Metabolic Health Panel & Report
Overview
- Metabolic health is the foundation of long-term wellness, influencing how individuals process nutrients, regulate weight, and respond to dietary patterns. ExtendingME’s Metabolic Health Profile analyzes 65+ SNPs to uncover genetic predispositions related to nutrient metabolism, eating behavior, taste perception, and metabolic disease risk.
- This panel provides healthcare professionals with precision insights into diet response, eating behaviors, and cardiometabolic vulnerabilities, empowering providers to create personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies that optimize health outcomes, prevent chronic disease, and enhance patient care.
What This Test Covers
Taste Perception
Evaluates genetic influences on food preferences and palatability that impact dietary choices
- Sweet Taste Perception
- Bitter Taste Perception
Eating Behavior
Assesses genetic predisposition to patterns that affect weight regulation and dietary compliance
- Tendency to Snack
Macronutrient Metabolism
Examines how the body processes key dietary macronutrients, influencing energy balance and weight management
- Carbohydrate Response
- Protein Response
- Saturated Fat Response
- Unsaturated Fat Benefits
Metabolic Health Disorder
Identifies genetic risks for chronic metabolic conditions and cardiovascular outcomes
- Weight Management
- Cholesterol Regulation
- Type 2 Diabetes Risk
- Triglyceride Dysregulation
- Coronary Artery Disease Risk
- Myocardial Infarction Risk
- Hypertension Risk
Why It Matters
The Metabolic Health Panel gives healthcare professionals a powerful lens into metabolic well-being, enabling them to
- Identify early risk for metabolic disorders before clinical onset
- Create precision nutrition and lifestyle plans for weight, cardiovascular, and diabetes prevention
- Target metabolic pathways to regulate blood sugar, lipid profiles, and cardiovascular health
- Differentiate the practice with evidence-based genomics in preventive and functional medicine
Who Should Take This Test
The Metabolic Health Panel is ideal for healthcare professionals who work with
Individuals at elevated risk for obesity, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease who want preventive, data-driven care.
Performance-focused clients who require tailored macronutrient and energy strategies for peak results.
Midlife and older adults aiming to reduce cardiometabolic risks and maintain vitality.
Wellness, nutrition, and integrative medicine practices seeking to deliver next-level, personalized health solutions.
