Very Interesting

I bought into this because I was adopted and knew some things about my birth mother and her background, but knew nothing regarding my father's background or any medical history. I am now 65 and having some medical issues that seem could be genetic. This would be great for others who are both considering having new family and those in my situation that actually have some more genetic knowledge and/or are seeking answers to background medical issues.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The results were more precise than other DNA sites. The results were more fully explained than most things I have read in the past.

My husband and I both used 23andMe. We were surprised that my husband had no Native American heritage. We discovered our ancestors were all from Northern Europe! Our maps could almost overlay each other! We have enjoyed this experience so much - we bought kits for both of our sets of parents.
I would recommend this to a friend!

My results were nonconclusive. The results I was given that I "Most likely" had were all false.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from 23andme.comBy Customer Care, December 14, 2016
Thank you for your feedback. Most human traits are complex, meaning they are not determined by a single factor. Even when we find genetic factors that have a large effect on a trait, they still explain only a portion of it. This means that we can only determine the likelihood of having that trait. That means there is still the chance of not having that trait.
Many other factors influence traits, including your ancestry, other genes, and other non-genetic factors. That’s why we also include a section in each report that talks about some of these other factors. The results are based only on specific genetic factors that we know about now, but our predictions may get better as we learn more.
