MOST of us can give ourselves a pat on the back after losing a few pounds in the New Year. But let’s face it, it’s easier to shift the weight temporarily than keep it off as the year goes on.
Even if you’ve found a diet you’re happy with it can be hard to stick to.
The myDNA test, available at LloydsPharmacy can help unlock the secret to successful weight management.
Using a simple cheek swab and genetic testing, it gives you a personalised diet plan which explains how your genes influence your weight.After you’ve sent off your test, you’ll receive a recommended nutritional breakdown, a number of macro-nutrient servings per day, a recommended food guide and sample menus.
It means for £59, you’ll get tailored, lifetime relevant diet advice. Your body may be more suited to Mediterraneaninspired meals, or a proteinpacked diet might work best for you – but finding the key may help you lose weight and keep it off.
