About

Advancing human health through genetics

We identify the metabolic constraints people inherit, and the nutritional approaches that address them.

Mission

To enable people to take action on DNA-driven health concerns through genetic testing and precision nutrition.
Vision

To transform the use of genetic testing to identify health conditions within sub-populations that can be prevented or treated through nutritional therapy.
Promise

Continued research into the metabolic challenges people face across disease categories, and the guidance required to address them.

Founder

Dr. Steven Zeisel

Dr. Zeisel's research at UNC Chapel Hill established the groundwork: that choline is an essential nutrient, that individual requirements vary by several-fold, and that the variation is largely genetic. SNP Therapeutics began where that work left off, developing the models and algorithms that translate those findings into individualized nutritional guidance.
