UK-based health science brand Bio-Synergy introduced its DNA + Epigenetics Kit in Mumbai. Kynora Life Sciences LLP markets and distributes the product in India. The kit aims to help individuals better understand how their lifestyle, diet and environment may influence gene expression, biological ageing and long-term health. The launch comes amid growing interest in preventive healthcare and personalised wellness, particularly in managing risk factors associated with metabolic health, diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
DNA and Epigenetics Testing for Personalised Health Insights
Unlike conventional DNA tests that primarily examine genetic variations, Bio-Synergy’s DNA + Epigenetics Kit analyses epigenetic markers, including DNA methylation, to assess how lifestyle and environmental factors may influence gene activity. According to the company, the kit analyses more than 300 bodily markers and generates a detailed report with personalised lifestyle recommendations. It also offers access to the company’s researched nutraceutical products to support metabolic health. Bio-Synergy states that it maintains strict confidentiality of users’ DNA data.
Mumbai Launch Highlights Preventive Healthcare and Longevity
The launch event opened with an expert panel discussion on human longevity and the role of advanced testing in making preventive healthcare more personalised and actionable. Subsequently, Bio-Synergy unveiled the kit to invited guests and members of Mumbai’s health and fitness community. The event concluded with interactive product sampling.
Experts Highlight the Role of Personalised Health Insights
Daniel Herman, Founder of Bio-Synergy UK, said, “Mumbai moves with an energy like no other, and we’re excited to bring a new perspective on health to this dynamic city. DNA and epigenetics can help people understand their unique biology and make smarter, more personalised choices for a healthier future.”
Dr. Katherine Rahill, former NASA scientist and Chief Scientific Officer at Bio-Synergy UK, highlighted the importance of monitoring biological changes over time. She said, “At NASA, my work focused on how demanding environments change the human body over time. DNA and epigenetic testing applies the same principle we use with astronauts: measure early, understand how the body is responding, and act before small changes become lasting ones.”
Ritesh Bajaj, Cricket Strength and Conditioning Coach, emphasised the importance of individualised training and recovery. He said, “Cricketers train hard, but most programmes aren’t built on Individual outcomes. Two players can follow the same plan and respond very differently. Seeing how an individual’s body responds to training, recovery and nutrition lets us coach the person in front of us, not a template.”
Dr. Ashish Vakil, IVF Specialist, highlighted the potential role of lifestyle awareness in reproductive health. He said, “Long before a couple walks into a fertility clinic, lifestyle has already been shaping their health. When people can see how their habits are affecting their biology, they have a real reason to make changes early.”
Advancing Personalised and Preventive Healthcare
Routine health assessments and laboratory tests provide valuable information about selected health indicators at a particular point in time. In comparison, epigenetic testing aims to offer additional insights into how biological processes may respond to lifestyle and environmental influences. As per the press release, through its DNA + Epigenetics Kit, Bio-Synergy seeks to help individuals make more informed decisions about nutrition, physical activity, recovery and healthy ageing. However, epigenetic testing complements rather than replaces standard medical assessments, and its findings should be interpreted in the context of established clinical evidence.
With its Mumbai launch, Bio-Synergy is expanding its presence in India’s personalised wellness market, focusing on the role of biological insights in supporting informed lifestyle choices and long-term health management.
