What role does INFINITY DNA-Test | inkl. 28-Tage-Plan & Rezeptbuch play in Haut?

The INFINITY DNA Test with a 28-day plan and recipe book is a commercial product that analyzes genetic variants and derives personalized dietary recommendations – including for skin health. The rationale: certain gene variants (e.g., in collagen metabolism, antioxidant pathways, or inflammatory processes) may influence the need for nutrients like vitamin C, zinc, or omega-3s, which are relevant to skin. The included plan and recipe book aim to translate these insights into practice. However, the scientific evidence for direct skin improvements from such nutrigenetic tests is weak. Most SNPs have small effect sizes, and randomized controlled trials demonstrating a clear benefit for skin are lacking. Furthermore, genetic testing in Germany is regulated by the Genetic Diagnostics Act (GenDG), which restricts medical interpretation without a physician's indication. The test may serve as a motivational tool for healthier eating but should not be considered diagnostic or therapeutic for skin conditions. Anyone with specific skin concerns should consult a dermatologist.
