Genes for Good
Hey guys i wanted to share an awesome free way to get your DNA tested! The process is a bit of a pain but I think it will be worth it in the end.
once you finish the tests it will have you give them your address and they send you a spit kit. once you send it back it takes a long time to get your results because there are so many people already ahead of you. It took me 3 months to get my results and honestly i was very disappointed.. BUT! you can download your data and upload it into the website https://www.gedmatch.com also for free and they will break it down for you and you will have so much info! I am currently waiting on my code to download my data so i still do not know what mine is.. all Genes for good showed me is that i'm European.
If you have any questions about genes for good or want me to post my results once i get the code leave a comment down below! https://apps.facebook.com/genesforgood
