A lifetime of innovation to build the clearest picture of what’s happening inside your body.
At Stride, our approach to DNA, microbiome, and blood testing is rooted in robust human research. Each marker we analyse—whether genetic, microbial, or biochemical—is supported by strong scientific evidence and validated in human populations. We do not rely on theoretical associations or early-stage laboratory findings. Instead, every inclusion in our reports must meet the highest standard of relevance, replicability, and reliability.
What truly sets our testing apart is not only the accuracy of the data, but also how it is applied. Raw numbers or broad predispositions have limited value on their own. Our focus is on turning validated research into personalised, practical guidance—helping you understand what the science means for your daily life, rather than leaving you with abstract or speculative results. Repeat testing allows you to track changes over time and get tangible feedback on the impacts your changes are having on your health.
By grounding our reports in human evidence and translating them into actionable insights, we ensure that each recommendation—whether for diet, lifestyle, or long-term health planning—carries real weight. This means you’re not just learning what your results say, but also how to use them to make meaningful, sustainable changes to your wellbeing.

“I’m so happy I found this test! It always felt strange to me that I had to live so clean and healthy just to feel okay. I was also really concerned about why, even when I was eating well and at a healthy weight, I still had terrible cellulite and vein issues. Since I started taking the recommended vitamins, I’ve noticed such a big change—my legs feel so much lighter, and the size of my veins has reduced significantly. I believe it’s because my body is now able to detox and function more efficiently. Even my cellulite has improved so much. Thank you!"

“I have suffered from chronic health conditions for years now and have been treated with medication which doesn’t help much and certainly doesn’t cure. This DNA test has changed everything for me. I have learned unfortunately I have terrible genetics, can’t methylate and need lots of extra nutrition in areas I would never have thought of. Once you get over the disappointment of being born with dysfunctional genes you realise that with that specific knowledge, is power to get your health back, what to avoid, what to be aware of (higher risks for certain diseases) and more importantly what you can do to strengthen your body through vitamins, amino acids, oils and minerals. Life changing info that can be both preventative and natural treatment for better health, energy and wellbeing. An amazing company. The vitamins sachets are delicious too!”

“I have been a user for 6 months now and in my opinion Stride has been a key factor in rebalancing my body chemistry. The benefits that I have seen have ranged from gross benefits such as cessation of bloating and unease in my bowels to subtle improvements in nail & hair growth.”

“After 17 years on anti-depressants for anxiety due to low serotonin, I have slowly managed to wean off the medication, usually always resulting in a huge relapses of anxiety and going back on them in a hurry. This time I have put measures in place to avoid this happening which was getting a DNA test done and purchasing their recommended daily methylation support stack which to my surprise has worked wonders and has kept me at a good level where I am feeling good, sleeping well, not feeling drowsy in the morning and overall feeling less anxious! You guys are doing a great job! Keep up the good work at Stride!”
