I’ve been given an array of foods to focus on. The truth is, I was pretty close intuitively, but the key is know the breakdown of carbs, protein and fats. That’s where I was off. You need that equation. I have just begun, but I feel like I will have more success now. EDIT: 2 weeks later and I’m down 5 pounds without struggling!

Purchased it alongside my parents because my sister bought it a while back and after making a few adjustments based on their recommendations she lost a lot of weight and looks/feels healthier. My parents have struggled with weight loss for a variety of health reasons and have tried all sorts of fad diets out there but nothing has worked. Seeing my sister's GenoPalate results compared with all of ours and knowing our family's medical history helped us put the pieces together for how to incorporate foods that catered to our nutritional/metabolic needs. GenoPalate's app breaks down each recommendation based on specific genes found and links to medical research that backs up the recommendation. My mom is a nurse and she was very impressed with how thorough they were. The only critique/suggestion I would have is that unless you buy recipes from them, you're left to do a lot more digging to understand how to create a meal plan out of the few ingredients they recommend you add to your diet. And some of the ingredients are hard to come by in a supermarket and may require going to a specialty store, which not everyone has access to.

I really loved my results and the recipes that I get. Opened my eyes as to why some foods make me feel awful

Kelly did a great job answering questions to the best of her ability, but there were more than could have been accomodated in 45 mins. The session was targeted to folks with no background in nutrition or genetics, and I and a few of the other people in the room would have appreciated a deeper dive. I would suggest running some "advanced" sessions so that we can get more into the complex questions and spend less time on overview.

Pretty cool nutrient & food recommendations. Many were already some of my favorite foods, but there were a few surprises and new insights. Fairly cheap if you already have your DNA sequenced through 23&Me or Ancestry. Would love to see more in depth nutrient breakdowns on the recommended foods. Would also love a searchable dictionary of all the foods in the GenoPalate database, broken out by food type. Would be interesting to be able to select any given food in this dictionary and see the nutrient breakdown, as well as an icon showing the relative "fitness" of the food to my GenoPalate results (best, great, good... but also not so good and bad).

I received a thorough report.

Wish they included more information on food choices!

I like GeoPalate and have appreciated some of the insights. However, I wish they would provide more normal foods--especially meat/seafood. I am not going to eat chicken livers so what could I eat instead that would be comparable. I am not going to eat ostrich or eels. What could I eat instead?
