Ordering the NeuroGenomic Profile | Europe
The NeuroGenomic Profile | Europe helps identify genetic markers linked to how the brain processes mood, memory, and focus. This test can show if certain genes may affect how your body handles stress, attention, and emotional balance. Interestingly, some people with frequent headaches or trouble sleeping may have genetic differences that influence how their brain uses important nutrients.
Ordering this test can help you:
- Find out if you have gene changes that affect how your brain uses vitamins and minerals.
- See if your body has trouble clearing toxins that can impact brain function.
- Learn if your genes make you more likely to have mood swings or trouble focusing.
- Get information about your risk for memory loss or cognitive decline.
- Understand if your genes affect how your nerves handle pain or stress.
Who Should Consider Genetic Brain Health Testing
People who notice they often feel tired, have trouble focusing at work or school, or experience mood changes that make daily tasks harder may benefit from this test. For example, someone who has tried different ways to improve their memory or mood but still struggles could use this test to find out if their genes play a role.
Ordering this test may also be helpful if you:
- Have a family history of memory loss or neurodegenerative diseases.
- Experience frequent migraines or unexplained headaches.
- Struggle with sleep problems like insomnia or waking up often at night.
- Notice changes in your ability to learn new things or remember details.
- Have a history of nerve pain that does not improve with usual treatments, which can sometimes be linked to genetic detoxification issues.
This test gives clear answers about how your genes may affect brain function, mood, and memory, helping you and your doctor make more informed choices. Delaying this test could mean missing the chance to address genetic factors early, which may help prevent symptoms from getting worse.
Preparing for Your Brain Function Genetics Test
No fasting is needed before this test, but always check the test kit instructions for any special steps. Make sure to carefully follow any directions your doctor or healthcare provider gives you to help the process go smoothly.
Labs Included When Ordering Your NeuroGenomic Profile
| Test Name | Reference Range | What This Marker Means | Low and High Levels of NeuroGenomic Profile |
|---|---|---|---|
| Methylation | |||
| MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) | No mutation detected | MTHFR helps your body use folate, which is needed for brain chemicals and DNA repair. Changes in this gene can affect mood, memory, and focus. |
High levels mean your body may have trouble processing folate, leading to higher homocysteine.
Low levels mean normal folate processing and lower risk for related symptoms. |
| COMT | No mutation detected | COMT helps break down dopamine and other brain chemicals. Variations can affect stress response, mood, and attention. |
High levels mean slower breakdown of dopamine, which can cause anxiety or trouble focusing.
Low levels mean faster breakdown, which may lead to low motivation or mood swings. |
| Detoxification | |||
| GSTM (glutathione-s-transferase, M, isoforum) | No mutation detected | GSTM helps remove toxins from the body. Changes in this gene can affect how well your brain is protected from harmful substances. |
High levels mean reduced ability to clear toxins, which may increase risk for nerve pain or headaches.
Low levels mean normal detoxification and lower risk for toxin buildup. |
| GSTP (glutathione-s-transferase, P, isoforum) | No mutation detected | GSTP is another detox gene that helps protect brain cells from damage. Variants can affect how your body handles stress and environmental toxins. |
High levels mean less protection from toxins, which can lead to more frequent headaches or brain fog.
Low levels mean better protection and normal toxin removal. |
| Oxidative Protection | |||
| SOD-2 (Superoxide dismutase -2) | No mutation detected | SOD-2 helps protect brain cells from damage caused by free radicals. Changes in this gene can affect memory, mood, and nerve health. |
High levels mean less protection from oxidative stress, which may increase risk for memory loss or nerve pain.
Low levels mean normal protection and lower risk for cell damage. |
Reference ranges may change slightly as labs update their methods and guidelines.
