Understanding Your CPS1 (Cardiovascular, Kidney Health) Variants: A DNA Gene Report
Do you ever wonder why your cholesterol, homocysteine, or kidney lab markers don’t respond the same way as someone else’s—even with similar habits? Have you been told to “just eat better” or “drink more water,” but you want guidance that actually fits your biology? Your CPS1 (Cardiovascular, Kidney Health) gene helps run a key detox pathway called the urea cycle, which supports how your body handles nitrogen from protein and clears it safely through the kidneys—so understanding your CPS1 genetic variants can add meaningful context to heart and kidney health decisions.
Key Report Highlights
This CPS1 (Cardiovascular, Kidney Health) Gene Report analyzes genetic variants linked to differences in CPS1 activity and related cardiometabolic and kidney markers, then turns your results into 4 personalized recommendations. CPS1 encodes carbamoyl phosphate synthetase I—an enzyme that controls the first step of the urea cycle in the liver, helping convert potentially toxic ammonia into urea for kidney excretion. A compelling takeaway: CPS1-related differences can influence downstream markers often discussed in cardiovascular risk conversations, including LDL/HDL balance and homocysteine, while also being associated in research with kidney function measures such as eGFR.
Personalized, Actionable Recommendations
Your recommendations are tailored to your CPS1 (Cardiovascular, Kidney Health) genotype—so the guidance is aligned to how your body may process protein-derived nitrogen and related metabolic signals. You’ll receive dietary and supplement recommendations designed to be practical and actionable. Depending on your results, your plan may include examples like adjusting protein timing/portioning to support nitrogen handling, or targeted nutrient support aimed at pathways connected to homocysteine balance and cardiovascular markers. Each recommendation is framed to help you make informed choices you can discuss with your clinician, especially if you’re monitoring lipids, kidney labs, or overall cardiometabolic risk.
User-Friendly Format and Trust
With actionable and easy-to-understand recommendations, the report is designed for seamless integration into your daily life. Its user-friendly format ensures accessibility, making complex genetic data understandable and practical for users at all levels of familiarity with genetic information.
The report is rooted in accuracy and reliability, backed by comprehensive scientific research from reputable sources. It has garnered the trust of over 150,000 users and 1,000+ healthcare professionals. Furthermore, the report complies with HIPAA and GDPR, ensuring your privacy and security are prioritized.

CPS1 insights, fewer spikes.
Emily P.
The kidney and heart info was actually useful, not just generic tips.
Elif L.
I learned more about my heart from this than I expected, especially with the food recommendations.

The CPS1 report was helpful for translating a gene name into real heart and blood vessel actions. I’m in my late 50s, borderline blood pressure, and trying to protect my kidneys too. The report explained why nitric oxide pathways matter for me and gave clear options. I chose food first, more dietary nitrates from arugula, celery, and beets, plus dietary L-arginine from lentils and salmon. When I wanted an extra push, I used L-citrulline on days I did longer walks. My morning readings dropped a few points and my legs felt warmer on cold days.

As a 32 year old runner, I kept getting lightheaded after hard intervals and assumed it was just hydration. The CPS1 (Cardiovascular, Kidney Health) report pushed me to look at vascular support and kidney related ammonia handling, not just electrolytes. I started using the suggested L-ornithine L-aspartate on heavy training days, and I increased dietary nitrates with spinach and beet juice. I also swapped one snack to an L-arginine source, roasted chickpeas. The big win was recovery, less post run headache and fewer next day “heavy legs.”
