Start with the comprehensive DNA Methylation Test

The DNA Methylation Test is the site’s primary product for broad methylation-related genetic context. The other products below address narrower questions and should be treated as optional add-ons rather than replacements for the comprehensive report.

At-Home Collection Use the supplied oral swab without a standard clinic appointment.
9,000+ Locations Broad inherited analysis that includes MTHFR, COMT, MTR and more.
About 10 Lab Days Estimated after an acceptable sample reaches the laboratory.
Province-Wide Access Kits are available for eligible addresses in major BC cities, smaller communities and many regional areas.
What the Test Analyzes

A broad look at inherited methylation-related variants

The DNA Methylation Test reviews inherited genetic variants rather than directly measuring how your genes are functioning today. It is broader than a basic single-gene MTHFR test and organizes selected findings into methylation-related pathways and wellness topics.

The report may provide genetic context connected with folate and methionine processing, nutrient-related pathways, energy, stress response, inflammation, digestion, DNA protection, detoxification-related pathways, fitness and recovery. Genetics is only one part of a larger health picture, so findings should be considered alongside medical history, lifestyle, medications and appropriate clinical testing.

Nutrient processing
Energy-related pathways
Stress-response context
Inflammation-related context
Digestion-related pathways
Fitness and recovery context
MTHFR Provides inherited genetic context related to folate-processing pathways. It does not measure your present folate or vitamin B12 level.
COMT Provides selected pathway context related to the processing of certain compounds. It does not diagnose a mood, hormonal or neurological condition.
MTR Provides genetic context connected with the methionine cycle and vitamin B12-related metabolism. It does not measure current homocysteine.
9,000+ The report examines more than 9,000 inherited genetic locations and organizes selected findings into gene, pathway and wellness-oriented sections.
Clear Test Scope

What the report can—and cannot—tell you

Clear limits help customers interpret inherited genetic information responsibly and avoid treating a wellness report as a diagnosis or current laboratory measurement.

The report can provide

  • Information about inherited variants included in the analysis.
  • Context for the folate cycle, methionine cycle and related pathways.
  • A broader genetic overview than a basic single-gene MTHFR test.
  • Wellness-oriented information that can support questions for a qualified healthcare professional.

The report does not provide

  • A diagnosis, disease screening result or explanation for fatigue, anxiety, fertility concerns or another symptom.
  • A direct measurement of current methylation activity, gene expression, folate, B12, homocysteine, hormones or nutrient levels.
  • A biological-age estimate; that is a separate product using a different method.
  • A prescription or a reason to change medication, supplements, diet or treatment without professional guidance.

Province-Wide Coverage

Available from the Lower Mainland to Vancouver Island, the Interior and Northern BC

At-home kits can be ordered for eligible addresses in Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, New Westminster, the North Shore, the Tri-Cities, Surrey, Delta, Langley, Abbotsford, Chilliwack and other Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley communities.

The same home-collection process may also be available in Victoria, Nanaimo and other Vancouver Island communities; Kelowna, Vernon, Penticton and the wider Okanagan; Kamloops and the Thompson region; communities in the Kootenays and Cariboo; and northern centres such as Prince George, Terrace, Kitimat and Fort St. John. Delivery and return options can differ for rural, remote, ferry-dependent and coastal addresses, so current checkout and kit instructions should be reviewed before mailing a sample.

Home collection can reduce the need for a routine sample appointment when travel involves bridges, ferries, mountain highways or longer regional distances. Location affects delivery and return logistics only; it does not change the inherited genetic locations analyzed or prove that climate, wildfire smoke, air quality or another local exposure is affecting a person’s health.

British Columbia Test Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can I order a DNA methylation test from anywhere in British Columbia?

At-home kits can be ordered for many eligible Canadian addresses across British Columbia. Exact delivery options, charges and estimated transit times depend on the address and the services available when the order is placed, particularly for rural, remote, coastal or ferry-dependent destinations.

Do I need to visit a BC clinic or laboratory?

No standard clinic visit is normally required for sample collection. The comprehensive DNA Methylation Test uses an oral-swab sample collected at home according to the instructions supplied with the kit.

Is the DNA Methylation Test covered by BC Medical Services Plan?

This direct-to-consumer wellness test should be treated as a private purchase and should not be assumed to be covered by the Medical Services Plan, private insurance, workplace benefits or a Health Spending Account. Confirm eligibility directly with the applicable insurer or plan administrator before ordering.

Does the comprehensive test include MTHFR?

Yes. The comprehensive analysis includes MTHFR as well as COMT, MTR and many other inherited genetic locations associated with methylation-related pathways. It is broader than a basic single-gene or limited-variant MTHFR test.

Does the test measure current methylation activity or nutrient levels?

No. It examines inherited genetic variants related to selected pathways. It does not directly measure current methylation activity, gene expression, folate, vitamin B12, homocysteine, hormones, vitamins, minerals, pollutants or other present laboratory values.

Can the report diagnose fatigue, anxiety, fertility concerns or a deficiency?

No. The report provides inherited genetic information and wellness-oriented pathway context. It cannot diagnose the cause of a symptom, mental-health condition, fertility concern, nutrient deficiency or another medical condition.

Is this the same as the Biological Age Test?

No. The DNA Methylation Test focuses on inherited genetic variants associated with selected methylation and nutrient-processing pathways. The Biological Age Test is a separate product that evaluates selected age-related DNA methylation patterns to generate an estimate.

How long does laboratory processing take?

Laboratory processing is estimated at approximately 10 days after an acceptable sample reaches the laboratory. Kit delivery within British Columbia, sample collection, return transit, sample acceptance and laboratory workload are separate parts of the complete timeline.

Is prepaid return shipping included for BC orders?

Do not assume that prepaid return shipping is included. Return-postage arrangements depend on the product and shipping service selected. Follow the current instructions supplied with the kit and review the shipping and return policy before mailing the sample.

Can I share the completed report with a BC healthcare professional?

Yes. The electronic report can be downloaded and shared with a qualified healthcare professional who can consider the findings alongside your medical history, symptoms, medications and appropriate clinical laboratory results.
