No. The Nutrition profile is not a diagnostic test. However, the Nutrition profile is a tool for finding out whether you are genetically predisposed to developing lactose intolerance or an immune response to gluten.

Unfortunately, we cannot make recommendations about nutrients that are not currently on the list. If a nutrient is not on the list, it means that the current scientific evidence is insufficient to predict response and make recommendations. Nonetheless, you might be able to discuss nutrients that are not in the profile during your consultation with the nutritionist, a service included in this Profile.
