Save $30 on 23andMe DNA test kits thanks to this Amazon sale

Now that it’s 2019, it’s time to make some resolutions. If one of your goals for this year is to learn more about who you are and where you came from, a DNA kit can help. 

Learning more about your DNA can give you insight about your ancestry, health, and any hereditary illnesses so you can tackle the new year with a sense of self and a plan for your health.

In honor of the new year, Amazon has 23andMe’s DNA test kit — an ancestry and personal genetic service that you can do at home — on sale for $69.00, which is a $30 savings.

Normally priced at $99, 23andMe’s DNA test kit is easy-to-use and provides valuable information about your genetic makeup and ancestry. The company’s home kit includes more than 150 ancestry regions in the world, which is then broken down to just 0.1% to get a personalized and specific DNA road map of you and only you.

Here’s how it works: Just fill the included test tube with your saliva, send it back to 23andMe for testing, and you’ll get the results of your origins and ancestry within 6-8 weeks. You can learn more about yourself, like your ancestors’ migration patterns from more than 1,000 years ago and access to 23andMe’s extensive database to connect with people who share DNA with you. Who knows? You just might even discover you have a long lost half-sister who now lives in Timbuktu.

But don’t just take our word for it. Amazon customer V. Wood writes:

“Easy to use. Place a saliva sample in the provided vial, close, shake and mail. Register online and track your package and the progress. The results are very detailed and provide more than just your nationality. There are quite a few questionnaires that you can choose to complete online that will help them to see how different people share the same traits. The more information that you provide to them, the better that they can match you to different populations.”
