Anxiety & Depression 5-HTTLPR DNA Test |
|
|
Do you have a family history of depression? You may have the “grouchy” gene, linked to altered serotonin levels and an increased risk of anxiety and depression. Find out with this DNA test. |

DNA Warrior Gene Test |
|
|
The "warrior" gene is a common genetic variant so nicknamed because of its association with aggressive behaviour in men. Is aggression your immediate response to stress? Are you business savvy because of your genes? Find out if you have the “warrior” gene. |

Female Infidelity Gene AVPR1A Test |
|
|
The female infidelity gene is a genetic variant of the AVPR1A gene. The AVPR1A gene encodes a protein called arginine vasopressin receptor 1A. Five genetic changes in the AVPR1A gene are associated with an increased likelihood of extrapair mating or cheating in women. |

Male Pair-Bonding Gene AVPR1A DNA Test |
|
|
The male pair-bonding gene is sometimes referred to as the male infidelity gene. It is a genetic variant of the AVPR1A gene which encodes a protein called arginine vasopressin receptor 1A. A genetic variant known as the RS3 334 allele is associated with diminished pair-boding in males. |

Promiscuity Gene DRD4 Test |
|
|
The "promiscuity gene" is a genetic variant of the DRD4 gene, which encodes the dopamine receptor D4. DRD4 variation can occur in a repeat region that controls the structure of the dopamine receptor. Genetic variants knows as the 7R+ alleles are associated with promiscuity, hence is known as the "promiscuity gene." |

|
|
Wanderlust Gene Test |
|
|
The "wanderlust gene" is a genetic variant of the DRD4 gene, which encodes the dopamine receptor D4. DRD4 variation can occur in a repeat region that controls the structure of the dopamine receptor. Genetic variants known as the 7R+ alleles are more likely to seek out new experiences, hence the 7R+ allele is known as the "wanderlust gene." |
