User questions & answers

Question:	Do you have to answer a bunch of questions as well? Or do you just send the sample
Answer:	All 3 companies test approximately 700k SNPs. There is a large overlap between all 3 tests as they use a similar backend system but the overlap is not 100%.
Question:	How much snp overlap with 23andme and ancestry? if i buy the vitagene test, do i still have to pay more to upload 23andme and ancestry data to it
Answer:	I really do recommend ancestryDNA because you can get your health report from other databases with your raw dna as well as use GEDmatch to compare and analyze chtomosomes and find others who have uploaded their raw data into gedmatch who may be using other sites like 23andme and family tree. I found my dads half sister in 6 days after receiving my report and i didnt even know dad had a half sibling. He was adopted along with his other 3 siblings when he was little. All siblings were seperated and dad only found 1 of them. But i was able to find one he didnt even know existed. His half sister didnt even jnow sge had 4 other siblings until a couple years ago whej he dad told her, her and dad share the same mothet though. But the thing about thw mother is nobody knows if she is dead or not. It is assumed she died by word of mouth back in 1962 but there is zero paper trail, not even a census. Anyway, acestry is good, or 23andme or family finder (family tree) since all give raw data that can be used on promethease for your health report and gedmatch for chromosome comparisons and finding others who ysed a different kit than you did. Oh and from gedmatch i ran my dna with my aunts. Her and mom are fraternal twins. Mom didnt do a test but me and my aunt did ours at the same time. My dna is a complete half match to my aunt. Technically we should only match 25%, not 50%. Also it was weird that AncestryDNA says we are related by parent/sibling. I found out that her and mom are not fraternal. They are whats called di/di identical twins. They started out as 1 egg and 1 sperm, but split very early between 1 and 3 days after fertilization so they were able to grow their own placentas rather than share 1 like standard identicle twins. Didi identical twins are impossoble to confirm without a dna test but since my half of the dna that comes from my mothers side matches with my aunts, the only explination is they are actually identicle di/di twins. This also means that if my cousins and i were to run our dna with each other it would make them look like my half sisters rather than cousins. Im having a lot of fun with this dna stuff. But most sites that accept raw dna only accept the top 3 major brands. Gedmatch accepts anyone who can use raw data but promethease.com only accepts ancestry, 23andme and family tree. I used some other sites but those 2 for the raw data seem to be the ones i play with the most.
Question:	Does this test tell you if you have mthfr mutation? Can you take the raw data and plug it into a site such as genetic gene to get methylation info
Answer:	This test actually looks at 25,000 drug interactions with supplements, it gives you over 400 recipes for food that is matched to your allergies, genetics and goals. I put myself, my daughter and my mother on this platform because I was tired of changing doctors and getting random medication recommendations which were at best guess work. The reality is that unless you have a very clear well diagnosed disease, the average primary doctor can not help you with general nutritional issues, allergies and immune system reaction. You have to redesign how you eat and pay a lot of attention to your body. This is the only platform that I have found in which you can ask any questions you want from the staff members and they dig up the science article that is relevant to your genetics, allergies and medication and explain to you clearly what do with your diet and supplements and fitness routines to help your body fight it. Honestly the other genetic test which I also took were mostly toys. Ancestry is great at telling you if you are 23.7% Irish which is very exciting for a day but did not help me deal with my daughters Eczema. every time, she went swimming, her skin would break out and she will hate it. So many doctors gave her very medication creams which had strong hormones or steroids. I put her on Vitagene supplements and after 90 days she has no sign of Eczema. I have shown this to all my friends, her body is just healthier and stronger to deal with the impact of the pool chemicals on her skin.
Question:	why is this info different from all the other genetic tests ive taken
Answer:	None, doesn't work for me.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it identify black mouth cur even though not recognized by AKC

Question:	During the covid-19 pandemic how long will it take to get my results back
Answer:	Wisdom Panel is experiencing no delays in sample processing due to Covid-19. Once the sample is checked in at the lab you can expect results in roughly 2-3 weeks.
Question:	How many test strips come in the package
Answer:	There are two and they are not really test strips. They are like a little brush type swab and both have to be used on the same dog. Using both strips helps to get enough cells to get a DNA. Not crazy over Wisdom Panel. This is the first time we tried Wisdom Panel. We usually use Embark.

User questions & answers

Question:	I’m adopted and trying to find relatives. Is this the right kit for me
Answer:	I got a small which was fairly true to size ... however, I've been able to wear medium gloves in other styles ... I choice small for these gloves because I wanted a tight fit.
Question:	Does this test tell what all you have in you
Answer:	Wet they're fine, warmth I think they would be similar to an uninsulated mechanic glove.
Question:	Will tell me what I have American Indian in me
Answer:	Mine are more tan than yellow
Question:	will test reveal if I am Jewish
Answer:	With moderate activity level these gloves are fine to 20 degrees f. I own many pairs of gloves since my fingers get cold easily. These fall into the average category for me. The insulation seems to compress with little rebound. Attractive styling and durable. They are fine for what they are made for-skiing. Just keep moving.

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it test for SOD1 in degenerative myelopathy
Answer:	I went over my dog’s report and reviewed the many genetic factors that are tested. DM is listed as being tested for but there is no mention of SOD1 in the description. If it is found present there would almost surely be a more detailed explanation of the results.
Question:	can I use dog hair for testing
Answer:	I don't think dog hair can be used as they gather the saliva from inside the check, which my dog thought was a fun game
Question:	Does one kit test just one dog
Answer:	Yes, one kit one dog.
Question:	Is this good for mixed breeds
Answer:	Yes! The reason I bought it is because no-one could figure out what our little mutt was made of. We had so many different opinions. Most common opinion was cocker/yorkie mix. Test showed she is 50% small poodle, 16% Shih Tsu and 13% Lhasa apso. Also indicated that she had no genetic issues re: health.

Question:	Is this good for shaving your head
Answer:	Yeah, you’re good to use this on your head. I use this all the time to shave my head while I’m in the shower. New blades actually leave a smoother shave that lasts longer. I say I have pretty sensitive skin and I don’t notice any irritation.
Question:	My handle says it’s made in Poland; are all these proglide made in Poland
Answer:	The Flexball handles are made in Poland. The cartridges themselves are made in Boston for N. America and Berlin for Europe.
Question:	Does this razor come with a holder like all the other razors have for when you finish shaving
Answer:	I am sure it will but why buy a razor that gouges your wallet when dollar Shave and Harry's Razors both will custom deliver to you? Both of which I have tried and both are as good if not better than Gillette in quality. Personally I recommend Harry's. But Dollar shave is a fine establishment too. From an, Ex Gillette user who will never use their products again.

User questions & answers

Question:	how does this compare to the ScienceWiz kit
Answer:	I don't find it tight. Can even wear a thin layer over a shirt and it's ok. I like the jacket. Just wish it had an inside pocket.
Question:	Is this Kit inquiry based
Answer:	It’s a great jacket but, would not recommend it for carry-on / it’s not bulky big just not lightweight either ..
Question:	can i usemy own dna and preserve it
Answer:	Medium size
Question:	Is this kit complete
Answer:	I'm 12-14 and I got a large. I purchased the X large first and exchanged it for the smaller size cause the body of the jacket is large. The arms fit snugly so if you are planning on wearing it with sweaters I would go with a slightly larger size. I LOVE this jacket. Totally worth every penny!! Hope that helps!
