That’s correct… 23andMe only hits common SNPs. I’d be also veru curious to hear of someones actual rubber-meets-the-road experience getting full sequencing done.
23andMe focuses on common SNPs and particular ones associated with disease. Whole genome sequencing is getting cheaper, right now it is close to $2,000. I’m not sure I want google to have my genome info though, lol.
Thanks for looking to reach out! I try to reply to every single email I get (really!), but sometimes it takes a little while or some messages just fall through the cracks, usually by accident.
I give a special increased priority to my supporters who message me through Patreon, so please consider making use of their messaging system by pledging a small amount to support my website.
Where would we get our genome sequenced in order to take advantage of this?
You can get your DNA Sequenced at 23andMe.com it costs about $99 US
I already did that, but that isn’t a full sequence and can you really upload a partial to this?

I was a bit disappointed they didn’t test some important ones like GSTM1. I would be really curious as to the result of some like that.
