Functional DNA Testing · Detoxhouse
Stop Guessing. Decode Your Genetic Blueprint.
Your body is biochemically unique so why rely on generic health advice, trend diets, or trial-and-error supplements?
Through our exclusive partnership with Dr. Brigitte Spurgeon (Doctor of Orthomolecular Nutrigenomics and founder of Vitacode), Detoxhouse brings you state of the art functional DNA testing. In a single, once in a lifetime test, you will reveal your precise biological roadmap giving you clear, root cause answers written directly in your DNA.
Understand Your Genetic Risks. Take Control of Your Health.
Have you completed the standard blood work, followed the strict protocols, and tried the diets everyone swears by only to ask why your body still isn’t responding?
That question is where root cause biology picks up. Your DNA reveals how your body actually processes nutrients, manages methylation, handles inflammation, detoxifies, and responds to stress. We translate your raw genetic data into a targeted strategy so you can finally see what’s happening at the cellular level and know exactly what supplements and lifestyle changes to adopt and which ones to avoid.
5 Ways DNA Testing Transforms Your Health
1. Eliminate Health Guesswork
Uncover your unique biological blueprint to pinpoint the exact nutrition, lifestyle choices, and targeted supplements your body thrives on and precisely which ones you should avoid.
2. Identify Root-Cause Vulnerabilities
Look deep into your cellular health, methylation, detox capabilities, and inflammatory pathways to reveal why standard blood work and generic protocols haven’t given you full answers.
3. Optimize Hormones, Gut & Mood
Discover how your genes influence hormone metabolism, neurotransmitters, and gut barrier integrity so you can resolve persistent fatigue, brain fog, and stubborn weight.
4. Proactive Lifelong Prevention
Pinpoint your inherent genetic predispositions across millions of variants, empowering you to take targeted, preventive action long before symptoms develop into chronic conditions.
5. One Test, A Lifetime of Value
Because your DNA sequence never changes, a single test provides a foundational, dynamic health roadmap that guides your wellness choices for the rest of your life.
Working with Dr. Brigitte Spurgeon has been an absolute game-changer. Even with her background in Microbiology and Immunology and world-class expertise in functional genomics, she speaks in plain, practical language without any confusing medical jargon. She is so warm, approachable, and easy to communicate with. When I reviewed my own DNA results with Dr. Brigitte, I was amazed at what I uncovered about my biochemistry. In fact, I was shocked to discover that certain supplements I was taking were actually counterproductive for my biology and that I needed to avoid them! Having this level of clarity is priceless, and I cannot wait for my clients to discover their own results.

Book In-Clinic Sample Collection – send me an email to arrange time for your saliva collection – [email protected]
Order Instruction: After you place your order, I will personally contact you for a brief 10–15 minute phone call. During this call, I will walk you through how to collect your DNA sample properly and how to return it to me. If you are local and prefer to pick up your kit in person, we will use this call to schedule a convenient time for you to visit the clinic and collect your sample.
When choosing a DNA test, it is important to know that not all genetic testing is created equal.
Many traditional tests available in Australia, use narrow, targeted panels that look at around 160 to 500 isolated genetic markers SNP’s. While this sounds like a lot, looking at single genes in isolation is like trying to understand a whole book by reading just a few scattered words. It gives a limited view and can miss compensating genes that balance your physiology.
I partner with SelfDecode, a state-of-the-art global platform that uses advanced AI to analyze millions genetic variants. Instead of evaluating genes in isolation, SelfDecode uses Polygenic Risk Scoring looking at thousands of genes working together to give us an extraordinarily accurate picture of your unique health blueprint.
Why this matters for your health journey:
Complete Health Coverage:
One test covers your gut, mood, hormones, cardiovascular health, detox pathways, and immunity. No need to buy separate, expensive single-category tests.
A Dynamic Blueprint:
Your genetic portal updates automatically as new scientific discoveries are made, giving you lifelong value from a single test.
World-Class Expert Interpretation:
Having accurate data is only half the battle; knowing what to do with it is what matters most. Your results are paired with custom reporting and clinical translation by Brigitte Spurgeon, an internationally recognized world-class expert in functional genomics.
Instead of generic advice, you get a highly tailored, targeted protocol built specifically around your unique biochemistry.
Frequently Asked Questions
Collection is quick, painless, and simple. We can perform a gentle cheek swab together during your in-clinic visit at Detoxhouse, or we can post a kit directly to your home with a pre-addressed return envelope.
Yes! Your DNA test measures your fixed human genetic blueprint of how your body is naturally wired to manage inflammation, process nutrients, and build gut tissue. A stool test measures the living bacteria currently in your digestive tract, which changes over time. Your DNA test is completed once in your lifetime.
Once your sample reaches the laboratory, sequencing takes approximately 2 to 4 weeks. As soon as your digitized data is ready, it is sent directly to Dr. Brigitte Spurgeon to craft your personalized clinical translation.
If you already have raw DNA data from another provider, you can still get the comprehensive report from dr Brigitte. Feel free to send me an email and I can organise it for you [email protected]
Traditional genetic tests look at single genes in isolation (like MTHFR or APOE), which only gives you a tiny fraction of the picture. Most health traits and risks are influenced by thousands of genes working together. SelfDecode uses advanced AI algorithms to analyze over 83 million genetic variants simultaneously, calculating your true overall biological risk score rather than making assumptions based on one isolated gene.
Your core DNA sequence never changes, so you only ever need to take this test once in your lifetime.
Your privacy is paramount. Samples are fully anonymized using a randomized barcode at the laboratory. Your genetic data is encrypted, stored on secure servers, and never sold or shared with third parties or insurance providers.
