To provide insights into how one’s genes influence the body’s reaction to caffeine

Xcode Life, personal genomics companies has announced the launch of its new “Genes and Caffeine” test. This test has been designed keeping in mind that each person’s relationship with coffee is unique. It’s a deep dive into the world of caffeine beyond the usual “one-size-fits-all” advice, providing insights into how one’s genes influence one’s bodily reaction to caffeine.

Xcode Life offers comprehensive gene nutrition test covering nearly 50 aspects of nutrition. As part of its focus on Nutrigenomics, Xcode studies how food interacts with and affects gene expression and health and how one’s genes affect the way one’s body responds to food. The “Genes and Caffeine” report is the latest addition to Xcode Life’s portfolio of Nutrigenomic assessments.

The Genes and Caffeine Report analyses a person’s genetic predispositions towards caffeine sensitivity, metabolism speed, and the likelihood of experiencing various health effects such as insomnia, anxiety, and hypertension. It also studies how caffeine influences a person’s physical performance and appetite. It’s a revelation for anyone who has ever wondered why they can’t sleep after a late coffee or feel more jittery than energised after a cup.

The report comes with personalised recommendations based on one’s unique DNA, which they can use to adjust their caffeine intake to improve sleep, manage anxiety, and enhance performance. This test will be an essential tool for anyone looking to make informed decisions about their diet and lifestyle.

Speaking on the launch, R Narayanan, CEO, Xcode Life, said, “In a nation where coffee is a staple for over half the population, Xcode Life’s Genes and Caffeine Report emerges as a pioneer, offering not just insights but a roadmap to better health tailored specifically to an individual’s genetic makeup. Our report transforms our clients’ understanding of how a simple daily habit like coffee consumption can be optimised for their health based on the intricate details of their DNA. We believe this report is an investment in one’s health, providing one with the knowledge to make choices that align with the body’s genetic predispositions.”

 The test requires a preliminary DNA test. The DNA test is priced at Rs 7,500 while the Genes and Caffeine test is priced at Rs 1,599.
