What is the Best Diet?

The truth is, the best nutrition plan is the one that fits your body's unique needs.. What works well for one person, might not be the best fit for someone else. There is no one size-fits-all diet.

Your body’s response to food depends on many factors: lifestyle, environment, and most importantly—your genes. Certain genetic variations can influence:

▪ How efficiently you burn carbohydrates or fats for energy

▪ Your tendency to store fat or struggle with weight loss

▪ How your body handles blood sugar after meals

▪ Sensitivities to gluten, lactose, or caffeine

▪ How well you absorb key nutrients like vitamin D, B vitamins, or omega-3s

This explains why your friend might thrive on a low-carb diet while you feel sluggish, or why someone else feels energized on plant-based meals while you struggle to stay full.

Instead of doing a trial and error of trendy diets, consider getting your DNA tested. At Tennessee Back Pain Center, we offer genetic testing. This is a one-time test based on a cheek swab that can give us insight to your specific nutrigenomics, or your specific genes. This can provide information about

▪ Food Sensitivities

▪ Fitness tips for your genes

▪ Vitamin and supplement suggestions

▪ Hormone tendencies

▪ Risk of developing certain disease

▪ Existing health conditions

▪ And More!

Interested in learning more about genetic testing? Talk with Dr. Logan or Dr. Teresa at your next appointment or give us a call at (615)-900-5187. This is a powerful tool to help transform your lifestyle.
