So I have done both tests...this one & 23&me. This test is BY FAR more detailed & contains WAY MORE INFORMATION!!! The ancestry information for instance...this test has 3 diff Russian groups, 6 diff Pakistan, 5 diff Chinese...and that's just what I noticed at a glance!
My 23&me test results were interesting, I did that test first, I had NO clue as to what 'mix' I am. But the results were really very generalized. This test was just amazing! VERY detailed & gives you information about the group of people found in your ancestry.
The results were similar to 23&me, but I found that 23&me had a lot of %'s noted in vast areas & then they would say 'DNA found, but not able to determine exactly which ethnic group'. That didn't happen with Tell me Gen! They tell you where your DNA comes from, LOVE IT!!! THANK YOU!!! 23&me does hook you up with relatives & Tell me Gen does not, but IT’S IN THE WORKS, YEAH!!!
I want to touch on the safety & security...TellmeGen is a testing company that is controlled by surgeons & other doctors. You tick on one box stating if you want your DNA to go on for scientific purposes, NO FINE PRINT, UNLIKE 23&ME! PLEASE GOOGLE THIS, it’s a serious consequence, especially if you ever plan on applying for life insurance, currently have life insurance or could effect health insurance! I would post links about recent sales 23&Me have done, but the main focus of this review is how beneficial TellmeGen is, bottom line, they are interested in the health of people & helping. I have personally spoken with the CEO of TellmeGen several times, he’s always been quick to answer my questions.
On to the drug results (6 pages)...this test will tell you how so many different drugs metabolize in your body! You can take this test with you to the dr & actually use it for future use, or look at what drugs you are on now & see if there is a better drug you could be on! That's actually pretty awesome! If you have cancer...there are a TON of cancer drugs listed, which I found to be really interesting & thought could actually be a life saver!
There was 3 pages of TRAITS!!! And they weren't just stupid nonsense traits either...Alcohol addiction, Caffeine & Anxiety, Drug Abuse, Memory, Gambling Behavior, Sex hormone regulation, Pain sensitivity, Stature...the list goes on & on!!! LOVED IT!!!
Inherited Conditions- 4 pages- These are diseases & such you could have inherited....Breast & Ovarian Cancers, Cystic Fibrosis, Gaucher disease, so many things I've never heard of, nor can pronounce, extremely detailed!
Complex Diseases- 7 PAGES!!!
It lists these in categories in which you are at high risk, low risk & typical risk.
There are SO MANY interesting & important diseases listed!!!
Heart Attack, Diabetes, Crohn's, Gout, Thyroid Cancer, Alcohol w/d Seizures, Bipolar Disorder, Schizophrenia, Periodontitis, Allergic Asthma, Psoriasis, Autism, Narcolepsy, NUMEROUS types of Breast Cancers, Parkinson's, Depression, Cataracts, Pancreatic Cancer...THERE'S SO MANY, I WISH I COULD LIST THEM ALL!!!
We have tested several family members b/c of serious illnesses, & b/c the medication information has proven to be so very important already!! We even tested my 1 y/o grandson. YES, the baby to see what it shows & also see what vaccinations he could have reactions to....or could possibly react to when given at the same time. I have found this test to be PRICELESS!!!
Do you have something going on that you or your Dr can’t figure out? Do you have cancer & you’re not responding well to the medication? Do you have cancer in your family? TAKE THIS TEST!!!
My husband was born with a congenital heart defect, NO SYMPTOMS! His brother got sick & they accidentally found the defective aortic valve in his heart. My husband was tested & he had it as well, THIS TEST SHOWED THAT HE WAS LIKELY BORN WITH IT!!! Simply amazing! Another example, my husband has these spots on his face & ear that hurt & won’t heal...the test showed pics & described the spots to a tee...skin cancer!
I could keep going about things we’ve discovered on all of us between physical problems to medication problems, honestly, you won’t truly believe it until you test yourself! We, luckily, found this test in time to get the skin cancer taken care of before it causes problems & can monitor other issues....I hope others can do the same...SECURELY!!!
I have included photos of test results, not from the same person for personal reasons, but look at what you get for your money & they are always adding more FOR FREE!!!
NO PASSPORT NEEDED TO DO THIS TEST FROM THE USA!
The test for the baby required proof from one of the parents, like a DL, stating their name, and something with the baby's name on it, my daughter in law used his birth card, or birth cert...I'm not sure which.
We got the pre-paid labels for UPS & send the kits in, very simple!

We perfectly understand your concern.
It is necessary to provide this documentation by law in Europe and the USA.
With respect to security, we have 3 security barriers.
1) The platform with the data are in the Microsoft cloud services. We have the security that Microsoft itself provides
2) An external company encrypts and monitors all connections to the platform. This company works for large logistics, telecommunications, etc. It works around the world.
3) Within the platform itself, in tellmeGen we have dissociated the genetic and personal data and encrypted this data. So if one part is obtained, the other can't be obtained.
*****
Since this is an optional test, I chose not to take the risk of connecting my son's papers with his genetic information, even with the layered security system they describe. Amazon was incredibly gracious and offered to refund the cost of the test even though we'd already opened it and started the process. Hopefully this will help others avoid the situation.
BUT... since I do not speak Spanish, live in the US, the followup consultation is focused to Spanish speakers with doctors / nutritionist, etc in Spain. The basic reports are great, the ancestor report is good, but to get really benefit, the average person needs interpretation and plans for "actionable" recommendations.
Further, I wanted to forward my DNA analysis to US based DNA services to get their reports" / consultations but they would not accept the data from other than the DNA sequencing companies that they had agreements with. It was not the format of the data that was the problem but "marketing" agreements they have with other US based companies (would not permit them to accept non-partner data).
No blaming or bad remarked about the product, but this may not be the best product for those in USA / English speaking customers. The popular based US products may not be as comprehensive as Tellmegen but if you can't convert the extra DNA information into usable "knowledge", what is the value....?
Suggestion to Tellmegen, if you are serious about selling to the US market, make arrangements with English speaking consultants (maybe based in US, but not required), establish data sharing agreements with some of the Health & diet DNA processing companies in the US, provide targeted actions section with suggestion on what "actions to take" with at least the key findings (beyond just defining what it means or warning signs)..
Top reviews from other countries


