Frequently Asked Questions

If you don’t see what you need below, please contact us directly and we will help.

How do I order a DNA testing kit and how long does it take to arrive?

Ordering your DNA testing kit is simple and convenient. You can purchase the kit directly through our website by visiting the DNA Kits page. The ordering process is straightforward, and if you need any assistance, our customer support team is readily available to help.

Once your order is placed, we process it promptly to ensure a quick delivery. You can expect your kit to arrive at your doorstep within 72 hours. Each kit includes clear instructions to guide you through the sample collection process, making it easy to get started on your journey to personalized health insights.

What is the process for collecting my DNA sample(s) using the kit?

Our DNA testing kit is designed for ease of use, ensuring a hassle-free sample collection experience. Inside the kit, you’ll find detailed instructions on how to collect your DNA sample using a simple finger-prick method. This minimally invasive procedure allows us to gather over 850,000 SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) of your DNA—significantly more than the approximately 20,000 SNPs collected via saliva samples.

Additionally, the kit includes information on how to arrange for a secure, no-cost collection of your sample by our courier service. Once you’ve collected your sample, simply contact us to schedule the pickup at a time that is convenient for you. Our goal is to make the entire process as smooth and straightforward as possible.

How do my samples get to the lab and how long does it usually take?

After you’ve collected your DNA sample and scheduled a pickup, our reliable courier service will collect the sample from your specified location at no extra charge. Your sample is then securely transported to our SANAS-accredited laboratory, where it undergoes thorough analysis by our team of experts.

The testing process typically takes about 21 days from the time the lab receives your sample. During this period, our specialists analyze your genetic data to compile a comprehensive report. Once the analysis is complete, your results will be sent to you or your designated health practitioner, based on your preference. We ensure that all results are delivered confidentially and securely.

What genes can be tested and where are the results of the test sent?

Our advanced DNA testing analyzes over 850,000 SNPs, providing you with an in-depth understanding of your genetic makeup. This extensive analysis covers a wide range of genes related to health, nutrition, fitness, and skin, among others. We recommend starting with the DNAcore kit, which offers a broad overview of your genetic profile and serves as a foundation for future, more specialized tests.

Your test results are compiled into a detailed report that is sent confidentially to either your health practitioner or directly to you, depending on your preference. For the most beneficial experience, we highly recommend scheduling a one-hour online consultation with one of our accredited practitioners. They can help interpret your results and develop a personalized wellness plan tailored to your unique genetic profile. You can explore our full range of DNA kits here.

Can someone with medical experience help me understand the report?

Absolutely! We understand that genetic information can be complex and sometimes overwhelming. That’s why we offer professional guidance from our team of DNAlysis-accredited practitioners. Our experts include registered dietitians, nutritionists, geneticists, and medical doctors, all of whom are highly qualified to interpret your DNA test results.

During a personalized consultation, our practitioners will walk you through your report, explaining the significance of each finding in understandable terms. They will provide you with personalized insights and recommendations, helping you make informed decisions about your health and wellness. This collaborative approach ensures you get the most out of your DNA testing experience.

Is the testing done at an accredited lab (aka are the results accurate)?

Yes, all our DNA testing is conducted at a SANAS-accredited laboratory, ensuring the highest standards of accuracy and reliability. The finger-prick method used in our kits allows us to collect a vast amount of genetic data—over 850,000 SNPs—providing you with comprehensive and precise results.

To maintain the integrity of your sample, please ensure that the barcode on your sample kit matches the information on the submission form. Our lab follows stringent protocols for sample handling and analysis, so you can trust the accuracy of your results. If you prefer an alternative to the at-home finger-prick method, we can arrange for you to visit the nearest laboratory for sample collection.

Are these DNA testing kits safe for all ages (young kids, elderly, etc.)?

Yes, our DNA testing kits are safe and suitable for individuals of all ages—from young children to the elderly. The finger-prick method is minimally invasive and poses no significant risks, making it an ideal choice for anyone interested in gaining personalized genetic insights.

We take great care to ensure that our testing process is comfortable and accessible for everyone. If you have specific concerns about using the kit for very young children or elderly individuals, our customer support team is available to provide additional guidance and answer any questions you may have.

Can you help me choose the right DNA kit for a specific concern?

Certainly! We offer a variety of specialized DNA kits tailored to address different health and wellness areas, such as diet, skin health, and overall well-being. To help you select the most appropriate kit for your needs, we provide a complimentary 15-minute consultation with one of our knowledgeable staff members.

During this session, we can discuss your health goals and recommend the best products and services for you. If you’re new to DNA testing, we highly recommend starting with the DNAcore kit. This foundational test allows us to store your genetic information securely, so you can order additional kits in the future without needing to provide another sample.
