Hesitant to purchase, but so glad I did!
I was a bit hesitant to purchase a nutrition plan through My Gene Food, as I wasn't sure how useful I would really find it for my lifestyle. I've never been a 'health-nut' type person, usually eating more junk than produce, and sitting more than moving. The countless times I've tried to be healthier, I've always inevitably become sick and regressed. I've tried countless standard "diets" like low carb and paleo, only to gain more and more weight after I inevitably 'fail'. After going back to My Gene Food's page numerous times over the course of a few days, I finally decided to give them a try and submitted my 23&me data for a nutrition plan. I have to say, it's one of the best decisions I've made recently! The report is very easy to read, and provided excellent explanation of WHY I react to some things differently than others. There's no major gimmick of 'count X carbs' or 'buy our book' or 'take this weird supplement you've never heard of'. It's plain, simple and tailored to my odd little genetic compilation. Some of the topics I had never really thought of before (for example - my caffeine consumption and reaction), and some I had never been able to make a decision on (should I quit dairy? gluten? meat?) I've made some small changes over the time since I received my report and it's made more difference than all of the previous 'diets' I've tried combined. Usually a diet like low-carb or paleo, etc, leaves me feeling tired and inevitably sick - and now I understand why. It's not that I'm destined to be unhealthy, and it's not that those diets are 'bad' - they just weren't right for me. :) If you're on the fence and have always felt a bit "lost" when it came to health - I highly recommend trying My Gene Food's nutrition plan. Additionally, when I did reach out to their customer support, they were quick to respond and extremely helpful. I 100% recommend My Gene Food to anyone who feels overwhelmed by "dieting" or living a healthy lifestyle.
