Helixir Genomics
Understand your DNA, and what it means for you.
We analyse your DNA alongside your health questionnaire and any blood tests you share. Your report explains the results, their limits and the next steps to consider. A scientist reviews the analysis before you receive it.
- bases in your genome
- 3,000,000,000
- whole-genome sequencing targets average 30× coverage; some regions remain unresolved
- positions typed by a DNA array
- 680,000
- the best-studied ones, measured directly, plus millions more inferred and labelled as inferred
- genes screened for inheritance
- 3,572
- included in the whole-genome carrier analysis, with coverage limits reported
- areas included in either option
- 8
- health, inheritance, medicines, fitness, nutrition, supplements, ancestry and longevity
Your Precision Longevity Analysis
Every area, included.
Both test options include all eight areas. The findings depend on what your test can measure and the health information you provide. We explain relevant results and their limitations. Couples can also explore inheritance together. See what each area covers in full.
- 01
Long-term health
Genetic predispositions related to heart health, metabolism and other conditions. Each finding explains the evidence, its limits and any follow-up to discuss with your doctor.
What this area covers - 02
Inheritance
What you carry without knowing, and what a child of yours could inherit. With whole-genome sequencing we screen 3,572 genes and tell you, gene by gene, how confident the answer is.
What this area covers - 03
Pharmacogenomics
Genetic findings that may affect your response to certain medicines. Includes a wallet-sized summary to share with your prescriber.
What this area covers - 04
Fitness & performance
Genetic findings related to exercise and recovery, considered alongside your training history and any injuries you report.
What this area covers - 05
Nutrition, food, drink, sensitivities
Findings related to caffeine, alcohol, lactose and other dietary factors. We explain what DNA can suggest and which questions need symptoms or blood tests to answer.
What this area covers - 06
Personal supplementation plan
Supplement suggestions considered alongside your diet, blood tests and current medicines. Each recommendation explains its purpose and any limits in the evidence.
What this area covers - 07
Ancestry & deep lineages
Estimates of your genetic ancestry, plus maternal lineage and paternal lineage when Y-chromosome data is available. We also consider ancestry when interpreting genetic scores.
What this area covers - 08
Longevity screener
Estimates for selected health conditions, adjusted for age and ancestry where the model supports it. We explain how to interpret each estimate.
What this area covers
What you receive
Your results, explained clearly.
You receive a summary of your main findings, explanations of the results and suggested next steps. The analysis includes a printed report and a private digital edition.
Area 01
Long-term health.
Genetic predispositions, explained with their limits.
Each finding explains the result, what it can tell you and any follow-up to discuss with your doctor.
Illustrative example
Example · cholesterol
A higher genetic score for LDL cholesterol
This example shows a genetic predisposition to higher LDL cholesterol. It does not tell you your current cholesterol level. A blood test measures that. Discuss your measured results and family history with your physician before deciding on any follow-up.
This is an illustration, not an individual result or a medication recommendation.
Who it is for
For people who feel well and intend to stay that way.
For adults who want to understand their DNA results and discuss relevant findings with their physician. The analysis explains genetic predispositions and their limits. It does not diagnose symptoms or replace medical care.
How yours is made
A scientist goes through every result.
Software processes the data and prepares the initial results. A precision medicine analyst checks relevant findings against your DNA data, the research and the health information you provide.
The report explains your main findings, what they mean and any follow-up to discuss with your doctor. Learn why a scientist examines everything, and how your analysis is made, step by step.

Confirmed in your own DNA
Two test options
One genome, two ways to look at it.
What you choose is how much of your DNA we look at. Both depths cover the same eight areas, at one flat price each, and the same scientist examines your results either way.
Only the whole genome reaches the rare variants an array cannot see, along with fuller drug-response detail.
One genome, start to end
Chosen positions, and the gaps between them. The hollow marks are rare variants the array has no probe for.
On your data
Your genome is yours. Never sold, never shared for advertising or research, never used to train anything. Encrypted at rest, encrypted in motion, and removed on request.
Begin
Find out what your analysis includes.
Complete a questionnaire in about ten minutes. Choose a DNA array for $850 or whole-genome sequencing for $2,950, with all eight areas included. You can pay when ready or ask to speak with the analyst first. Kits currently ship within the United States.
Your analysis is not a diagnostic test. It is informational and educational, written to be read, considered, and brought to a physician where it matters.
