Frequently Asked Questions
How does Macromo help with my health and nutrition?
Macromo provides insights into your body’s nutritional needs, how certain products affect you, and whether or not you have specific food intolerances. Knowing this information can help you adjust your diet to make sure you’re not only eating well but also getting all the nutrients your body needs, while simultaneously consuming fewer products that you may be sensitive to (or avoiding these products at all). Some products, such as dairy, gluten, or caffeine may cause digestive issues that you might be unknowingly facing; learning about your dietary predispositions can help you solve these issues and improve your quality of life.
What is a DNA test and what do I get from it?
A DNA test is a way to read the genetic information stored in the DNA of your cells. The process involves taking a sample of cells from your saliva in the comfort of your own home and analyzing your genes. DNA tests will provide you with information about your genetic predispositions for various diseases, sports, nutrition, or sleep and allow you to adjust your lifestyle so that you are as healthy as possible and can enjoy a long active life. You can find a list of all the reports that you get with the DNA test here.
How can a DNA test help me improve my diet?
A DNA test can help you improve your diet by providing insights into your body’s nutritional needs, and the risks of developing food intolerances. By analyzing specific genes related to how your body absorbs certain nutrients, genetic predisposition to digestive tract diseases, and more, a DNA test can offer personalized information about your body's response to different dietary patterns. This can help you tailor your diet plans to ensure your body is getting all the necessary nutrients, while simultaneously avoiding the foods your body may have an adverse reaction to.
How long does it take to collect the sample and process the results?
Sampling usually takes only a few minutes and you can easily do it yourself in the comfort of your own home. For our DNA tests, it consists of collecting about 2 ml of saliva in a vial of prepared stabilizing solution, which you will receive in the test kit together with a prepaid envelope for returning the sample. You will get your results in 60 days in the Macromo app.
For our blood tests, the process is simple and pain-free, as you collect a few ml of blood in two vials provided for you. After returning the sample following the same procedure as with the DNA kits, you will get your results in the Macromo app within 5 business days.
