GeneWize Product FAQ’s
Posted on 01. Aug, 2010 by Vincent Muir in GeneWize Life Sciences, The GeneWize FAQs
What does the product look and taste like?
The existing version of the LifeMap Nutrition System™ products comes in a ‘take it or break it’ capsule. You can ‘take it’ and consume the capsule or ‘break it’ and mix the insides of the capsule with any beverage.
How much will the customized product cost?
Product prices are currently being determined and are anticipated to be very reasonable and affordable. The retail price of the product is expected to be about $4 a day (about the same cost of a premium cup of coffee). On the other hand, GeneWize will offer a substantial discount for those customers who choose to go on auto-ship (which can be canceled at any time).
Moreover, GeneWize will offer an exceptional ‘Enroll four and pay no more’ program available to both customers and affiliates. This program will be explained in full detail at one of the Executive Preview Events or in the compensation plan pamphlet. Very simply, it offers anyone the chance to refer four new customers and receive their personal product at no cost.
How can you individually customize a product and keep the price inexpensive?
GeneWize has patented and patent pending DNA assessments and innovative industrialized technologies that make it possible to mass customize your product at a price that is only slightly higher than generalized products.
The laboratory only evaluates key ‘health aging areas’ related to your overall health.
GeneWize will never rent, share or sell your information to anyone for any purpose.
What product benefits will I be expecting?
The LifeMap Nutrition System™ Products are custom created for you based on the results of your LifeMap Healthy Aging Assessment™. However, GeneWize makes no claims at all on specifically what your individual product will do for you or what health benefits you may expect. They believe you will notice a variety of personal benefits by using your custom product regularly but the only way you will know for sure is to try it yourself. They offer a 90-day money back guarantee to customers if you wish to return your product for any reason. They also offer a 90-day affiliate money back guarantee.
(Not including the genetic assessment or shipping charges).
How can I be sure my customized product contains high quality ingredients?
GeneWize uses only organic and natural ingredients where available; our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility is fully GMP, FDA and ISO compliant.
What if I have specific nutritional needs due to my lifestyle? For example, what if I am an athlete, or what if I work long hours and have low energy?
To help address your specific lifestyle needs, in the near future GeneWize is planning to offer a variety of affordable “Lifestyle Boosts,” which can be formulated with your DNA-specific product. The LifeMap Life Style Boost™ program will be explained in full detail soon.
How can I be certain the product will be right for me?
The scientific team has over 100 years of combined research experience and hundreds of peer reviewed articles in the fields of genetics, medicine, biochemistry, nutritional sciences, microbiology and medicine. The science team has worked for over 10 years to create a system that combines assessments and formulations designed to transform the burgeoning science of genomics and nutrition in to practical benefits.
They can reference numerous studies that show that the ingredients they use are effective and can address the key biochemical pathways measured by our DNA assessments.
Additionally, GeneWize offers its customers (and Affiliates) a 90-day money back guarantee on product purchases. (Not including the genetic assessment or shipping charges).
What is an individually formulated ‘Single Product Solution’ and why is it important?
GeneWize has patents (and patents pending) on its collection kit and DNA assessments and utilizes a manufacturing and formulation system intended to successfully create an affordable customized, individually formulated product based on your DNA. Ultimately, you receive a ‘single product’ solution rather than various bottles and boxes.
The benefits of the Single-Product Solution include:
- You obtain the customized DNA guided formula your body needs, distributed to your door each month
- You save money — you don’t pay for product and packaging you don’t need
- You avoid annoyances — the Single-Product Solution is easier to store and travel with than multiple bottles and boxes
- You don’t waste – no fillers or pointless ingredients your body doesn’t need
- You can easily customize — if you want more energy or if you are an athlete (for example) in the near future you will be able to add affordable Life Style Boosts to your product without added packaging — this can save you time and money
- You can help support the environment — the savings in packaging and emissions in the Single-Product Solution make it safer for the environment — and right now the environment needs our help
Why doesn’t GeneWize use the supplement quercertin in their formulas?
In general, they like the clinical information about quercertin and up until recently they were planning on using quercertin in their formulas. However, they removed quercitin due to potential problems with this ingredient (and the FDA) involving its GRAS status (Generally Recognized as Safe). When the FDA finally rules on this ingredient’s status and they see more supporting information regarding its safety, they will consider adding it back in to their formulations where appropriate.
Is it true that some major vitamin manufacturers use synthetic versions of the vitamins listed on their label, and that some people believe your body can’t soak up most of what’s in synthetic products?
Professionals have somewhat conflicting views and views concerning the use of synthetic vitamin supplements and to the best of their knowledge, there have not been valid studies on this subject. GeneWize Life Sciences uses mostly natural and organic ingredients when possible, however depending upon your formula, about 5 to 10% of their current compensating ingredients are synthetic. When and if clinically supported natural alternatives become available to replace these minor synthetics GeneWize will substitute the synthetics for natural/organic ingredients.
How does the LifeMap Nutrition System™ work with my LifeMap Healthy Aging Assessment™ to help me?
The GeneWize Life Sciences scientific medical advisory board has urbanized ingredients that have been shown to a positive effect on the key biochemical pathways identified by your 12-gene Healthy Aging Assessment. The LifeMap custom nutritional system incorporates scientifically supported ingredients that have been validated by independent third-party research and data.
Are the LifeMap Nutrition System™ capsules vegetarian?
