Gene Food Reviews

Good Place for food

Eating here was one of the best decision I did, the food so healthy & the hygiene maintained is absolutely amazing

This is good it is the best of all

Nice project. Taking care of our health has always been a thing.

Gene food is a fantastic tool for anyone who cares about their long term health. If you want to live and long and healthy life gene foods data is crucial. That said, I think the diet guide could use some work. It’s helpful but in my opinion unrealistic for most people to keep up with. It is monotonous and recommends CPG’s which are unappealing. Bottom line: great site. Crucial data that is incredibly accurate, only drawback is the nutrition plan which can be easily updated.

It makes complete sense to eat according to what our genes need. Thank goodness this team created such a brilliant business based on smart nutrition guided by the science of our unique genes. I was quite surprised by my nutrition recommendations as I've been on a low carb higher fat diet for many years and feel fine. Some issues they presented, I already knew about and had already adjusted my diet to suit. But now I know I had better check my cholesterol levels and decide whether I need more adjustments. My goal is to be hale and hearty for many years to come so now's the time to make those changes. I respect the science and the system MyGeneFood has developed. The material is prepared for someone who knows very little about genetics and nutrition as well as someone who has self-studied. Great value for the time invested. Well done, worth the investment.

Once I went back to carbs (based on the Okinawa diet) and quit the whole 30/paleo diet as well as any attempts at Keto or low-carb, my weight stopped rising, and actually started to go down (and I didn't even follow the Okinawa diet very strictly, and did no caloric restriction)! This is with a metabolic resistant condition that makes any kind of weight loss or sustainability nearly impossible; per my doctor. I also love the foods listed in Okinawa diet. So it's not a restrictive diet in any sense for me. I feel like I'm eating what I've always wanted to eat anyway. Plus, I do add in whatever else I might want, while still seeing benefits of eating this way.

I made a mistake in making my order and used the contact form and had a response and solution next day. I then had a further technical issue accessing a paid report online via my account - I used the contact form again and got a next day solution. The team were EXTREMELY easy to work with - often when you have a problem you just want it promptly acknowledged and resolved - they did just that! All companies have issues from time to time but it is how they resolve them that counts.

I am super impressed with Gene Food! Their customer service is amazing. I had an issue with my upload and they gave me a refund and made it very easy to get my issue resolved. The next try I got the report within the promised 5 mins of uploading. The report was super detailed with tons of great and really helpful information. I love how much information they give you to support their research and how they come to the conclusions they do. There is more than enough proof to support the results rather than some hand wavey smoke and mirrors information that I've gotten from other DNA services. I highly recommend this service if you care about your health and longevity!

Fabulous— such incredible information and a great company. I forgot to enter in the discount code and they refunded me. I’ve already sent my mom and boyfriend to get their gene-specific nutrition plans.

The service was very helpful and thorough in ironing out some initial problems with the 23andme data uploaded. Staff responded quickly and kept me informed of their progress. When I experienced some problems logging into the website, customer service again was quick to resolve the problem. In addition, I was able to update to version 2 of the report which changed my diet recommendation name from one to another but retained the bulk of the original data from the 23andme upload while adding some new information. The report and recommendations themselves were very useful, confirming some observations of my own and agreeing with some of the results from a biome sequencing result with resulting dietary recommendations. All in all, a very satisfactory experience. Highly recommended.

I had a good experience with Gene Food. Lost a few pounds with the 2 week meal plan on the wayoan diet and appreciate their honesty. They delete raw genetics immediately after it gets added to the site which is not normal with DNA upload sites.

The kit arrived immediately and it took just 10 days to get the results.

Acquiring a custom nutrition plan from Gene Food was the single best health decision of my adult life. I came upon Gene Food quite by accident. I was doing a Google search for Histamine Intolerance and came upon John O'Connor's blog post entitled "Don't Fear The Frig" something I had been doing for awhile. For 10 years I had been following the food and lifestyle protocols of Myers; Wentz; Ballantyne; and Axe to help me with my thyroid disease. The result being a cascade of food related health problems that left me very ill. After reading John's blog post, sending Gene Food my DNA sample and acquiring a custom nutrition plan-which happens in minutes-no waiting required-I learned that I had been eating all the wrong food. I now have clarity of the food I am to be eating. I frequent the Gene Food blog & the Gene Food podcast. John O'Connor and Dr. Aaron Gardner are focused on providing individuals with the very best science based information today. I believe their individualized approach, not the "one size fits all" seen frequently, is the future of optimizing health and wellness.

I’ve learned a lot through this service and realized the diet I was following was not in alignment with my genetic profile. I’m trying out this new diet now and hope it will have positive impacts on my blood markers! They have been very responsive to my questions while I attempt to understand this new approach and very patient with all my questions.

I have been impressed with the quality of information at this site. I finally know what I should eat, based on my own genes, not from what some diet guru believes. There's all kinds of information about diet, genes, lab draws, latest studies in nutrition and much more. They're obviously personally invested in the science. They have been responsive to my questions and very helpful. I have gotten a GeneFood diet report for myself my husband, and plan to get one for my sons. At last, I have a much better idea what is the right 'fuel' for my body.

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.

Exactly what I wanted: a diet template based on my genetic data. I've tried several other companies, including insidertracker and DNAfit; if your primary concern is diet then I would absolutely recommend Gene Food as the best of the bunch. The report you get is nuanced, readable and actionable. And their customer service is great!

My husband has Early Onset Alzheimer's Disease. I had been told by my husband's neurologist to let him eat whatever he wanted because, in the end, it didn't matter. Friends and family members were recommending that he should be eating "this" diet or "that" diet. The many voices were so conflicting and confusing. All I wanted to do was whatever would be best for him, so I began my research. That research began 3 years ago and then recently, I found "My Gene Food" and it has been life-changing. Finally, a gene-specific recommendation of my husband's personal-best nutrition plan for both macro and micronutrients. This has been a game-changer for us. My husband feels better and is more clear-minded and less tired during the day. And those many voices telling me that we should be doing "this" or "that" do not influence me like they used to because, now I know what is best, and why. Also, a side note, I have had nothing but good interactions with the company. I called with a question and John O'Connor promptly picked up my call. He patiently took time with me and even included Dr. Aaron Gardner, their geneticist and involved their team right there on the spot. Thank you "My Gene Food" you have changed our lives for the better!