Il sito, le istruzioni ed i risultati, è tutto in inglese. Per me non è un problema ma credo possa esserlo per altri. Altra nota negativa: quasi 2 mesi di attes per i risultati.
I risultati sono una lista lunghissima di farmaci, malattie ereditarie, rischi che vi riguardano e per i quali è descritto di cosa si tratta e qual è la vostra posizione (alto rischio, tratto presente o meno, lento metabolizzatore, ecc..)
Il sito, devo dire, è fatto piuttosto male, lento e macchinoso da fruire. Navigare avanti e indietro tra lista risultati e dettagli è davvero lento e poco intuitivo, sicuramente da migliorare. E spesso ci si chiede... Sì, quindi?
Ho scoperto di avere una rarissima malattia ereditaria che non dà sintomi ma potrei trasmettere agli eredi. Nulla di serio. Anche un alto rischio di pressione alta, ma già il mio stile di vita è quanto di meglio possa fare per prevenirla.
Ah, ho origini in parte israeliane (Drusi)

Aunque es muy sencillo de entender e interpretar, recomiendo que si tiene pensado comprar cualquier test genético (no solo este) se informe del procedimiento de estudio y tenga claro que esto NO ES UNA PREDICCIÓN, es una lectura de tu DNA traducida en porcentajes (ahí entramos en temas de probabilidad), y no se tiene en cuenta el impacto ambiental (lo cual modifica la expresión de los genes) ni las variables epigenéticas. Con esto quiero decir que un alto porcentaje en una enfermedad concreta no tiene por qué ser indicativo de que la vaya a padecer, pero este test es útil a nivel preventivo.
Lo bueno de este test es que te permite bloquear cierta información si tienes miedo de conocerla porque crees que te puede afectar psicológicamente.
Recomendado 100%.

So first steps:
- order it from Amazon, arrives 2 days later, and you register your kit online. MAKE SURE you type in tellmegen.com/en to be on the English site. The "/en" is important, as I read reviews on the US Amazon that people had issues with the website being in Spanish.
- you spit into a tube. You can't have eaten anything, drank water, chewed gum, smoked, etc. for 30 minutes beforehand. Best time is to do it when you first wake up. This saliva sample can supposedly be stored at room temperature for sever months, so don't worry if you can't ship it immediately. But obviously the sooner the better
- you email tellmegen with your name and address and they send you shipping documents which you print off and bring with you to your nearest UPS.
- *it took 48 hours from the time I dropped it off at UPS to the time I received an email that tellmegen had received it in Spain. It then took 4 weeks and 5 days for the results to be posted
RESULTS:
- Complex diseases: these are things that are in your genes and may or may not become a problem depending on your environment/lifestyle etc. Some examples are restless leg syndrome, certain cancers, diabetes, alcoholism, etc. It tells you your risk percentage vs the average percentage (for someone with a similar demographic as you) to have these diseases based on your genes. 0.00x to 0.80x is considered low risk, 0.81x-1.20x is normal risk, and 1.21x or above is high risk. The manual says to perhaps take note and mention it to your doctor if you have a risk of 2x or greater. A GREAT thing is they also say how much research has been done into that area and how much is known about those genes and the their relation to the diseases. So you know to take the results with a grain of salt.
- Monogenic diseases: tons of diseases you have never heard of. It just tells you whether or not you carry the variant. If it is present in just 1 allele, it means you could pass it on to your offspring, and if it is present in 2 alleles, you may have the disease yourself.
- Drugs: tells you how you may react to a number of medications including antidepressants, anti psychotics, cancer drugs, etc. Some say whether you are a slow, normal, or fast, or ultrarapid metabolizer, which means it could predict if you will be more likely to experience side effects or possibly need a higher dose for effectiveness. I had similar testing done through my doctor and the results were fairly similar from what I can remember offhand, although it is harder to do further research into your genes with the way they have laid out the results, in my opinion.
- Traits: these are more fun and interesting things about you like if gambling behaviour is in your genes, eye colour, photic sneeze reflex etc. HERE is where I have a MAJOR complaint. For the eye colour, all 5 genes/areas they studied revealed that I only carry genes for blue eyes and should have blue eyes. Which I DO NOT. And from what I remember from biology class, eye colour is pretty much entirely based on genetics and so this part of the results should have been the most accurate, which makes me question all of the results, obviously.
- Ancestry: they said they would post it in a couple days so I don't have that info yet.
KEEP IN MIND - with any genetic testing - just because your genes may say one thing, it is not a perfect science and your environment and lifestyle can often greatly impact your likelihood of actually getting diseases, or having a medication work properly for you. While it is fun to have all this new information about yourself, it is not necessarily indicative of your future.
I say 4 stars because of the HUGE eye colour mistake, and the fact that their website could have a better design, especially the results portion, because it is annoying to have to reload from the beginning of the list every time you click to find out more information on your specific results, and then try to go back to the list.
