DNA App Spotlight: Reach Peak Performance with DNA Apps from Toolbox Genomics

Toolbox Genomics builds DNA apps focused on precision health and performance. The team believes in making the science of genetics practical and actionable. This spotlight covers four Toolbox Genomics apps available in the Partner Marketplace.

App Spotlight 1: TBG Total Wellness

The TBG Total Wellness report is the comprehensive Toolbox Genomics option. Powered by more than 12,000 published research papers and studies, it covers nutrition, weight management, body composition, and endurance performance in one report. It includes three personalized health action plans:

• Nourish covers your nutritional profile and dietary needs specific to your genetics
• Thrive covers weight management, body composition, and eating behaviors
• RunDNA covers endurance performance, training, and recovery

If you want all three areas covered in one report, TBG Total Wellness is the place to start. The three apps below are also available individually.

App Spotlight 2: Nourish

Whether you are taking the first steps toward positive lifestyle changes or are a hard-training athlete, optimizing your nutrition is one of the keys to success. The Nourish report was designed to end confusion about what you need to eat to stay in peak condition. It assesses 26 traits across 50 genes to provide nutritional guidance suited to any level of activity.

Inside the Nourish report, you will find:

• A nutritional profile identifying the dietary needs specific to your genetics, along with potential micronutrient deficiency risk factors
• Vitamin and nutrient recommendations that take the guesswork out of identifying ongoing nutrient support your body needs
• Supplement and dietary guidance to help you understand where you may need extra support

App Spotlight 3: Thrive

Your unique genetics can present meaningful challenges when trying to manage weight, body mass, or lean muscle profile. Some people have a genetic predisposition to obesity and a high BMI. Others struggle to add weight regardless of how much they eat or train. The Thrive report analyzes 16 traits and 22 genes to provide a deeper look at how your body functions for your specific body composition goals.

Inside the Thrive report, you will learn about:

• Dietary factors, including a customized breakdown of which nutrients may be most important for your health
• Eating behaviors, including your predisposition to snacking, mindful eating, or binge eating and steps you can take to address them
• Sleep factors, including how your genetics affect sleep quality and how that influences your dietary choices
• Exercise recommendations tailored to your genetics for achieving your body composition goals

App Spotlight 4: RunDNA

Your body's response to endurance training is influenced by your cardiovascular system, cellular metabolism, and the genes that underpin both. The RunDNA report assesses 24 genetic traits across 47 genes identified as critical for endurance health and performance.

Inside the RunDNA report, you will find:

• Endurance indicators, including VO2 max, lactate threshold, and other markers of how far you can push your body
• Training recommendations to help you reach peak endurance performance by leveraging your genetics
• Rest and recovery strategies to help your body adapt to endurance training while limiting injury risk

How to Access These Reports

These are just four of the many DNA analysis apps available in the Partner Marketplace, many of which are free. Apps can analyze DNA data from any DNA test such as 23andMe, AncestryDNA, and MyHeritage. Simply upload your DNA data to get started. For the most complete analysis, Sequencing offers clinical grade whole genome sequencing that reads 100% of your DNA across all of your over 30,000 genes.
