Functional Genomic Testing with video explanation and 1 hour follow-up consult
Product Description
Are you looking to unlock and achieve infinite potential?
Are you looking to enhance your abilities and intelligence?
Are you interested in advancing personal evolution and harnessing untapped possibilities?
Perhaps, you're just tired of seeking answers to healthcare questions from a medical profession with a very incomplete understanding of how the body works.
For the past 41 years, I've been looking for a way to address specific individual needs within each patient. Functional Genetic Analysis has finally created a way to accomplish this.
Our genes are the silent architect behind the complexity and richness of life as we know it. Each organism, from the humblest bacteria to the most sophisticated human, carries the blueprint for its existence embedded in its genetic code - an intricate sequence of molecules that not only defines how life forms but how it evolves, adapts, and transcends its environment.
The study of genetics holds the key to understanding life's potential, your potential, both realized and untapped. It's a story not just of what is, but what could be - if we dare to unlock the secrets hidden within our code of life.
The Richness of Life
Untapped Potential
With Functional Genetic testing, we identify each person's predisposition towards imbalances created by their very own genetic make-up. By identifying these genetic imbalances in combination with signs and symptoms and other test results, the most comprehensive picture to date can be created and a plan for maximizing human potential can be implemented. Using this approach, I have seen amazing results that enable the sickest of people to find the answers that they have often been seeking for decades.
While the life expectancy of people of most people worldwide has increased, the Healthy Life expectancy has decreased. We are living longer only to suffer more. We are living with more diseases and disabilities that often start at earlier ages than we have ever witnessed before. The Baby Boomers are the first generation to to see a reduction in the quality of life as they age, as well as shorter lifespans. Generation X has more disability days than any other generation before it. The costs associated with healthcare are skyrocketing. Infectious disease is no longer the number one killer, it's metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, cancers, and pulmonary disease - all preventable!
Genetic Analysis can help to determine each person's individual needs and help more clearly identify the correct choices to support and maximize function and human potential. The complexity of the body is seldom understood or appreciated by most people who seek simple solutions. Functional Genetic analysis creates a bridge between the complex and the simple. This test looks at some 40,000 genes in the body, compared with a popular program like 23andme, which currently only looks at 1,000 genes.
Most people who take advantage of this testing have serious conditions that have left them beyond the help of the current practice of medicine. Functional Genetic analysis has been a lifesaver for many who suffer from complex disease patterns. The benefit however, can be realized by everyone who seeks to understand their body's needs more clearly, from elite athletes and professionals to everyone else. If there was ever an individualized Owner's manual for taking care of your body, this is it! Make life extension a reality and expand your Healthy Life expectancy, while maximizing your human potential!
"An overwhelming number of observations support the evidence that genetic background has a key role to play in individual response to diet and life-style, and in shaping individual nutritional requirements." Journal of NutriGenetics and NutriGenomic, 2011
A large number of studies have clearly shown that nutrients alter the expression of genetic information at the level of gene regulation, signal transduction and through alterations in chromatin structure and protein function. Diet can affect the expression levels of genes by acting on transcription factors or by causing epigenetic changes such as methylating DNA. Global changes in gene expression profiles could represent molecular ‘signatures’ that reflect exposure to specific nutrients. Journal of NutriGenetics and NutriGenomics, 2011
The current analysis provides an assessment of 40,000+ possible mutations:

Here's just a few of the possibilities:
- Mutations in the HLA and KIAA1109 genes may increase the chances of Celiac Disease, gluten intolerance, histamine responses and further gut inflammation.
- There is an HLA mutation that indicates increased risk of peanut allergies and mycotoxin sensitivity.
- Caffeine metabolism can be affected by genetic mutations.
- Mutations in the FUT2 enzyme may cause a predisposition to Crohns disease and chronic gut issues.
- People with mutations in SULT may have slowed detoxification and may be sensitive to toxins, hormones, xenobiotics, and heavy metals.
- Studies have shown that individuals with mutations in SNP rs10156191 have a hypersensitivity to NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs).
- GAMT mutations could lead to muscle weakness and lead to Methionine Pathway and methylation issues.
- MAOA mutations have been associated with antisocial behavior, brain inflammation, anxiety, and more.
- MUtations in the OXTR gene can lead to a higher sensitivity to stress.
- Mutations in the SHBG gene increases the chance of higher estrogen and testosterone, with lower progesterone. For women, this may be a contributing factor in PCOS or other hormonal issues related to low progesterone. For men, this can lead to lower testosterone later in life.
- There are a group of cardiovascular genes and the more mutations in these genes, the higher the risk for cardiovascular issues such as heart attack and strokes.
- Studies have shown that individuals with mutations in the “Exercise Recovery Speed” gene group require longer recovery times due to higher levels of inflammation during strenuous exercise.
- Research has shown that certain genetic factors can determine an individual’s exercise injury risk.
- Mutations in the CACNA1C gene may impact the potential to have negative effects from high levels of electrical field exposure and create anxiety.
- Mutations in GLUTs create greater susceptibility to fungal candida and neurological conditions.
In the future, no one will receive medications without first knowing what is happening with their genetics. Genetic variations increase the risk for harmful effects from medications. Ith genetic testing, the era of personalized nutrition is finely a reality. You’re never too young or old to optimize your nutritional and antioxidant status!
You can take this even further with Meta-Omics Analysis -
Meta-Omics Analysis is an integrative approach that combines in-depth analysis of the microbiome along with an advanced understanding of genomics, ionomics, metabolomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, environmental toxins, physiology, and nutrition in order to advance human health. Instead of trying to oversimplify the complexity of the human body, Meta-Omics seizes upon the opportunity to utilize the most up-to-date analytics in order to provide an integrative holistic picture of the state of health in the body.
We utilize testing of the genetics, metabolome (cellular byproducts and nutrient levels), microbiome, hair analysis for ionomics (minerals/elements), and toxic burden, along with an in-depth assessment of each person's health history (including ancestral), to arrive at a more complete picture of where the body stands currently. Each of these assessments by themselves are informative, but together, they represent the most complete diagnostic evaluation possible today. To our knowledge, we are the only ones offering such an integrated analysis based on thousands of hours of research and discovery.
(***Requires purchase of additional MetaOmics tests - NutraEval, Ionomic Hair Analysis, Gut Zoomer, Organic Acids Test, and Total Toxins Burden with PFAS Chemicals)
***Price includes test plus 90+ minute video explanation of the results and a follow-up consultation with Dr. McCombs***
In the future, no one will receive medications without first knowing what is happening with their genetics. Genetic variations increase the risk for harmful effects from medications.
