Description

myDNA Detoxification Report

The myDNA Detoxification Report provides valuable information about your patient’s genetic predispositions related to detoxification processes. This knowledge empowers you to create targeted interventions and support better health outcomes through informed lifestyle and nutritional choices.

 

What is Detoxification?

Detoxification is the body’s natural process of neutralizing and eliminating harmful substances.  It occurs in two phases:

  • Phase I: Enzymes modify toxins, preparing them for phase II. This involves enzymes like CYP1A1, CYP1A2, CYP1B1, CYP2A6, CYP2C9, CYP2C19, CYP2D6, and CYP3A4, which modify toxins for further processing.
  • Phase II: Enzymes conjugate toxins, making them water-soluble for excretion. This involves enzymes like COMT, NAT1, NAT2, GSTM1, GSTP1, and SOD, which conjugate toxins for elimination.
