes to optimise their future, long term health.
Imbalance can result in HPT axis (Hypothalamus-Pituitary-Thyroid) dysfunction, autoimmune thyroid diseases (AITDs) such as Graves’ and Hashimoto’s, thyroid sensitive cancers (although rare), and impact transport, activation and response to thyroid hormones. Deficiency or excess of thyroid hormones can result in many different symptoms. Hypothyroidism (under activity) can cause weight gain, fatigue, low libido, cold intolerance, dry skin, constipation and depression. Symptoms of hyperthyroidism (over activity) include anxiety, heat intolerance, heart palpitations, insomnia and weight loss.
DNA sequencing has opened the door to personalised approaches to health and fitness, enabling a more intelligent approach to training, recovery and performance. In this report, we present elements of your unique DNA profile that have been shown to affect athletic performance. Topics The personalised genetic results are grouped into three topic areas: Train - tailor a programme that will be most effective for you to support cardio-vascular adaption, strategic fuelling and structural strength Recover - build resilience and reduce your risk of injury and illness by controlling inflammation, reducing oxidative stress and optimising sleep. Perform - balance stress and stimulation when it matters most - to achieve your personal best.

Professional Cricketer
To be able to know how my body works with foods and what it needs according to my DNA is revolutionary.
As a professional sportsman this knowledge is paramount to get the best out of myself.
Sally’s knowledge and passion is spot on! My extensive report is full of great ideas and even includes a shopping list to ensure I don’t forget anything!
Philip K
While I’m relatively fit and active and make good dietary choices for the most part, I knew bad habits had crept into my eating. It’s too easy to overindulge in the favourites.
I had a few aches and pains particularly in my ankle joints and feet, and brain fog in the mornings. I loved the programme Sally recommended, the menu and food choices varied and were remarkably tasty, with ideas I plan to continue. I sensed initially a much clearer head in just a few days and further into the programme it was evident my aches and pains in my joints had gone, and while not the objective, I lost a few pounds in weight, an added bonus! I feel totally healthier and very happy with my results.
Linda B
Through lockdown I got totally out of routine, my eating and sleeping patterns suffered and as a result, gained nearly a stone in weight. I struggled with constantly waking up feeling tired with little energy or motivation. Sally’s knowledge, guidance and clear explanations helped me understand where I was going wrong and soon got me back on track! Not only have I lost weight, but I’ve noticed my skin is much clearer and it’s great to feel the spring back in my step again. I wouldn’t think twice about recommending Sally to anyone who knows they need to take back control of their health.
