Gene FoodReviews of mygenefood.com

I have been impressed with the quality of information at this site. I finally know what I should eat, based on my own genes, not from what some diet guru believes. There's all kinds of information about diet, genes, lab draws, latest studies in nutrition and much more. They're obviously personally invested in the science. They have been responsive to my questions and very helpful. I have gotten a GeneFood diet report for myself my husband, and plan to get one for my sons. At last, I have a much better idea what is the right 'fuel' for my body.

I was a bit hesitant to purchase a nutrition plan through My Gene Food, as I wasn't sure how useful I would really find it for my lifestyle. I've never been a 'health-nut' type person, usually eating more junk than produce, and sitting more than moving. The countless times I've tried to be healthier, I've always inevitably become sick and regressed. I've tried countless standard "diets" like low carb and paleo, only to gain more and more weight after I inevitably 'fail'. After going back to My Gene Food's page numerous times over the course of a few days, I finally decided to give them a try and submitted my 23&me data for a nutrition plan. I have to say, it's one of the best decisions I've made recently! The report is very easy to read, and provided excellent explanation of WHY I react to some things differently than others. There's no major gimmick of 'count X carbs' or 'buy our book' or 'take this weird supplement you've never heard of'. It's plain, simple and tailored to my odd little genetic compilation. Some of the topics I had never really thought of before (for example - my caffeine consumption and reaction), and some I had never been able to make a decision on (should I quit dairy? gluten? meat?) I've made some small changes over the time since I received my report and it's made more difference than all of the previous 'diets' I've tried combined. Usually a diet like low-carb or paleo, etc, leaves me feeling tired and inevitably sick - and now I understand why. It's not that I'm destined to be unhealthy, and it's not that those diets are 'bad' - they just weren't right for me. :) If you're on the fence and have always felt a bit "lost" when it came to health - I highly recommend trying My Gene Food's nutrition plan. Additionally, when I did reach out to their customer support, they were quick to respond and extremely helpful. I 100% recommend My Gene Food to anyone who feels overwhelmed by "dieting" or living a healthy lifestyle.

Exactly what I wanted: a diet template based on my genetic data. I've tried several other companies, including insidertracker and DNAfit; if your primary concern is diet then I would absolutely recommend Gene Food as the best of the bunch. The report you get is nuanced, readable and actionable. And their customer service is great!

My husband has Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease. I had been told by my husband's neurologist to let him eat whatever he wanted because, in the end, it didn't matter. Friends and family members were recommending that he should be eating "this" diet or "that" diet. The many voices were so conflicting and confusing. All I wanted to do was whatever would be best for him, so I began my research. That research began 3 years ago and then recently, I found "My Gene Food" and it has been life-changing. Finally, a gene-specific recommendation of my husband's personal-best nutrition plan for both macro and micronutrients. This has been a game-changer for us. My husband feels better and is more clear-minded and less tired during the day. And those many voices telling me that we should be doing "this" or "that" do not influence me like they used to because, now I know what is best, and why. Also, a side note, I have had nothing but good interactions with the company. I called with a question and John O'Connor promptly picked up my call. He patiently took time with me and even included Dr. Aaron Gardner, their geneticist and involved their team right there on the spot. Thank you "My Gene Food" you have changed our lives for the better!

Insightful, surprising and confirming all at once.

I first became interested in Gene Food because of their blog, which I've found to be one of the most interesting and non-ideological nutrition blogs on the web. I then got their personalized nutrition report, which was well worth the money even though I've had a serious interest in nutrition for almost four decades now. I also found their customer support to be very good as well.

My experience with the information has been excellent. I would have given them 5 stars but they did not answer an email i sent them..so it's a 4.

After reading the Gene Food blog for a while, I decided to order my Gene Food diet and I am very happy with the quality and quantity of information. This report really made me rethink and change my diet.
