Have any of you had your DNA tested "for Ethnicity" ? I'm thinking of having that done (I'm into genealogy, so it ties into that interest). I've a few concerns/questions about it in general, though, before I turn my DNA over to .... cyberspace (the results are online, at least for one company I am considering). Here is their disclaimer:
Another question I have is comparing the companies that offer testing. Right now there is a sale on at least one of those companies. Maybe price will be my decision-making point. (Black Friday/Cyber Monday sales are in effect.)
I'm interested in seeing what Hawaiian component there is in some of my family.
I'm interested in trying to get the testing that is currently available done for some of the most senior of Kupuna in the family.
My son says they used to also offer health-related genetic testing, but the FDA banned that a few years ago. I wonder if that is back in any of the testing, so a bit more research for me to do on that.
DNA testing, anyone?
