Most people work hard to take care of their health — eating right, exercising, trying supplements — yet still struggle with fatigue, stubborn weight, poor sleep, or low energy. One-size-fits-all solutions often fail because your biology is unique.

At Thrive, we believe your health plan should be as individual as your DNA. Genetic testing lets us read your body’s blueprint so you can make smarter, more personalized choices for diet, supplements, and long-term wellness.

“Personalized care isn’t a luxury—it’s the most effective way to feel like yourself again. Your DNA provides the blueprint; our job is to read it and act.”
— Kristine Kjolhede, MSN, FNP-C


Why Genetic Testing Matters

Two people can eat the same diet or follow the same exercise plan and see very different results. Genetics play a major role in how your body metabolizes nutrients, manages inflammation, and processes food. Without this insight, even the best efforts may feel like trial and error.

Genetic testing uncovers these differences, giving you actionable insights to improve your health, energy, and overall well-being.

Nutrigenomics: How Your Genes and Nutrition Interact

Nutrigenomics is the study of how your genes and nutrition influence each other. Genetic variations can affect how you absorb vitamins, metabolize macronutrients, or detoxify, while the foods you eat can influence gene expression.

By understanding these interactions, genetic testing helps you:

  • Personalize your diet for better results

  • Target supplementation to what your body truly needs

  • Take proactive steps to prevent nutrient-related health concerns


Broader Benefits of Genetic Testing

Genetic testing can also provide insights beyond nutrition, including:

  • Disease predispositions and inherited conditions

  • Cancer risk markers (e.g., BRCA mutations)

  • Medication response (pharmacogenetics)

  • Carrier status for hereditary conditions

  • Family planning and prenatal considerations


Who Can Benefit

Anyone can benefit from genetic testing, but it’s especially helpful if you:

  • Eat well but still struggle with fatigue, weight, or inflammation

  • Take supplements but aren’t sure if they’re effective

  • Want to prevent future health issues

  • Struggle with sleep, low energy, or recovery from exercise
