Myths vs facts: INFINITY DNA-Test | inkl. 28-Tage-Plan & Rezeptbuch and Allergie

The INFINITY DNA Test by MyBody-X combines genetic analysis with a 28-day plan, recipe book, and an allergy test. Fact check: The DNA-based dietary recommendations rely on single gene variants with mostly tiny effect sizes (e.g., rs1800795 for blood pressure, rs4680 for stress). Such markers cannot precisely prescribe an individual diet – weight loss is primarily driven by calorie balance, exercise, and behavior. Evidence for personalized DNA diets is weak and often marketing-driven. The allergy test measures IgE sensitization, not necessarily clinical allergy. False positives are common, especially in children. A 28-day plan and recipe book can be useful as general dietary guidance, but not as a scientifically validated personalized strategy. Bottom line: The test provides interesting but limited information. It should not be the sole basis for diet or treatment decisions. Consult a doctor for allergies.
