About this report

This report reads your DNA and sorts every result into one of five plain-language groups, so you can see at a glance what deserves attention and what does not. Nothing here is a diagnosis. A flagged result means your genetics place you above or below the average person for that trait — a reason to ask a question, not a reason to worry.

What each result group means

Worth a conversation with your doctor
These came back with a higher genetic predisposition than most people. That is not a diagnosis — it means these are the ones worth raising at your next appointment.
Running above the typical range
Your genetics point to these sitting higher than average. Often useful to know, sometimes worth monitoring.
Running below the typical range
Your genetics point to these sitting lower than average. Same idea — context, not alarm.
Working in your favour
Good news. Your genetics look protective or better than average here.
In line with most people
Nothing unusual. These were tested and came back typical — worth having on record.

Your results at a glance

How to read this. A result being flagged does not mean you have a condition — it means your genetics put you above or below the average person for that trait. Of the 55 results here, 15 came back worth discussing with a clinician and 3 came back in your favour. Bring this document to your appointment.

What this package looks at

Nerve Health — Nerve health plays a vital role in overall well-being, affecting everything from movement and sensation to cognition and emotional balance. Genetics can significantly influence an individual's susceptibility to various nerve-related conditions, impacting both the peripheral and central

Pain — We all experience pain from time to time, from stubbing a toe to hurting our knee or having a migraine attack. What makes us all different is the amount of pain we experience and how we handle it. There are lots of reasons for that, one of which is your DNA!

Headaches & Migraines — Headaches and migraines are common issues that can significantly impact daily life, leading to discomfort, pain, and reduced productivity. While environmental factors such as stress, sleep patterns, and diet can trigger headaches, genetics also plays an essential role in determining an

What you can actually do

Statin-Induced Muscle PainMore likely
More likely to have statin-induced muscle pain based on 38 genetic variants we looked at
Your risk is greater than 90% of the population and lower than 10% of the population.

What this actually is

The exact mechanism by which statins cause muscle injury is not completely understood, but it is believed to be related to the depletion of coenzyme Q10, a key component in muscle energy production, or effects on muscle cell membranes and protein synthesis.

Risk factors for developing statin-induced myopathy include higher statin dosages, advanced age, female sex, smaller body frame, concurrent use of certain medications, and pre-existing conditions such as kidney disease.

Most patients see improvement in symptoms after discontinuation of the statin, but the condition necessitates careful balancing of the benefits of cholesterol lowering against the discomfort and potential harm of muscle symptoms.

What to do with this

Genetics is a predisposition, not a verdict. The single most useful thing you can do with this document is take it to a clinician and talk through the flagged findings — especially any that line up with symptoms you already have or conditions that run in your family. Nothing here changes: your DNA is the same at 60 as it is today, so this report does not expire.

Methodology

Genotyping was performed on DNA extracted from a buccal (cheek) swab using a genome-wide array. Results are derived from peer-reviewed genome-wide association data and, where applicable, published clinical guidelines. Each report was scored independently against its own reference set. Percentile figures describe where your result sits relative to a reference population.

Limitations

This is a laboratory-developed test. It has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Genotyping does not detect all variants in the genes assessed; the absence of a flagged result does not exclude risk. Predisposition is probabilistic and is modified by environment, lifestyle, ancestry and family history. Results must be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional and must not be used alone to diagnose, treat, or alter any medication regimen. Marrow does not recommend, prescribe, or dose any supplement or medication.

Nothing here changes: your DNA is the same at 60 as it is today, so this report does not expire.

Methodology

Genotyping was performed on DNA extracted from a buccal (cheek) swab using a genome-wide array. Results are derived from peer-reviewed genome-wide association data and, where applicable, published clinical guidelines. Each report was scored independently against its own reference set. Percentile figures describe where your result sits relative to a reference population.

Limitations

This is a laboratory-developed test. It has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Genotyping does not detect all variants in the genes assessed; the absence of a flagged result does not exclude risk. Predisposition is probabilistic and is modified by environment, lifestyle, ancestry and family history. Results must be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional and must not be used alone to diagnose, treat, or alter any medication regimen. Marrow does not recommend, prescribe, or dose any supplement or medication.

About this report

This report reads your DNA and sorts every result into one of five plain-language groups, so you can see at a glance what deserves attention and what does not. Nothing here is a diagnosis. A flagged result means your genetics place you above or below the average person for that trait — a reason to ask a question, not a reason to worry.

What each result group means

Worth a conversation with your doctor
These came back with a higher genetic predisposition than most people. That is not a diagnosis — it means these are the ones worth raising at your next appointment.
Running above the typical range
Your genetics point to these sitting higher than average. Often useful to know, sometimes worth monitoring.
Running below the typical range
Your genetics point to these sitting lower than average. Same idea — context, not alarm.
Working in your favour
Good news. Your genetics look protective or better than average here.
In line with most people

Your results at a glance

How to read this. A result being flagged does not mean you have a condition — it means your genetics put you above or below the average person for that trait. Of the 33 results here, 12 came back worth discussing with a clinician and 1 came back in your favour. Bring this document to your appointment.

What this package looks at

Pain — We all experience pain from time to time, from stubbing a toe to hurting our knee or having a migraine attack. What makes us all different is the amount of pain we experience and how we handle it. There are lots of reasons for that, one of which is your DNA!

What you can actually do

These are ordered by how closely they relate to your flagged results — not generic health advice. Marrow does not prescribe, dose, or tell you to take anything. Diet and lifestyle changes are listed first because they are yours to make. Anything you would swallow is listed separately, by name only, as something to raise with a clinician who knows your history and your medications.

More likely to have statin-induced muscle pain based on 38 genetic variants we looked at
Your risk is greater than 90% of the population and lower than 10% of the population.

What this actually is

The exact mechanism by which statins cause muscle injury is not completely understood, but it is believed to be related to the depletion of coenzyme Q10, a key component in muscle energy production, or effects on muscle cell membranes and protein synthesis.

Risk factors for developing statin-induced myopathy include higher statin dosages, advanced age, female sex, smaller body frame, concurrent use of certain medications, and pre-existing conditions such as kidney disease.

Most patients see improvement in symptoms after discontinuation of the statin, but the condition necessitates careful balancing of the benefits of cholesterol lowering against the discomfort and potential harm of muscle symptoms.

What to do with this

Genetics is a predisposition, not a verdict. The single most useful thing you can do with this document is take it to a clinician and talk through the flagged findings — especially any that line up with symptoms you already have or conditions that run in your family. Nothing here changes: your DNA is the same at 60 as it is today, so this report does not expire.

Methodology

Genotyping was performed on DNA extracted from a buccal (cheek) swab using a genome-wide array. Results are derived from peer-reviewed genome-wide association data and, where applicable, published clinical guidelines. Each report was scored independently against its own reference set. Percentile figures describe where your result sits relative to a reference population.

Limitations

This is a laboratory-developed test. It has not been cleared or approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Genotyping does not detect all variants in the genes assessed; the absence of a flagged result does not exclude risk. Predisposition is probabilistic and is modified by environment, lifestyle, ancestry and family history. Results must be interpreted by a qualified healthcare professional and must not be used alone to diagnose, treat, or alter any medication regimen. Marrow does not recommend, prescribe, or dose any supplement or medication.
