Meet 23andMe

23andMe is a personal genetics service that turns a saliva sample into online reports about ancestry, inherited traits, and selected health-related genetic findings. Customers register a home collection kit, return their sample for laboratory analysis, and explore results through an online account. Ancestry tools show estimated geographic origins, trace maternal or paternal lineages where applicable, and connect users who opt into DNA relative matching.

The available reports depend on the service, membership, and country. Ancestry memberships add historical and family insights, while eligible health services include selected genetic health risk and carrier status reports. These reports can help users understand particular genetic findings, but they do not diagnose disease or measure overall disease risk. Medical decisions require appropriate clinical follow-up.
