Hear price dropped so shld i test my genome?

No: If you find out you have a terrible disease or genetic abnormality would it make you sleep better or worse? I feel some things are best left unknown or some will worry constantly and lead to more health problems. If you have a genetic problem in family and are planning kids may be good to know to prevent passing on to future kids! i control my risk factorswith diet, exercise, supplements, hormones.
