Discover your InnerSelfie with multi-omics profiling
What if we focused on preventing disease instead of treating after the harm is done? Preventive care results in cost savings to society, contributes to an overall improvement in public health, and thus promotes quality of life. Underlying this approach is viewing at the level of the individual rather than taking a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Thanks to rapid advances in life sciences, especially in the field of multi-omics, personalized health care is now possible.
The personal and the bigger picture
With "My InnerSelfie," we are taking advantage of these multi-omics developments. Here we look at interactions between multiple levels of biology: microbiome, metabolome and genome. This enables deep phenotyping, allowing us to more accurately assess and optimize your health. We take into account your unique genetics, microbiome, gene expression, environment and lifestyle factors.
The power of crosstalk
Although individual omics data for only one type of biology are largely correlative in nature, combining multiple omics provides functional information. This allows us to accurately subtype and look at host-microbe and host-environment interactions.
The synergy of data and biology
With our unique combination of data science and biological expertise, we enable data-driven development of therapies. We decipher thousands of individual chemical signals from genetic and non-genetic factors to reveal biological pathways. This approach sheds light on complex biological systems and establishes connections beyond the reach of individual omics analyses. It provides a detailed view of phenotype, with a focus on phenotypic flexibility within a nutrigenomic framework. "My InnerSelfie" stands as a powerful tool in health care, with the goal of more accurate injury risk management and premature aging. This is achieved by recognizing the uniqueness of each individual, as opposed to conventional one-size-fits-all and reactive methodologies.
Your unique metabolic pathway mapped: 'My InnerSelfie'
How does it work?
We will analyze your saliva, stool and urine. In some cases of well-defined analyses, a sample collection of sweat will also be requested. We do not focus on one aspect, but look at all dynamic interactions.
- Your potential and genetic makeup
Your genetic makeup is a factor in determining
your potential. It is like a blueprint that indicates your potential and limits. - Your microbiome and environmental factors
The microorganisms that live on and in our bodies reflect the environmental conditions in which you live. These tiny organisms can tell us a lot about the condition you are in. - Metabolites and your "subway route."
Metabolites are the substances that characterize your unique "subway route. They are a situational diagram of your personal operating system. They show how your body reacts to certain situations and how it functions. - A biochemical picture of your body
By studying all these factors, we get a good picture of what is going on in your body at the biochemical level. This helps us better understand how your body works and how we can support it to function optimally.
The relevance of your unique metabolic pathway
The food we consume daily provides our bodies with building materials, protective substances and fuels. It is therefore crucial that the absorption (absorption), distribution (distribution), conversion (metabolism) and excretion (excretion) of these substances function optimally. We call this the ADME of metabolism.
Metabolism involves processes taking place in your body cells that convert one substance into another. To get energy from nutrients, there are a number of steps your body must go through. Your body needs energy to function. However, your daily foods, such as bread, milk, meat, vegetables and potatoes, are not directly suitable for use as energy. Your body has to do something with it first. These nutrients are reduced in the gastrointestinal tract and transported through the blood to the body's cells. In the cell, the nutrients are further processed.
Why a phenotype for nutrition?
Despite taking good care of your health, the ADME may be temporarily disrupted. Just as a subway route may be interrupted. Causes can be very diverse and can be related to stress, flu, medication, travel, ... A good knowledge of your phenotype and following the recommendations helps to spring back to the original optimal state of balance. This network of metabolic pathways can differ from person to person.
