Genetic Testing
Better health with a little help from your genes
Know what your genes say about your risk for common cancers and heart conditions — and how your body might process certain medications.*
Accessible, clinical-grade
genetic testing
Unlike recreational genetic tests, we focus on thorough sequencing of genes to give you meaningful insights. We provide an affordable clinical-grade test that historically has cost thousands of dollars.
Thorough gene analysis
Just looking at snippets with recreational tests means you miss information – we take a more complete look.
Genes recognized by the CDC
We include all 10 genes recognized by the CDC as important for public health.1

* Do not change or stop taking any medicine based on a genetic test report without consulting your healthcare provider. This test is not intended to inform you about your current state of health, including whether or not you should take a medication or how much you should take. This test does not diagnose any health conditions and is not a substitute for visiting your healthcare provider. Discuss the results of the genetic test with your healthcare provider, including whether the medication label includes information on how to use genetic information to determine dosage. Medicine should always be taken as prescribed by your healthcare provider.
** Risk information and screening guidelines in results are typically based on studies of individuals with a family history of the disorder being discussed. Medical management should be considered also taking into account your personal and family history.
