Genetic Researchers have started to identify which genes affect the onset of lifestyle diseases. Thus, a Genetic Test will allow you to understand which diseases you are at genetic risk of developing in the future.
Of the Genes that are already mapped, it is known that each individual has a 0.1% difference in the sequence. Since the genes do not change during one’s lifetime, you need to only test once. You can make better lifestyle choices based on your risk profile.

Risk Assessment Genetic Testing only assesses the genetic risk, thus, it does not mean that one will develop the disease, and if preventive measure are incorporated early, the probability of prevention even in delaying the onset of disease.
Even though the test results is high risk, it does not mean that you will development the diease. If you are at high risk, changing your lifestyle through better diet and exercise, you increase the chances of not developing the disease.

The genetic testing technology used by us requires DNA in good quality. However, if too many germs, chemical substances, etc. contain the test sample collected by the customer, DNA damage is likely to occur and it may not be possible to obtain all the test results.
In such case, we may ask you to take the test sample again and we will set up this series of process as re-test.
If you got notified during re-test, is there something wrong?
The re-test is due to situations in which DNA necessary for analysis can not be extracted from the returned test sample because there is something wrong with the customer sample. Please collect the cells in the oral cavity according to the method instructed by our company and return the test sample.

Having a low "call rate" means that the DNA that we have collected from you previously is not enough to produce an accurate result for your ethnicity and ancestor migration. Even if you need to do a new test, we are happy to extend to you Generations for a special price. Please follow the link provided in the product page in the app.

Similar to the above scenario, this can happen if you have a low "call rate" for the genes that we analyze in order to produce your results for Genesis 2.0 and Myself 2.0.
