Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Fueling the Growing Body Panel

Does this test for food allergies?

It tests for genetic intolerances and sensitivities, not acute allergies (IgE). For example, it can tell you if your child is genetically predisposed to Celiac disease (Gluten) or Lactose Intolerance, but not peanut or strawberry allergies.

My child is a very picky eater. Is this genetic?

It often is. We test for "Bitter Taste Perception" genes. Children with this variant taste bitterness in vegetables much more intensely. Knowing this helps you change cooking methods to make food more palatable.

Can this help with childhood obesity?

Yes. We analyze how your child metabolizes saturated fats vs. carbohydrates. Some children gain weight easily on a high-carb diet, while others are more sensitive to fats. We provide a "macronutrient plate" guide tailored to their metabolism.

Will this help with stomach aches?

Unexplained stomach aches are often linked to inflammation or an inability to break down certain food compounds. By identifying these triggers genetically, we can help you remove the irritants, potentially resolving the discomfort.

Will the report tell me what supplements to give?

Yes. The report includes a personalised "Nutrient & Lifestyle" section highlighting which vitamins and minerals your child may need more of based on their genetic variants.

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 you identify if your child is a "Sugar Seeker" and how to manage cravings.
