| Genetic SNIPS - Digestion | Gene Name | Standard Process Products | MediHerb Products | Research |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ALA to EPA and DHA Conversion-FADS2 - This genotype may be associated with the ability to convert plant-based omega-3 ALA (walnuts, flax seeds, pumpkin seeds) to EPA and DHA. Prebiotics, Probiotics and B12-FUT2 - The rs601338 FUT2 AG genotype in European, African, and Indian populations is associated with intermediate B12 levels and improved bifidobacteria populations in the gut compared to the AA genotype, increasing immune function against respiratory infections. *Focus on consuming bioavailable sources of vitamin B12. | Fatty Acid Desaturase 2 | Flax Oil With B6 Cataplex B12 B Vitality With CoQ10 Cataplex B-Core |

Milk Thistle Forte LivCo |
8. PubMedCen Article |
| Beta Carotene to Vitamin A Conversion Rate-BCMO1 - This genotype may be associated with the conversion rate of plant-based beta carotene (squash, sweet potatoes, carrots) to vitamin A. This increases your need for foods higher in vitamin A like eggs, cod liver oil, wild salmon oil and organ meats for skin, digestion, healthy eyes, lungs, and immunity. *Meet the RDA for vitamin A daily. | Beta Carotene Oxygenase 1 | Cataplex A Cataplex A-C-P Cod Liver Oil |
9. PubMed Article | |
| B6-NBPF3 - This genotype may be associated with the likelihood of having low B6 levels due to variants in the NBPF3 gene, increasing the sensitivity to medications that deplete B6 (oral contraceptives, antibiotics, ACE inhibitors, antacids, proton pump inhibitors and more). The focus, if postiive, should be on increasing foods high in B6 like wild salmon, pistachios, avocados and potatoes. | Neuroblastoma breakpoint family, member 3 | B6 Niacinamide Cataplex B-Core |
10. Fitness Genes Article 11. PubMed Artcle 12. PubMed Article 13. PubMed Article |
|
| Ghrelin and Appetite-FTO - This genotype may be associated with ghrelin levels (hunger hormone) that could lead to overeating and abdominal weight gain, especially when combined with variants in the ANKK1 gene. A focus should be on a protein and fiber-rich breakfast, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats, 7-8 hours of sleep per night, healthy vitamin D levels and aerobic exercise over 1 hour or high intensity exercise to stabilize ghrelin levels. | Fat mass and obesity-associated proteinĀ also known as alpha-ketoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase FTO | Chromium Complex | DiGest Forte Gymnema (before meals) |
14. PubMedCen Article |
| Carbohydrates-TCF7L2 - This genotype may be associated with an increased probability of elevated blood sugar from refined sugar and grains. A diet low in refined sugar and flour, higher in protein and omega-3 fatty acids, glycine, diversified prebiotic foods, olive oil, cinnamon, turmeric, dark roast coffee and cordyceps mushrooms may be more beneficial. *Consume most grain products as whole grains. | transcription factor 7-Like 2 | Chromium Complex Diaplex |
Gymnema Black Cumin Seed Forte |
15. Nature Article 16. Mutagenesis Article |
| Stress and IBS-ADRB2 - This genotype may be associated with a higher percentage of digestive disorders, IBS, and anxiety from elevated adrenaline levels. If you experience any of these, you may benefit from a deep breathing practice, meditation, yoga, vitamin C, and magnesium to modulate adrenaline levels. | β2 adrenergic receptor 2 | E-Z Mg Okra Pepsin E3 Gastrex Pituitrophin PMG |

| Gluten Sensitivity-HLA DQ2.5-This genotype, associated to high risk of CD, carries the HLA- DQA1 *05 and HLA- DQB1*02 predisposing alleles, in trans configuration. The alleles encode the DQ2.5 heterodimer responsible of gluten peptide presentation on the surface of antigen-presenting cells (APCs), and consequent pathogenic CD4 + T cell activation. | Human Leukocyte Antigen DQ2 | Okra Pepsin E3 Enzycore Zypan Dermatrophin PMG Immuplex |

| Celiac-HLA DQ8-As a unique serotype, HLA-DQ8 is most commonly linked to autoimmune diseases including celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, and juvenile diabetes. 3 For reasons unknown, this gene can turn the body's defenses against itself, directing the immune system to attack and destroy its own cells. | Human Leukocyte Antigen DQ8 | Okra Pepsin E3 Enzycore Zypan Dermatrophin PMG Immuplex |

| Iron Absoprtion-TFR2-The TFR2 gene provides instructions for making a protein called transferrin receptor 2 to help iron enter liver cells. The receptor on the surface of liver cells binds to transferrin, which transports iron through the blood to tissues throughout the body. When transferrin binds to transferrin receptor 2, iron is allowed to enter the cell. | transferrin receptor 2 | Zypan Ferrofood Trace Minerals B12 Chlorophyll Complex |
