Useful Things I Learned from Having My Genome Tested (2014)

I'm a bit leery to take advice from a person who is willing to take multiple DNA tests and analyze their research, and yet according to her About page, turned to Chinese medicine and practices quack pseudoscience herself.

DNA tests have their merit - I did 23andMe because as someone who is adopted, it gave me a rough blueprint of what to expect in terms of long term health risks. But even with their assessments, they're all based on research studies and not your actual body. For example, 23andMe claims I'm Factor V Leiden, and yet a blood test confirmed this was not the case. So even with a high confidence rating on 23andMe, it was wrong, so now I take everything from 23andMe with a grain of salt.
