The Results Are In: My GeneSNP Journey Part 4

 Author: Sean Wells

While I was waiting for my Health Action Plan to arrive, I started doing some of the things that are recommended as good ideas for just about everyone. I started exercising again, I reduced my intake of sweets and—following my own advice—I started taking a multivitamin.

Once my Health Action Plan was delivered, I immediately printed a copy so I could go over it with a highlighter—I’m a little bit Old School—and do some comparing and contrasting between what I thought I was doing and what I actually was. There was a LOT of information packed into this report, and I was able to use all of it, but to list everything would require a series of its own. Instead, I’ll outline some of the key points that really made a difference:

  • B-vitamins: it turned out that I’d only been getting between 50 and 75 percent of what was recommended for me on a daily basis. Changing this definitely made a difference in my energy levels, focus and attitude.
  • Vitamin D: again, I was averaging only about two-thirds of what my genetic profile suggested was best. I made similar changes, and noticed similar improvements.
  • Calcium: I fully admit to having disregarded calcium as something I needed—as a male, I sort of figured this wasn’t a concern for me (only women get osteoporosis, right?), but my Health Action Plan made me think otherwise. Based on my profile, I was getting less than one-third of what I actually need. I’ve made this change too, and though the results aren’t as obvious, I’m thinking they will be in another 30 years or so.

One of the biggest changes I’ve noticed, however, is in body composition. As I’d written in my first post about this journey, I’ve always been about average weight. That said, I have often suspected I suffer from the problem of what is sometimes called Skinny-Fat. This basically means having a healthy Body Mass Index, but an above-average, potentially unhealthy level of actual body fat—some might think of it as “The Last 10 Pounds”.

After a few weeks of eating and exercising based on my Health Action Plan, this has definitely changed. While I knew that GeneSNP provided a diet and exercise profile and recommendations based on genetics—which does sound impressive—I quite honestly didn’t expect the results to be as apparent.



In a way, this provides the best illustration of the fundamental benefit of GeneSNP that I’d always thought was getting missed. It’s a big part of why I decided to take this journey, and it’s something that I, for one, really needed.

It’s hard to know what exact results will come from fulfilling potential, but it seems like they are always a pleasant surprise. The difference between living at 75 or 80 percent and living at 100 percent may not seem like much on paper, but the feeling is very, very different.

Needless to say, everything has been great so far, but my GeneSNP journey—just like any other—is ongoing. As things move from the short-term to the long-term, more results will be reported, and more experiences highlighted. For now, however, I hope this little story of mine has inspired others to make their own journey, and to live at 100 percent.

My GeneSNP Journey Part 3

Author: Sean Wells

On the afternoon that my GeneSNP kit arrived I was definitely ready to get started. As I’d written in my first post, the more I knew about GeneSNP, the more I wanted to know.

It was all pretty straightforward, from what I could tell: swabbing each cheek, for one minute each, would give one sample and one back-up sample for the lab to use. The samples had to be left out for drying over the course of a few hours, then sent out in the prepaid envelope.

This certainly wasn’t a problem–because it’s specified that the sample be given first thing in the morning and my mail typically gets delivered and picked up in the afternoon, the arrangement was pretty much perfect. I went to bed and dreamt about a future filled with advanced genetic knowledge (I’ve been known to be a bit of a science fiction fan).

Gene SNPThe next morning I woke up and followed directions: did a leisurely bit of swabbing on each cheek, then set everything aside for safekeeping–in my house, this usually means on top of the fridge–until it was due to be placed in the envelope. In picking up the envelope, I noticed something for the first time: the envelope was not for the Postal Service, but for Federal Express. I was immediately impressed (“Wow…FedEx delivers DNA”) and then slightly worried. Was this going to foil my plans?

After just a few seconds I realized that Federal Express visits our company every day–and in the afternoon–so everything was still on. Even if I hadn’t been lucky this way, I naturally could have found a drop-off pretty easily, so while this is no major ordeal, it’s worth mentioning that a quick drive might be involved in order to get your sample sent off as quickly as possible.

That afternoon, off it went. At this point, I was really looking forward to my DNA analysis helping me to turn things up a notch with my health plan which, to be honest, might have taken a backseat in recent years. I was definitely invested, getting motivated, and already making plans for what I could start doing until the results came back.

My GeneSNP Journey: Part 2

Author: Sean Wells

 In the first part of this series, I explained a little about what was behind my decision to order a GeneSNP kit. As things progressed, one of the questions that I was finding out was really worth asking was whether or not I knew all there was to know about being healthy. While ordering my GeneSNP Kit–which was the easy part–it occurred to me I quite possibly did not. That part was a little harder.

This realization was exciting for sure, but maybe a little worrying as well. Like anyone with Internet access, I had all the information I could ever want and more–but that meant I had access to all of the misinformation too. The fact that there are entire sites dedicated to filtering through all that’s out there is testimony to the sheer amount of flawed studies, misdirection and even simple, honest mistakes that end up online.

In addition to that, even well-established information comes into question from time to time. A recent post I’ve edited indicated that RDAs might be enough for health hazards, but are not necessarily established with maximum benefits in mind, and made it clear that most people aren’t even aware of what nutrients they are missing. As I’d mentioned in the first part of this series, what prompted all this was the question of whether I was doing my best, and also if I was doing what was best for me.

That final part led me to a final realization. While there are many general “good practices” out there for health, wellness and fitness, these basic bits of advice are limited by a lack of information, and in this case, it’s information that only I can give.

By providing a DNA sample and answering a simple questionnaire, I was going to be the one providing the missing link to all the answers I needed about my own best health. All things considered, I began to understand that was really the least I could do.

I was now looking forward to my kit arriving with ever-growing anticipation. This was going to be good!

My GeneSNP Journey: Part 1


Like most people nowadays, I thought I knew pretty well what genetics were, but until holding this job I wouldn’t say I was familiar with Epigenetics, Nutrigenetics or Nutrigenomics—reading this article helped quite a bit. I think this is where my eyes may have started to open a little, even if I didn’t know it at the time.

Like most people, I felt like I had a good working knowledge of what it meant to be healthy and how to do it (it’s “eat right and exercise”, right?). I’d figured that simple phrasing and of course whatever genetic cards I’d been dealt would be enough to carry me through, and of course if they weren’t, what was I going to do about it, really?

Along these same lines, for most of my life, I’d always thought that my genetics, whatever their nature, were something to be accepted, tolerated and maybe, every once in a while, cursed—depending on my mood. Again, I felt like genetics were something that were just sort of there, unchangeable, and if I happened to be feeling inadequate, I could always blame them.

To be fair, while I certainly have nothing to brag about in this area, I don’t really have anything worthy of complaining about either. I’m about average height, about average weight, and in a roomful of people or on a street corner in the city, I imagine I would just blend in: Caucasian male, medium build, dark hair. I wouldn’t stand out, and chances are good I wouldn’t particularly be noticed, one way or the other.


In truth, it may actually be this overall sense of “average-ness”—so to speak—that has sometimes made me pause and wonder a little about things like doing my best and making the best choices. In general, I’ve always done just fine on my own, but what if I had a little more information? Suppose I had some guidance? Could I do more, maybe, than “just fine”?

This first thought, as it turns out, was the start of my GeneSNP Journey. I’d started to know a little about it, and the more I knew, the more I wanted to know. I’d always believed there was no substitute for experience–maybe this was a way for me to get a few answers and stop wondering.
As might be obvious by now, I was sold. The next step was to order a kit.
