Results dubious.

I bought this last Autumn. I performed the test and results came back to 98% European. My father swears up and down that he is 1/8th Cherokee, but it didn't even show up on the results. Not sure what to think about this.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from 23andme.comBy Customer Care, May 26, 2023
Thanks for your feedback. Your results from 23andMe can only show you what can be seen in your DNA. Sometimes, people with Indigenous American ancestry may not see it reflected in their DNA. It is not uncommon to lose all trace of Indigenous American DNA only a few generations after a full Indigenous American ancestor.

There has to be more to share. Is someone a niece or a 1/2 sister??? Please, you must know. Wayyyy too few absolutes. Feels like using a sideshow psychic.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This was a Christmas gift from my wife. I thought it would be good info for my own health and genogram work. Probably useful for my 9 sisters and brothers as well. Didn't realized just how far this could dig into my own health patterns.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Family Connections?

This product lacks in connecting cousins to a specific ancestor. For example: It can tell me that we have a third-great-grandparent in common, but cannot tell me which set of third-great-grandparents it is. How can I connect them to my family tree when we have no common names to connect to? I am disappointed in this part of the program.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Health info questioned

Bought this product several months ago mainly to see my heritage and ancestry. At the time I included the health portion in what I purchased and was required to fill out a questionnaire concerning my health. Turns out all the information I received back was basically everything I already knew because I already had those conditions and health problems. Didn't get any new information. I was pleased to see my ancestry and I would recommend buying that portion to my family and friends.
I would recommend this to a friend!
