TL;DR: Discover your family history with the Well-Being and Ancestry Kit from Living DNA for $149, a 16% savings as of April 1.


National DNA Day is coming up in less than a month and there’s no better time to learn about your family’s history and genetic makeup. We’ll take any excuse to celebrate at this point, right? And what better way to get in the spirit than this Well-Being and Ancestry Kit from Living DNA, which will help uncover all you’ve ever wanted to know – and then some. Hey, pair your DNA reveal with your favorite brew or can of La Croix, and you’ve got yourself a party.

Living DNA’s Well-Being and Ancestry Kit brings you all the benefits of a typical ancestry report, plus deep DNA details, and a comprehensive well-being report with actionable insights based on your DNA. You’ll be able to explore the countries and sub-regional breakdown of your ancestors from over the past 1,000 years and even delve into extended ancestry exploring 80,000 years ago through today. 

Beyond ancestry, you’ll discover the genetic variants that impact your lifestyle. The well-being report documents things like how your body metabolizes vitamins and minerals, your tolerance for lactose, and your risk for certain genetic conditions like celiac disease or diabetes, and even your immune health. And rather than simply telling you the risks, it also provides actionable ways you can stay as healthy as possible and have a better quality of life.

Here’s how it works: once you receive the Living DNA kit, you’ll take a basic DNA mouth swab. Cover that sucker in your saliva, pop it back into the tube, and ship it off using the free return bag. Within six to eight weeks, you’ll get your results and can start learning everything about yourself you’ve always wanted to know – from what foods provide you with the nutrients you need to ways to wind down after exercise. 

Usually $179, you can grab the kit on sale for just $149. Order yours today and give National DNA Day your all this year.
