Nutrigenomic Testing Greenwood Village CO – DNA Testing

Elevate Health & Wellness provides DNA-informed nutrition evaluations in Greenwood Village, CO for adults who want a more personal way to understand their body, health patterns, and long-term wellness needs. Our practice uses functional medicine, compassionate guidance, and supportive coaching to help you explore how your genetics may influence nutrition, nutrient needs, inflammation patterns, metabolism, energy, movement, restoration, and the way your body responds to the demands of life. Rather than giving you a generic plan, we help break your next steps into bite-sized changes that support self-discovery, clarity, and sustainable progress.

A nutrigenomic evaluation looks at how your genes may influence the way your body responds to nutrients, food patterns, supplements, lifestyle habits, and environmental factors. It is not about labeling your health or predicting your future. It is about learning more about your body so your care can be more personal, informed, and practical.

Nutrigenomics studies the relationship between genes, nutrition, and health. Through this type of genetic nutrition testing, we may gain insight into patterns that affect nutrient processing, methylation, detoxification, inflammation response, metabolic function, and energy production.

At Elevate Health & Wellness, we use this information as one part of a larger functional medicine picture. Your results are reviewed alongside your health history, symptoms, goals, lab findings, daily routines, and the demands you experience in everyday life.

DNA-based nutrition testing begins with conversation, not a lab order. We first take time to understand your health story, your goals, your current concerns, and what kind of support feels realistic for your life.

The process may include a simple DNA sample, depending on the lab recommended. Once results are available, our team reviews them in context. DNA does not tell the whole story on its own, which is why we may also consider other root-cause testing, such as gut health analysis, hormone panels, nutrient testing, thyroid markers, neurotransmitter assessments, or toxin-related evaluations when appropriate.

Functional Medicine DNA Testing With Context

A report alone is not the same as care. Our role is to help you understand what your results may mean and how they can be translated into daily decisions. We explain the information clearly, answer your questions, and help you take manageable steps that fit your real life.

Genetic nutrition testing may help identify tendencies in how your body processes nutrients, responds to certain food patterns, supports detoxification, manages inflammation, and uses energy. These insights can be helpful when you feel like general health advice has not fully addressed your needs.

Your results may provide insight into areas such as:

• Nutrient needs
• Vitamin metabolism
• Methylation pathways
• Detoxification support
• Inflammation response
• Metabolic patterns
• Food and nutrient processing
• Caffeine sensitivity
• Hormone-related pathways
• Brain health and neurotransmitter support
• Cardiometabolic wellness
• Restoration needs
• How your body responds to daily demands

These results show patterns and possibilities, not fixed outcomes. The goal is to help you better understand your body so your care plan can be more thoughtful, personal, and supportive.

A DNA nutrition test may be a helpful fit if you want a deeper understanding of your body and are looking for guidance that goes beyond general wellness advice. Many people come to this type of evaluation after feeling overwhelmed by conflicting information about food, supplements, movement, energy, or long-term health.

You may be a good candidate if you:

• Want a more personalized nutrition plan
• Feel unsure which wellness recommendations truly fit your body
• Want to better understand energy, nutrient needs, or inflammation patterns
• Are interested in functional medicine testing
• Want recommendations that align with your genetics, lifestyle, and goals
• Prefer small, sustainable changes instead of overwhelming plans
• Want support from both a functional medicine physician and wellness coach
• Value guidance that encourages self-discovery and clarity

At Elevate Health & Wellness, testing is not ordered as a stand-alone service. We begin with a discovery call and initial consultation so our team can understand your needs, goals, and whether this type of evaluation is the right next step.

Functional medicine genetic testing helps us look at your health through a more personalized lens. Functional medicine does not focus only on symptoms. It asks why patterns may be happening and what kind of support your body may need to function more effectively.

Nutrigenomic insights may help guide:

• Nutrition recommendations
• Movement planning
• Restoration strategies
• Supplement conversations
• Nutrient support
• Inflammation support
• Metabolic health planning
• Long-term wellness goals

We consider genetic results alongside your health history, lab findings, lifestyle, environment, sleep routine, sleep  hygiene, and daily demands. This gives us a more complete picture and helps us build a care plan that feels personal, adaptive, and realistic.

A nutrition plan based on DNA may help explain why certain food patterns, nutrients, or daily habits may support one person differently than another. The purpose is not to create a restrictive diet or focus on calorie control. It is to help you build a more informed and supported relationship with your body.

Your personalized nutrition journey may include guidance around:

• Food patterns that support your body’s needs
• Nutrient intake and absorption
• Digestive support
• Energy support
• Practical habit changes
• Sustainable routines

Coach Neill helps translate recommendations into daily actions that feel achievable. We believe small steps deserve recognition. Each change can become part of a larger process of self-realization, helping you notice what supports your body and what may be getting in the way.

DNA-informed nutrition may help uncover genetic tendencies related to inflammation response, nutrient utilization, metabolic function, and energy production. This can be especially helpful if you have felt like generic plans do not reflect what your body is experiencing.

Testing does not guarantee a specific result, and it is not used to make broad promises. Instead, it helps our team make more informed decisions about nutrition, movement, restoration, and supplement support.

Personalized Wellness Testing For Daily Energy And Recovery

Your body’s response to daily demands can affect how you feel, recover, focus, and maintain steady energy. By reviewing your results within a functional medicine framework, we can help identify areas where your body may need more intentional support.

A DNA test for vitamin needs may help guide supplement conversations, but it should not be the only factor used to choose supplements. Genetics can show possible tendencies in nutrient metabolism, but your current health status, medications, symptoms, bloodwork, and other testing also matter.

At Elevate Health & Wellness, supplement recommendations are personalized and clinically reviewed. We do not encourage patients to self-prescribe based only on a genetic report. Instead, we help you understand what your results may suggest and how those insights fit into a safe, thoughtful care plan.

Your supplement plan may be adjusted over time as your body responds, your needs shift, and your health goals evolve.

A personalized nutrition DNA test is only one part of the care experience. At Elevate Health & Wellness, the process is designed to feel supportive, clear, and unhurried.

Your experience may include:

• A discovery call through our online contact form, email, or phone
• An initial consultation with Dr. Crystal Dickerson and Coach Neill
• A review of your health history, goals, concerns, nutrition, movement, restoration, and daily demands
• A conversation about whether DNA-based testing is appropriate
• DNA sample collection if testing is recommended
• Result review and interpretation
• Personalized care planning
• Bite-sized action steps
• Coaching support for sustainable changes
• Ongoing accountability through the membership model

Our practice does not operate as a test-only office. This evaluation is part of a broader functional medicine relationship designed to help you understand your body and take meaningful steps toward better health.

The timeline for genetic testing for nutrition can vary depending on the lab, the type of test used, and processing times, but 4 weeks is a typical turnaround time once a saliva sample is collected. Once your results are available, our team reviews them before discussing them with you so the information can be explained in the context of your full health picture.

The interpretation visit is an important part of the process. You should not have to sort through a complex report alone. We help translate the findings into practical next steps and explain how the results may connect to nutrition, movement, restoration, daily demands, and other areas of your care.

The cost of DNA-based wellness testing can vary depending on the type of testing recommended, your care plan, and whether additional functional medicine assessments are needed. There are several different genetic panels to choose from, including those that specifically look at nutrient utilization, detox capability, and methylation to more comprehensive panels that include all of these markers.  Pricing ranges from $300 to $850.

Elevate Health & Wellness uses a hybrid membership model that includes a monthly membership fee, with office visits submitted to insurance. Our practice accepts insurance, and our team can help you understand current membership, visit, and testing details before you move forward.
