More Questions »

How is the DNA sample collected?

DNA is collected by rubbing a brush gently inside the mouth against the cheek for 15 seconds. The collection is safe and painless.

Is there an age limit?

No. All DNA health and disease tests can be performed on individuals of any age, even newborns. If the patient is a minor, the legal guardian must sign the DNA testing consent form.

What happens to my samples after they have been tested?

All testing is completely anonymized to ensure that your data is protected. Your samples are processed using alphanumeric codes to ensure confidentiality. Following testing, your samples are disposed of by our CAP accredited and CLIA approved laboratories.

If I inherit a risk variant, will I definitely develop the disease?

No. The genetic risk variants detected in the health and disease tests offered here are each associated with an increased risk of developing a specific disease. However, there are multiple other genetic and environmental factors that are also involved before the diseases develop. An understanding of your genetic predisposition for a particular disease can enable you to make lifestyle changes now and/or increase monitoring to mimimize the impact of the disease before it is too late.
