What to watch with NutriCare | INFINITY DNA-Test and gut health?

The NutriCare | INFINITY DNA test by MyBody-X primarily analyzes genes related to stress, detoxification, and neurotransmitters – not gut health directly. Markers like NFE2L2 (antioxidant capacity) and SLC6A4 (serotonin transport) may indirectly influence the gut-brain axis or inflammatory tendencies, but they cannot replace microbiome analysis or clinical assessment. Bloating (as discussed in MyBody-X's article) often has multifactorial causes: FODMAPs, dysbiosis, stress, or enzyme deficiencies. DNA alone cannot detect nutrient deficiencies or acute gut issues. A combined approach with a microbiome test and possibly blood biomarkers is more informative. The evidence for direct links between these genetic variants and specific gut symptoms is weak to mechanistic. Do not base dietary or supplement decisions for gut health solely on DNA results.
