About this test – DNA Bones Joints & Muscles

Key Benefits

What This Test Measures

Bone Health & Mineralisation
Includes genes involved in bone formation, bone density, vitamin D pathways, calcium balance and bone structure. These insights can help show inherited tendencies related to bone strength and long-term skeletal health.

Joint & Cartilage Health
Covers genes linked to cartilage structure, joint tissue, tissue repair and inflammation. These insights may provide genetic context around mobility, joint resilience and cartilage-related traits.

Muscle Strength & Performance
Includes genes involved in muscle structure, growth, contraction and neuromuscular signalling. Genetic differences in these areas may contribute to variation in strength, power and muscle performance.

Endurance, Energy & Recovery
Focuses on genes involved in energy production, oxygen use, metabolism, antioxidant defence and recovery. These pathways may influence endurance, exercise adaptation and how efficiently the body recovers after activity.

Tendons, Ligaments & Connective Tissue
Includes genes involved in collagen, tissue elasticity, structural support and tissue repair. These genes may help explain inherited differences in how supportive tissues respond to repeated physical load.

Inflammation & Musculoskeletal Response
Covers genes involved in immune activity, inflammatory signalling and the body’s response to physical stress. Genetic differences may influence how strongly inflammatory and repair processes are activated.

Injury Risk & Physical Load
Includes genes associated with tissue structure, biomechanics, repair and response to mechanical stress. These insights may highlight inherited tendencies related to tissue resilience, physical load and injury susceptibility.

How Your Results Are Personalised

Depending on your genetics, different genes and genetic variants may be highlighted in your report. Your results may focus on some of the genes associated with these areas, while also including other genes that are more relevant to your individual DNA profile.

Saliva Sample Collection

The test uses a simple saliva sample collected at home. Collect your sample in the provided tube and send it to the laboratory according to the included instructions.

ISO-Certified Laboratory and Analysis

Your sample is analysed at an ISO-certified laboratory using DNA technology based on the Illumina GSA Microarray, which is used to analyse selected genetic variants.

Biomarkers included – DNA Bones Joints & Muscles

How to prepare – DNA Bones Joints & Muscles

No fasting or physical preparation is required. Avoid eating, drinking, smoking, chewing gum or brushing your teeth immediately before collecting your saliva sample. Because this is a DNA test, your results are not affected by temporary factors such as exercise, diet, sleep or how you feel on the day.

Frequently asked questions – DNA Bones Joints & Muscles

What do genetic biomarkers mean in this test?

Genetic biomarkers are DNA-based traits linked to specific biological functions or predispositions. In this test, they provide insight into areas such as bone health, joints, muscle performance, recovery and injury risk.

Can the test show whether I currently have an injury or disease?

No. This is a genetic predisposition test and does not diagnose current injuries or diseases. It provides information about genetic patterns that may influence certain traits or risks over time.

Is the test relevant if I train a lot?

Yes. The test may be particularly useful if you exercise regularly and want to understand genetic factors related to strength, endurance, muscle recovery, physical load and injury risk.

Can the test help me adapt my training and recovery?

The results may provide useful context for tailoring training, recovery and lifestyle strategies to your genetic profile. Your report also includes personalised recommendations based on the biomarkers analysed.

Does lifestyle affect the result of a DNA test?

No. Your DNA does not change based on your current diet, exercise, sleep or daily routine. Lifestyle can influence how genetic predispositions are expressed, but it does not change the genetic variants measured.

What is the difference between this test and a regular blood test?

A blood test usually measures current biological levels that can change over time, such as vitamins or hormones. A DNA test analyses inherited genetic variants that remain the same throughout life and may provide insight into long-term predispositions.

Are the same genes highlighted for everyone?

Not necessarily. The test analyses a broad range of genes, but the genes and variants highlighted in your personal report can vary depending on your individual DNA profile and which findings are most relevant to your results.

Can this test show which areas I may want to focus on more?

Yes, the test can highlight inherited tendencies related to areas such as bone health, joint health, muscle performance, recovery and response to physical load. This can help you identify areas that may be useful to consider when planning training, recovery, nutrition and lifestyle.
