“The joint aches, anxiety and low moods have gone”

Vitamins and minerals are vital for maintaining optimal health and wellbeing. They support various bodily functions, from immune system function to energy production and bone health. Imbalances or deficiencies in these nutrients can lead to a range of health issues, emphasising the importance of maintaining adequate levels for overall vitality. This is a journey that our customer, Adam experienced himself using our Vitamins & Minerals DNA Test.

“I first came across MyHealthChecked after searching online for DNA Vitamin and Mineral Tests, as I was curious to see what was causing my low energy and aching joints. The test was by far the easiest and simplest that I’ve ever done - it took less than five minutes and the actual cheek swab only took 60 seconds.

I had a rough idea of what to expect but the results were quite an eye-opener for me. I learnt that for most of my life, even in the summer months, I’ve been deficient in vitamin D! For me, finding out my risk factors for vitamin D was high explained my low moods, anxiety, joint aches and never feeling at full health - despite keeping myself physically fit. Half of the other vitamins and minerals results came back as medium risk, and the rest were low risk.

Since receiving my results, I now take vitamin D, Methyl Folate and a probiotic every day and have done for the last three months, and the joint aches, anxiety and low moods have gone. My cardiovascular fitness and daily energy levels have also doubled. I actually feel fit and healthy whereas before, I’d have to exercise to feel good!

I’ll be taking these supplements for the rest of my life, as my test results have showed me there’s no amount of food or sunlight that’ll change my genetic deficiencies. However, I’m happy with that – I can easily see how much of a difference it’s made to my day-to-day health and well-being, since making these changes.”
