We provide you with two options to discover your best weight loss diet, called your “Diet.” The first option is through your genetics. We consider this the gold standard to personalized weight loss because nothing is more personalized that your own DNA. To find your Genetic Diet, our proprietary algorithm analyzes five key genes from the raw DNA data file you provide us. (Your DNA data file is available to you for free if you’ve done any of the genetic services offered by 23andMe, Ancestry.com or MyHeritage). Based on the results, we assign you the Diet predicted to be your most effective weight loss. Results are available within 2 business days and have a one-time fee of $39.99.
The second option is available to you if you do not have a DNA data file because you have not done a third-party genetic service such as 23andMe, Ancestry.com or MyHeritage. Or maybe you are just not ready to share your DNA data file with us, buy you still want a science-backed way to find a personalized diet that is predicted to work well for you. For this option, we use an adapted, research-based, validated diet behavior questionnaire to determine which diet you’re most likely to stick to; sticking to a diet is the number one behavioral determinant of weight loss success. In other words, you’re most likely to get to your weight loss goals if you actually stick to your weight loss diet. Using a research-based method, we help you find yours. We call this the Style Diet. Results are available within 10 minutes.
Yes. To find your Genetic Diet, you will first need to upload your DNA data file onto your secure app membership account. To find your Style Diet, you can take the research-based diet behavior questionnaire available to you on the app. Your results of these two Diets may or may not be the same; one is based on determining which diet is best for your based on your genetics while the other is based on your dietary behaviors. Between the two, the Genetic Diet is considered superior because it is the most customized to your body and “hacks” into your genetic programming so you really understand which foods and diet will lead you to your most effective weight loss. It also has more research behind it. With that said, the Style Diet is a great way to get a science-based, personalized diet plan because it determines which diet you’re most likely to stick to during your journey.
Our recommendation is to find out your Genetic Diet if you have your DNA data file; if you don’t have the file, go ahead and start with the eating style questionnaire to determine you Style Diet and see how it works (we think you’ll be happy with the progress). In the meantime, you can do either 23andMe, Ancestry.com or MyHeritage. When they send you your report, you also have access to your DNA data file and you can then decide if you want to know your Genetic Diet. Yes, it’s that easy.
If you don’t have a DNA data file (because you did not do 23andMe, Ancestry.com or MyHeritage) or chose not to upload your DNA data file onto you secure app account, no problem. You can still get a science-driven, personalized diet plan, aka your Style Diet, by completing a 10-minute, research-based diet behavior questionnaire. The results of your questionnaire predict which weight loss diet you are most likely to stick to so you can actually stay on a diet long enough for effective weight loss. This option is free in your app membership.
Nothing is more personal and private than genetic information. We believe that genomic privacy is an inherent human right which is why we do not share your genetic information with anyone, ever. In addition, DietCypher does not sequence or analyze your entire genome, but instead, analyzes variations in key genes using your own DNA data. Once you upload your DNA data file onto our secure site, it is temporarily stored on one of our US-based servers. We use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to ensure all of your data, genetic and otherwise, are encrypted and secured. Once we perform the genetic analysis using our proprietary algorithm, we assign you a Genetic Diet and permanently delete your DNA file.
No commitments required and your first month is on us!
