Why a lab test

Research-grade analysis, not a basic consumer swab

To process your guides we need a sample so we can read the 1.8 million lines of DNA behind your personalized guidance. Our research-grade lab analysis is more comprehensive than others.

🧬

3× more variants

The IG DNA Test guides on three times the genetic variants of typical consumer genetic tests, giving your guides a deeper foundation.

🔬

Research-grade quality

Your sample is analyzed with a research-grade process that is more comprehensive than standard direct-to-consumer kits.

💊

One sample, every guide

A single test produces the DNA file behind all of your guides, so future guides build on the same data, no new sample required.
