ApoE: Brain & Heart Health Genetic DNA Test - Mouth Swab
ApoE: Brain & Heart Health Genetic DNA Test - Mouth Swab
The ApoE: Brain & Heart Health report Add-On from Nutrigenomix Labs is exclusively available to individuals who have already ordered the Ultimate Methylation DNA Test.
This report examines two well-known genetic markers in the Apolipoprotein E (ApoE) gene, which result in different ApoE protein versions. ApoE influences the transport and metabolism of fats and cholesterol in your body, particularly the brain. Because this gene is a key indicator of risk for cardiovascular disease and late-onset Alzheimer's Disease, understanding your unique variant is a vital step in proactive health management.
Based on your results, the labs have developed a series of actionable recommendations across 10 lifestyle strategies including specific dietary targets, physical activity, sleep hygiene, and social engagement. These strategies are designed to help you bridge the gap between genetic insights and targeted nutritional interventions to support your long-term cognitive and cardiovascular wellness.
As new discoveries in the field of nutrigenomics are made, you will have the opportunity to access this information to further fine-tune your personalised health plan with the help of the Body Fabulous team.
This test can be ordered at the same time as the Ultimate DNA test or it can be ordered within 6 months of your Ultimate methylation test results date.
The DNA used to produce the APOE report is from your original Ultimate cheek swab - no additional swab kit is dispatched.

Q. When do I receive my results?
Results will be sent to you as a lab PDF. The same cheek swab is used for both the Ultimate and the APOE report. If you ordered both tests at the same time then results will be ready at the same time (approx 3 weeks from sample being received back at the labs). If you ordered this test within 6 months of your original Ultimate test then the additional APOE DNA PDF will be ready in approximately 1 week.
Q. I currently have a cold / am taking certain medications – will this affect my results?
No. As we're testing the genetic code, which is fixed, the test is not impacted by illness, infections, medication, the food you eat, or supplements you take.
