Rare Gene Variation Test Details
Basic MTHFR & APOE4 Gene Test Bundle
Unlock insights into your genetic profile with a simple at-home cheek swab test designed to help identify rare genetic variations that may influence brain health, metabolism, and nutrient processing.
This bundle combines the Basic APOE Genetic Test and the Basic MTHFR Genetic Test, offering targeted analysis of two of the most researched genetic pathways linked to lipid metabolism, folate metabolism, and methylation. Designed to detect rare genetic variations as well as more common genotypes, your results provide clear, actionable insights into your APOE and MTHFR status, along with personalized nutrition and lifestyle considerations to support informed health decisions.
Better understand how your body processes essential nutrients and take a proactive, personalized approach to optimizing your overall wellness based on your unique genetic blueprint.
- Register your kit using the easy instructions
- Complete the cheek swab and return your sample using the included pre-paid mailer
- Get your results in about 2 to 3 weeks delivered securely to your inbox
- If at any time, you'd like to receive additional reports, you can upgrade for more genetic insights through the portal

Why Use Fenix Gene Tests?
Basic MTHFR & APOE4 Gene Test Bundle
What's Included with our
Basic APOE Report
A focused genetic report centered exclusively on your APOE genotype and allele status.
This assessment includes:
- Identification of whether you carry 0, 1, or 2 copies of APOE4
- How your genotype relates to lipid metabolism and inflammatory response
- An overview of how APOE influences the brain
- Personalized lifestyle strategies based on your genotype
What's Included with our
Basic MTHFR Report
Two focused genetic reports centered exclusively on your MTHFR genotype and estimated enzyme activity.
This assessment includes:
- The common MTHFR variants (C677T and/or A1298C)
- How your genotype may influence folate metabolism and methylation efficiency
- How MTHFR supports homocysteine balance
- Personalized nutrition considerations based on your genetic insight
Why APOE4 & MTHFR Matter
Genetic testing for APOE and MTHFR provides insight into your unique gene variants, including whether you carry common or rare gene variations that may influence how your body functions. APOE testing identifies your genotype, including the E4 variant, while MTHFR testing analyzes variants like C677T and A1298C that affect methylation and folate metabolism.
While these results do not diagnose or determine outcomes, they can help you better understand how your body may respond to factors such as inflammation, cholesterol metabolism, and nutrient processing. Many people use this information to support more personalized nutrition, lifestyle choices, and conversations with healthcare providers.
Research shows that lifestyle plays a key role in long-term health. Understanding both common and rare gene variations can help you make more informed decisions aligned with your biology.

Your kit includes everything needed for simple at-home DNA collection and secure processing:
Inside the box:
- Sterile cheek swab
- Collection vial
- Biohazard specimen bag
- Prepaid return mailer
- Step-by-step collection instructions
Included with your purchase:
- Secure registration and laboratory processing by a CLIA-certified genomics partner
- Personalized APOE report(s)
- Clear interpretations with easy-to-follow recommendations
- Confidential delivery of your results
The process is designed to be convenient, secure, and easy to complete at home.
The collection process is designed to be simple, quick, and non-invasive.
Your kit includes a cheek swab that collects DNA from the inside of your mouth — no needles, no blood draw, and no lab visit required. You gently swab the inside of your cheek for a few seconds, following the step-by-step instructions included in the kit. The process is painless and typically takes just a few minutes from start to finish.
There’s no special preparation needed beyond avoiding food or drinks 60 minutes before swabbing, as directed in the instructions. Once complete, you place the swab into the provided container and mail it back using the prepaid packaging.
It’s a straightforward, non-invasive way to access advanced genetic insights — all from the comfort and privacy of your home.
Your genetic information is protected using strict privacy and security standards.
Your DNA is used only to run your test and generate your personal results. It is not sold, shared for advertising, or used for unrelated research purposes.
Testing and analysis are conducted by a clinical laboratory partner that operates under HIPAA and GDPR privacy standards. Your data is protected using multi-level encryption, and additional safeguards are in place to reduce risk.
To further protect your privacy:
- Your personal identifying information is stored separately from your genetic data (data separation protocol).
- Genetic data is maintained in an anonymized genome database, meaning it is not stored in a way that directly identifies you.
- Results are shared only with you — and with your healthcare provider only if you request it.
Protecting your privacy and maintaining data security are core components of the testing process.
Take this test if you...
- Want insight into your genetics related to brain health & nutrient metabolism
- Have a family history of dementia or Alzheimer’s and concerns around methylation and folate processing
- Want to be proactive about cognitive & metabolic wellness
- Want personalized nutrition and lifestyle guidance
- Want to understand if/how rare gene variations affect your body
- Want actionable insights—not just raw genetic data
- Prefer non-invasive testing without bloodwork

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Yes. Upon withdrawal of consent, data is securely deleted from active systems. Some backups may take additional time to be purged, but they are removed according to our scheduled deletion processes.
It is standard practice in the genetic labs using Illumina machines in the USA to keep unprocessed data in a fully anonymized form. These labs do not have access to the system that identifies the person with their sample—all they have is an ID number. The lab retains a copy of raw genetic data for clients to support interpretation and report generation. -
