Abstract: The invention relates to methods for identifying whether an individual has predominantly a power or endurance profile. In particular, it relates to methods for identifying a predisposition to an ability to respond well to high intensity or low-intensity resistance training by identifying the allele present at the locus of one or more of genetic polymorphisms.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods and tests that allow for the establishment of personalized weight-management programs for an individual based upon the individual's genotype in the glutathione S-transferase pi gene and/or the interleukin-6 gene. Methods are disclosed for determining the individual's genotype, which may be used to select an appropriate therapeutic/dietary program or lifestyle recommendation. Such a personalized weight-management program will have obvious benefits (e.g., yield better results in terms of weight loss and weight maintenance) over traditional weight-management programs that do not take into account genetic information.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a computer assisted method of providing a personalized assessment of supplement requirements for a human subject in which an individual's genotype is analysed for the presence of alleles at one or more genetic loci which may be associated with risk factors, and the alleles present compared to a first dataset comprising information correlating the presence of individual alleles at genetic loci with a lifestyle risk factor to provide a risk factor associated with the presence of particular alleles in order to generate a personalized assessment of nutritional and therapeutic supplement requirements, which may include a personalized supplementation formula.
