Analyse Booklet | Testergebnisse in Buchform: what does this mean exactly?

The 'Analysis Booklet' or 'Test Results in Book Form' is a personalized report that MyBody-X customers receive after analysis of their submitted samples (e.g., saliva for DNA tests or blood for biomarkers). It compiles tested genetic variants, blood values, and microbiome data, presented with color-coded charts, traffic-light systems, and explanatory text. Results are categorized into areas like nutrition, sports, sleep, or stress. The aim is to make complex lab results accessible to laypeople and provide lifestyle recommendations. Importantly, this is not a medical diagnosis but lifestyle-oriented information. The scientific evidence behind many recommendations is often weak (GWAS, mechanistic studies) and tends to be overstated in the booklet. Critically, individual genetic variant effect sizes are usually very small, and results should not be used for treatment decisions without consulting a doctor. The booklet is best viewed as an informative reference, not a clinical report.
