Your results use peer-reviewed research in nutrigenetics to calculate your ideal intake for 23 nutrients based on your DNA. This includes whether you may benefit from a low, moderate, or high intake for macronutrients (carbohydrates, fats and protein) as well as micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). 

These recommendations are designed to help you reach optimal health and prevent chronic disease.

Finally, you’ll receive a personalized food list containing over 100 foods that best match your genetic-based nutrient needs. For example, if your genes suggest that you need high zinc and high vitamin B12 one of your suggested meats may be lean ground beef because it contains high amounts of zinc and B12. 

Your list will cover 16 different food categories including your top starches, leafy vegetables, meats, fruits, and many more. These options will make it easy for you to shop and eat for the foods healthiest for you.

Mobile App Release Notes

Web App Release Notes

Today's release includes an exciting update that allows you to scan the nutrient profile of any optimal food and see why it is a good match for your unique needs. We include exact nutrient amounts and a unique daily value percentage, which is based on another new feature - your personalized calorie recommendation. Your new calorie recommendation considers your age, gender, height, weight, activity level, and health goals. Don't forget to view your macronutrients page to see how your new calorie recommendation affected your results!

If you didn't receive an insight for alcohol sensitivity, then this release is for you. We've added additional genetic variants into our analysis so that more than 99% of our users will see a genetic result for alcohol in their mobile and web app. The language around these insights was also updated to describe your rate of alcohol metabolism rather than your sensitivity level to alcohol. If your results used to say “Likely Sensitive” or “Unlikely Sensitive,” you will now see “Slow Metabolizer” or “Normal Metabolizer.” 

Today's release features an updated Optimal Foods page on our mobile and web app. This new design utilizes green trophy icons to showcase which foods have the very best nutritional match for your genes. While all the foods on your list are good matches, the foods that best fit your nutrition needs are listed at the top.

Not sure how to combine your Optimal Foods? Try our personalized recipes, which our registered dietitians tailor to your unique food recommendations. Upon purchase, your recipes will now be delivered inside your GenoPalate mobile or web app account! Just look for the recipe tab on the bottom navigation on mobile, or on the top navigation on web.

We are excited to announce the launch of a brand new DNA Report! This is the first in-depth stress insights report based on your DNA. Get deeper insights into how your genes impact your stress levels and how nutrition can help. This report can help uncover your triggers, learn if stress disrupts your sleep, find foods that can boost your mood, and discover your levels of feel-good chemicals.

Are you unsure what to do with uncommon foods, such as eel, rabbit, or kohlrabi, on your Optimal Foods into practice? We hear you. Now, you can remove these uncommon foods by simply toggling on/off the Uncommon Foods filter on the Optimal Foods page. When hidden, these foods get replaced with your next best foods. Happy eating for your genes!

We've heard from many of you about how our app has a lot of information to sort through. We want to make sure you know where to find all of the good stuff, so we've developed a quick Mobile App Intro Tour. Five screens were designed and tested with customers to address some of the most common questions our GenoPalate community has asked. 

Does your DNA say you’re a late night snacker? Now you can find out with the new GenoPalate Eating Insights Report! Users who've purchased the GenoPalate Plus or Premium packages will now see their Eating Insights results in our mobile app. This report uncovers tendencies for certain cravings, emotional eating patterns, taste preferences, meal timing and more. Have fun exploring!

Starting today, you can let us know if your genetic results for gluten, lactose, caffeine and alcohol are true to what you experience. Just go to one of the sensitivity pages on the mobile app and answer the question on the bottom of the page. Spoiler alert: based on your answer, you’ll receive a personalized tip on what you should do next. Happy sensitivity management!

In today’s release, we’re giving the gluten, lactose, caffeine and alcohol pages a design refresh. This update makes it easier way to learn about your genes, what they do, and how they impact your health. However, genetics don’t always tell the whole story. That’s why we’ve also added a section about what non-genetic factors influence how sensitive you are to gluten, lactose, caffeine and alcohol. If one of your sensitivity results surprised you, these can help you pinpoint why so that you can better manage your sensitivities.

Say hello to our new and improved home page design! This update includes a revamped home page with a more visual layout that your eyes will thank us for. You’ll also find new summary pages for your macro and micronutrient recommendations. These pages make it easier to see which nutrients your genes impacted. And because doing math is no fun, the new macro summary page will also let you convert your percentage recommendation into daily calories or grams by using a quick and easy toggle.
