Consumer Genetic Tests
Does genetic information influence behaviour?
I have the gene,
so I eat healthily.
I have the gene,
so what can I do?
 DNA-based dietary advice resulted in:
 greater understanding of recommendations
 greater interest in learning more
 greater motivation to change eating habits
 Greater compliance after 1 year.

• Linked genetics and alcohol consumption in 105,000
light and heavy drinkers
• β-Klotho (KLB) gene linked to social alcohol
consumption
• A allele is associated with reduced desire to
consume alcohol (possessed by 40% of study
population)
• Tests 10 genes
• Also provides questionnaire for feedback after each
wine trial, to help better suit future pairings
Is DNA-based Dietary Advice Ready for
Prime Time? Yes
• Scientific evidence is robust (studies replicated)
• Independent of ethnic background
• Improved compliance (evidence from RCT)
• Information is actionable and “personalized”
• Increasing consumer awareness and demand
• Focus on wellness/prevention, not disease treatment
~1/3 of consumers will focus on personalized nutrition
“…making day-to-day decisions about what to
eat based on their particular genetic makeup.”

“Positive health requires a knowledge of man’s primary
constitution and of the powers of various foods, both
those natural to them and those resulting from human
skill.”
