Cognitive Potential & Mental Resilience

Understanding your child's brain chemistry for optimal focus, mood, and stress management

Cognitive Potential & Mental Resilience Panel

This panel analyses seven neurotransmitter pathways including dopamine, serotonin, and BDNF - the chemical messengers that dictate mood, focus, sleep cycles, and stress resilience.

Brain Chemistry Analysis

Understanding Your Child's Brain Chemistry

Growth and adolescence challenge brain development. This panel analyses seven neurotransmitter pathways including dopamine, serotonin, and BDNF pathways, the "chemical messengers" that dictate mood, focus, sleep cycles, and stress resilience.

Discover if your child's brain chemistry benefits more from specific foods, supplementations or lifestyle changes to support focus and calm.

Neurotransmitter Pathways We Analyze

Dopamine Pathway

Affects motivation, focus, reward-seeking behavior, and attention span.

Serotonin Pathway

Influences mood stability, happiness, sleep quality, and appetite regulation.

BDNF Pathway

Brain-derived neurotrophic factor for learning, memory, and neuroplasticity.

COMT Gene

The "Worrier vs. Warrior" gene affecting stress hormone clearance.

GABA Pathway

Calming neurotransmitter affecting anxiety levels and sleep quality.

Glutamate Pathway

Excitatory neurotransmitter affecting learning, memory, and brain energy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this test diagnose ADHD or Autism?

No. Genetic testing cannot diagnose ADHD or Autism. However, it can identify imbalances in dopamine and serotonin pathways common in neurodivergent children, helping parents support brain chemistry naturally.

My child is very anxious. What can genetics tell us?

We look at the COMT gene (the "Worrier vs. Warrior" gene). This determines how fast their brain clears stress hormones. We provide strategies to help them manage anxiety effectively.

Will this help with my teenager's mood swings?

Yes. If your teen has genetic variants affecting serotonin production, they may feel hormonal shifts more intensely. We suggest lifestyle habits and foods to help stabilise mood.

Does sugar really affect behavior genetically?

Yes. Some children have variants in dopamine receptors that make them crave sugar more intensely for a "dopamine hit," followed by a harder crash. We help identify if your child is a "Sugar Seeker."

Can we use the results to adjust medication?

This is a tool to support the brain, not a medical prescription. Many parents use these insights to optimise nutrition, which can sometimes reduce the need for higher medication doses. Always work with your doctor.

Is caffeine bad for my teen?

It depends on their CYP1A2 gene. Some metabolize caffeine quickly for a performance boost; others metabolize it slowly, leading to anxiety. We tell you which category your teen falls into.
