NutriDNA — Your DNA-Backed Guide to Nutrition, Fitness and Long-Term Wellness
Stop guessing what diet or workout actually works for your body. NutriDNA is a genetic wellness test, powered by Strand Life Sciences, that analyses your genes to show how you specifically metabolise nutrients, respond to exercise, and build long-term health habits. RxDx Clinics facilitates sample collection for the test across our Bengaluru clinics and via home visits — no separate lab visit needed.

What Is NutriDNA?
NutriDNA is a genetic test that analyses variations in genes linked to how your body handles nutrition, weight, exercise, sleep and inflammation, and turns that into a personalised, actionable report — instead of generic dietary advice that treats everyone the same. It uses a simple cheek swab (no blood draw), is processed using Next-Generation Sequencing at Strand’s genomics lab, and covers over 50 traits across 8 categories, drawing on 60+ validated genetic variants.
Unlike a blood test that tells you what’s happening in your body right now, NutriDNA tells you what’s built into your biology — permanently — so the changes you make based on it don’t need to be redone every six months.

Built for three kinds of RxDx patients
Whichever brought you here, the test is the same — only the reason to start usually isn’t.
30–50 · Preventive health
Already doing annual health checks
Your check-up shows what’s happening today. It doesn’t show why your cholesterol responds the way it does — or why weight always comes back. NutriDNA is the one-time test that fills that gap.
“Your health check is incomplete without your DNA. Test once. Benefit for life.”
Already at the gym, or seeing a dietician
“Stop guessing diets. Your DNA tells you what works.”
35–50 · Parents
Thinking about your teen's long-term health
Not a disease test — an easier, non-alarming way to start a lifelong health conversation with your child, built around their actual biology, early.
“Give your child a lifelong fitness and nutrition advantage.”
What NutriDNA Tells You: 8 Categories, 55+ Traits
Vitamin & Mineral Metabolism
Which nutrients you absorb, convert, or risk deficiency in
Food Reactions & Intolerances
Genetic capacity for lactose digestion, caffeine metabolism, salt sensitivity
Weight & Fat Metabolism
Eating Behaviour & Cravings
Metabolic Health Risk Factors
Exercise Performance & Injury Risk
Power vs. endurance aptitude, recovery, and injury-prone areas
Inflammation & Antioxidant Defence
How well your body manages oxidative stress and inflammation
Sleep & Lifestyle Response
Every trait in your report is linked to a specific gene, your genotype at that gene, and a plain-language recommendation — not just a red/green risk flag.
What a Result Actually Looks Like
Every NutriDNA report opens the same way: a summary table listing all 55+ traits across your 8 categories, each one colour-coded — Typical, High risk, or Enhanced — so you can see at a glance where to pay attention before reading a single page of detail.
In a de-identified sample report we reviewed, one row under Vitamin & Mineral Metabolism read: Vitamin A Requirement — gene BCMO1 — High risk. That single flagged row is what sends you further into the report, to the full explanation behind it.
Turn to that page, and here’s what it actually says: this person’s BCMO1 genotype means they convert plant-based beta-carotene into usable Vitamin A at roughly half the typical efficiency — so a diet that looks “healthy” on paper (carrots, spinach, sweet potato) could still leave them short, unless they also include preformed Vitamin A from animal sources or targeted supplementation.
That’s the structure behind every trait in your report: a flag in the summary table, followed by the specific biology and the specific action behind it — not “eat healthy,” but this adjustment, for this reason, based on your biology.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Is NutriDNA a blood test?
How is NutriDNA different from a regular blood test or diet consultation?
A blood test shows your current levels; NutriDNA shows the underlying genetic reason certain patterns keep repeating, so the guidance doesn’t need to be re-done every few months.
Do I need a doctor's referral to take NutriDNA?
Will my genetic data be shared with anyone?
Is this test relevant for children or teenagers?
How accurate are the results?
Can I combine this with my annual health check?
Yes — NutriDNA pairs well with your regular RxDx Clinics health check. Your annual check tells you what’s happening in your body right now; NutriDNA adds the permanent, genetic why behind your nutrition, weight and metabolic patterns, so you’re not redoing the same guesswork every year.
