This one document contains 3 complete genetic reports. Each was scored on its own, then combined here so you can read everything in one place. Every result further down is labelled with the report it came from.
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.
Sleep — At one point or another, we’ve all tossed and turned in bed, desperately trying to get some much needed rest. Trouble sleeping can lead to chronic tiredness, irritability, difficulty concentrating, and a general lack of energy [R].
Fatigue — Sluggish, can’t think straight, and tired most of the day? Or is it just at certain times? Fatigue is a normal part of life, but it can also be a serious health issue. Chronic fatigue is one of those things that is easy to brush off, because, “Hey! Everyone gets tired.” However, chronic fatigue is a
Mood & Mental Health — Mental health and mood regulation are influenced by a combination of environmental factors and genetics. Recent advances in genetic research have unveiled how specific genes and biomarkers may predispose individuals to various mental health conditions, mood disorders, and

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.
Use an airflow device, such as a continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) machine, every night during sleep.

If you have symptoms, talk to a healthcare professional.
About 1% of people may develop an eating disorder at some point in their life.
Binge eating can be associated with: Psychological issues: Low self-esteem, body dissatisfaction, and significant stress can trigger binge eating.
Biological factors: Genetic mutations may affect hunger and satiety, through alterations in brain chemistry that can predispose individuals to eating disorders.
Social and cultural factors: Dysfunctional family dynamics, professions and activities that focus on appearance and dieting, and traumatic situations such as bullying or abuse can increase the risk of BED.
Key Takeaways: Brain fog is a common symptom of chronic fatigue syndrome.
It manifests as memory problems, difficulty focusing, jumbled or hazy thoughts, and confusion.
Risk factors include stress, sleep problems, air pollution, smoking, and your genetics.
Chronic or excessive feelings of guilt can be particularly debilitating, leading to a well-documented decline in psychological well-being.
It can manifest in physical symptoms such as insomnia, loss of appetite, or gastrointestinal distress due to the close connection between mental and physical health.
In some cases, persistent guilt may also contribute to the development of mental health conditions such as depression, anxiety disorders, and compulsive behaviors.
Factors that might increase the risk of developing BPD include: Childhood abandonment, neglect, or abuse A family history of BPD or other mental health disorders Brain abnormalities, particularly in regions related to emotion regulation, impulsivity, and aggression Neurochemical imbalances in the brain Genetics There is evidence suggesting that genetics plays a role in BPD development.
