<p>A method of determining genetic predisposition for deficiency in a specific health function of a person using single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) analysis is provided. The method includes performing a SNP genotyping assay of three or more genes using a sample obtained from the person, obtaining a SNP panel which includes predetermined identifier SNPs, comparing the SNP panel with a predetermined criterion defining the genetic predisposition for deficiency in a specific health function; and reporting presence of genetic predisposition for deficiency in this health function if the SNP panel meets the predetermined criterion. The health function includes glycation, inflammation, DNA methylation, oxidation or DNA repair.</p> |