The LifeMap system utilizes a two-piece capsule made from cellulosic raw materials designed to satisfy vegetarian and cultural needs. They are all natural two-piece vegetable capsules that are easy to swallow and allow for product visibility. The capsules are also starch-free, gluten-free, and preservative-free and meet the firm dietary needs of customers who choose a vegetarian lifestyle. The capsules are also kosher and Halal certified.
Have GeneWize products been approved by the Canadian Health Authority, and does it have a DIN#?
No, GeneWize products have not been approved by the Canadian Health Authority and there is not a DIN#.
I’m not scientifically prone; will it difficult for me to succeed in this business?
No. GeneWize has made it simple and easy to explain the products and opportunity by the use of DVDs, CD, conference calls, websites and plain English. Most people intuitively understand that it just makes sense that it’s far better to know what your body needs by using your DNA to guide you.
Why shouldn’t I just take a lot of of dietary supplements to cover everything?
Even though you can purchase and use a wide variety of nutritional supplements, most health care practitioners would agree that this is neither wise nor practical. By understanding your predispositions from a DNA SNP perspective, GeneWize is able to create an individualized nutritional supplement program specifically for you. This targeted approach (rather than a shotgun, or one-size-fits-all supplement approach) ultimately helps save you time, money and more prominently focuses your regimen on key areas that are important to your individual physiology.
What is the possibility of contamination of my supplement?
While no company can guarantee 100% safety from contamination in any industry; the state-of-the-art manufacturing facility is fully GMP and ISO compliant, and FDA Certified.
May I market to the world using the Internet?
The company is instituting a program that will include a library of accepted materials. This program is in cooperation with a group of experienced Internet Marketers that GeneWize Affiliates have dubbed the Internet Marketing Advisory Committee (IMAC). The company’s – Internet Marketing and Powerful Affiliate Compliance – (IMPAC) program will provide all Affiliates with a ‘Vault Library’ of marketing resources as well as a interactive tutorial to help you market GeneWize, its products and services on the internet.
Does the FDA pre approve GeneWize products?
No. Nor do they pre approve One-A-Day vitamins, for example, or most any other nutritional supplement sold over the counter, through Direct Selling or in health food stores or GNC (or anywhere else for that matter).
All of the ingredients used in GeneWize LifeMap Products fall under the categorization: GRAS (Generally Regarded As Safe). The FDA doesn’t ‘pre-approve’ nutritional or dietary supplements. Below is the statement from the FDA’s website:
“FDA regulates dietary supplements under a different set of regulations than those covering “conventional” foods and drug products (prescription and Over-the-Counter). Under the Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act of 1994 (DSHEA), the dietary supplement manufacturer is responsible for ensuring that a dietary supplement is safe before it is marketed. FDA is responsible for taking action against any unsafe dietary supplement product after it reaches the market. Generally, manufacturers do not need to register their products with FDA nor get FDA approval before producing or selling dietary supplements.* Manufacturers must make sure that product label information is truthful and not misleading.
FDA’s post-marketing responsibilities include monitoring safety, e.g. voluntary dietary supplement adverse event reporting, and product information, such as labeling, claims, package inserts, and accompanying literature. The Federal Trade Commission regulates dietary supplement advertising.”
Will I have to pay taxes and shipping?
As they have announced on several conference calls, their systems have been in place since July 1st to begin collecting appropriate sales tax and shipping charges. Please note that going forward from July 1st all packages will reflect these charges. Please advise your new partners that they will see these charges at the final payment stage of the on-line application.
Do I have to sign a contract; i.e. for six months or a year?
No. You may cancel your Affiliate agreement at any time but there is a 6-month waiting period if you would like to re-enroll
Is there the likelihood of side effects from taking the supplement?
Yes. Some people are responsive to a number of ingredients in any supplements. They provide you with a complete list of ingredients in your formula. If you have ANY concerns, check with you doctor.
Is there a discount for the auto-ship program or if I pay for the entire year in advance?
GeneWize doesn’t recommend purchasing a year in advance because they may make additional preferred Lifestyle Boost™ available or change ingredients if superior ones become available.
Are there limitations to certain people taking the GeneWize DNA Vitamins, i.e.; people with allergies, various illnesses, pregnant women, people on medication, or pregnant men?
Yes. Some people are sensitive to a number of ingredients in any supplements. They provide you with a total list of ingredients in your formula. If you have ANY concerns, check with you doctor.
Will the assessment and supplement address areas such as joint problems?
Yes and No. Your assessment will report bone health propensities but can’t measure your activity levels, which may have an influence on your overall bone health.
Am I permitted to enroll friends in Europe?
Not at this moment in time.
Will the GeneWize LifeMap Formulation correct my SNP deficiency after time? Will I have to re-test?
Genes never change but the expression of genes can be assisted with the proper nutrition. No, you will never need to be tested for the 12 genes they test for.
What form of Vitamin E is used in the LifeMap nutrition product?
The vitamin E used in their formula (d-alpha-tocopheryl), is the most bio-available form of vitamin E.
What percentage of the formula will be food based?
About 80% to 90% depending on your individual personalized LifeMap formula is food based. Their food based ingredients are either air-dried or spray-dried.
Do people with allergies to milk, corn, and tomatoes need to be concerned?
None of the ingredients in the LifeMap SNP Boosts or base formula contains milk; however, the base formula contains maltodextrin which is made from corn, and tomato powder extract. If in doubt, anyone with known allergies should consult their physician prior to using their LifeMap Nutrition product.
