【from Tokyo】Genetic testing

in blurtlife •  4 years ago 

I received it by e-mail saying that the result of the genetic test was available. It's a service of a genetic analysis start-up company. The customer purchases the kit online, collects saliva, and mails the sample.

The service costs about $ 300 and I bought the kit for a slightly discounted amount. The period from sending the sample to getting the result was about one month. To see the results, you first need to spend about an hour answering questions on the web about your lifestyle and preferences.

The purpose of my application for this test is to know the facts. Genes do not determine everything. But if you know your basic information, you can change what you can. Also, if it cannot be changed, it may be possible to prepare for it.

According to the results, I have a low risk of genetically possible illness. This is a good point. However, I do not have the gene for longevity. Rather average or less. The average life expectancy of Japanese women is around 86 years, so even if it is said that life is 100 years, it may be good to know that my life expectancy is such a thing.

In addition to illness, this service also analyzes the ancestors of where your mother's ancestors came from and your physical characteristics. It is very interesting as my "information" because it also shows the ratio of it to all Japanese people.
The test results are saved, and if a new type of disease is discovered, the risk to it can be received as information.

Interesting. The instruction seems to be Japanese.
I hope the translation tool you use help enough to get the job done.

Thanks for your comment. This tool seems to be specialized for Japanese people. Each item shows how much your type is among the Japanese. I have noticed that there is diversity within the same race.

It is amazing to see what amount of information about us is stored in such small DNS threads. The "storage capacity" of DNS is incredibly high compared to today's computer hard drives. The blueprint of nature is truly interesting and worthy of attention.

Thank you. I agree with your opinion. This test is exactly what I know about my blueprints, and it feels a bit strange to know myself using the service. Yesterday, I received a new data, a notification of the risk of aggravation if I was infected with COVID19.

Oh no, the notification does not sound good. Please take good care of yourself to avoid the risk of an infection.

Thank you for your kindness! I live carefully, but I will continue to do so.
