One screen, one living compass
This is a working replica of the dashboard I build — the distillation of all ten reports into something you'd check the way you check the weather. Click around: the tabs, search box, filters and checklist are all live.
Salt sensitivity
ADD1 · rs4961Blood pressure responds to sodium more than average. The salt shaker matters more for Alex than for most people.
Caffeine clearance
CYP1A2 · rs762551Slow metabolizer — an afternoon espresso is still on board at midnight. Morning coffee, gladly; late coffee, regretfully.
Vitamin D transport
GC · rs2282679Carrier protein runs low — blood levels sag without regular sun or a supplement, especially in winter.
Muscle fiber bias
ACTN3 · rs1815739One working "sprint" copy — a genuine hybrid. Responds well to both strength work and endurance training.
Stress style
COMT · rs4680The "worrier" variant: dopamine lingers. Superb deep focus — but stress also takes longer to drain away.
Omega-3 conversion
FADS1 · rs174537Weak converter of plant omega-3s. Flax and chia are lovely, but EPA/DHA needs to arrive pre-formed — fish, in short.
Caffeine clearance
CYP1A2 · rs762551One slow copy of the liver's caffeine enzyme. Half-life stretches toward 8 hours — a noon cutoff protects sleep.
Lactose tolerance
MCM6 · rs4988235Lactase keeps running in adulthood. Dairy is genuinely fine — enjoy the cheese board without suspicion.
Vitamin D transport
GC · rs2282679Less of the protein that ferries vitamin D through blood. Winter levels need outside help to stay in range.
Omega-3 conversion
FADS1 · rs174537The plant-to-marine conversion pathway runs at a trickle. Two fish meals a week beats a field of flax.
Salt sensitivity
ADD1 · rs4961Sodium moves Alex's blood pressure more than most people's. Cooking at home is the quiet superpower here.
Choline synthesis
PEMT · rs7946Makes less choline in-house, so diet has to deliver it. Eggs, in this house, earn their keep.
Stress style
COMT · rs4680Met/Met — dopamine clears slowly. The gift is focus and detail; the tax is rumination. Recovery rituals matter.
Mood & movement
BDNF · rs6265One Met allele slightly lowers baseline BDNF — and makes exercise an outsized mood investment. Walks are medicine here.
Chronotype lean
CLOCK · rs1801260A mild evening tendency. Mornings are negotiable; the trick is not letting "evening person" become "no sleep person."
Muscle fiber bias
ACTN3 · rs1815739The hybrid genotype — one sprint copy, one endurance lean. Lifts and long walks both pay dividends.
Deep-sleep pressure
ADA · rs73598374Typical adenosine clearance — deep sleep arrives on schedule, provided caffeine respects the noon rule above.
Tendon resilience
COL5A1 · rs12722Average collagen profile. No special fragility — but warm-ups remain non-negotiable, because physics is undefeated.
The gene table
Every call in the dashboard traces back to a row like these. Search a gene, a marker, or a word — or filter by theme.
| Gene | Marker | Genotype | In plain English | Priority |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CYP1A2 | rs762551 | AC | Slow caffeine metabolizer — afternoon espresso lingers into bedtime. | Act |
| MCM6 | rs4988235 | AG | Lactase persistent — dairy is genuinely fine. | Good |
| GC | rs2282679 | GT | Lower vitamin D transport — runs low without sun or supplement. | Act |
| FADS1 | rs174537 | TT | Weak plant-omega-3 converter — fish beats flax. | Act |
| ADD1 | rs4961 | GT | Salt-sensitive blood pressure — sodium is a real lever. | High |
| PEMT | rs7946 | TT | Lower built-in choline production — eggs earn their keep. | Act |
| COMT | rs4680 | AA | "Worrier" variant — brilliant focus, slower stress offload. | Info |
| BDNF | rs6265 | CT | Exercise pays an outsized mood dividend. | Act |
| CLOCK | rs1801260 | TC | Mild evening chronotype — mornings are negotiable. | Info |
| ACTN3 | rs1815739 | CT | Hybrid muscle profile — strength and endurance both land. | Good |
| ADA | rs73598374 | GG | Typical deep-sleep pressure — protect it from late caffeine. | Info |
| COL5A1 | rs12722 | CT | Average tendon stiffness — warm-ups still non-negotiable. | Info |
| NQO1 | rs1800566 | CT | One reduced copy of a key antioxidant recycler. | Act |
| GSTM1 | copy number | del/del | Common missing-gene variant — cruciferous veg pulls extra weight. | Act |
| SOD2 | rs4880 | AG | Balanced mitochondrial antioxidant enzyme. | Good |
| ALDH2 | rs671 | GG | Normal aldehyde clearance — no alcohol flush response. | Good |
Alex's daily protocol
Hundreds of pages of analysis, reduced to ten things that fit on a sticky note. Tap them — this is how a real day with the protocol feels. (Resets when you leave; it's just a demo.)
Every card traces back to a report
The dashboard is the summary. The ten-report "biology user manual" is the evidence — and it's a surprisingly good read.
