I am so glad I did, it made me realized that we are all connected. That we are one world with only one nation. We would be more kind and caring for one another. It also made me want to learn more language ( I already know Portuguese, English, Spanish and Italian). Let's travel !

I didn't know who my biological father was. I sent for the 23andMe kit, sent it in and discovered who my bio father was. I've since been in contact with family members. This is amazing to me!

Awesome Experience

Really a fun experience. There were a few surprises in my ethnic background that I found totally fun. But more than tracking my family history the health portion was a blast. Somehow they knew I am not a deep sleeper, don't drink caffeine, maybe thinner than the avg person in my age group, have wavy hair, etc... It has been a very enjoyable experience. I have had several friends that have done the same package and we are having fun comparing our results.

I like finding out my background ethnicity some of which was surprising to me but I'm disappointed in the response I get from my distant relatives when I ask for more information so I can better understand our relationship.

I bought my kit in September of 2017. I was really surprised at the Neanderthal ancestry. Most of the results were correct except for the one which said I was less likely to sneeze at sunlight. I hope that soon the genetic markers will be found for tori palatini and polydactyly, both of which I have. Thanks!

My 2nd cousin had a college class project to determine whether he was a descendant of Genghis Khan, who is thought to have sired 0.5% of the total world's population by one measure. While he was not a Khan kid, it turned out that he also did not have the genetic makeup that would account for his mother (my first cousin) being 100% Korean as we expected. It caused quite a stir in our family. 2 yrs later, about 10 members of my immediate and extended family- 1st and 2nd cousins included, used 23 and me to determine that no one who we thought was 100% Korean was even much more than half Korean, tops. We even had a DNA party with about 25 or so friends who all took the test, to determine traits such as who was the most Neanderthal, the most mixed, most unusual/ unexpected, etc...
This was a great eye opener, and an amazing and fun journey. The release of the health reports a year or so later, was an even bigger plus, providing some confirmation of suspected issues, as well as some measure of comfort for others. I am fascinated to learn that a group of my maternal line's descendants comprise native American populations going down the Pacific coast to the tip of South America, and that I also have relatives all over the world. To me, 23 and me has shown how closely intertwined and related humanity is, and how easy it is to lose sight of our journey together. I would recommend this test highly to everyone, and especially to anyone who wants to know who they are, where they came from, and the connection of man across our small planet.

My mother was adopted and i didn't know who my father was. After years of wanting to participate in 23 and Me my grandmother bought 6 packages for our family to do together as a Christmas gift! She had adopted 3 children one of those children had me when she was young and then my grandmother adopted me!! So we all did these tests at thanksgiving in the hopes of getting results by Christmas. Mine took a bit longer than everyone else's but man what i gift i was given!!! My results listed a half brother that i didn't know existed!!! From here I would find not only 1 half brother but my father, another half brother, a half sister and my paternal grandparents!!!!! This doesn't even count the numerous uncles, cousins, and so much more!!! 23 and Me and my MawMaw gave me more than i could have possibly dreamed!! Now it's my turn to put in the work to get to know all of these wonderful people that have been gifted to me!!! I can't say thank you enough!

I did a 23andMe DNA test about a year after 23andMe started. I was interested in learning about my heritage and excited to find out what countries my ancestors originated from. Surprisingly, a couple years ago a half brother found me through his DNA matches. He had looked for his father his whole life. Sadly, he never got to meet his Dad since our father passed about two years before my brother found me. Thank you to 23andMe for providing this service of DNA testing.
