23andMe is one of the biggest players in the DNA testing industry. It has continued to offer DNA-personalized insights on ancestry and health predisposition for people from all over the world.
LifeDNA does not consider itself to be a competitor to 23andme.
Instead, while LifeDNA does provide DNA tests, we consider ourselves to be an extension to any existing DNA test. You may be amazed by the additional insights you’ll receive from an amazing 3rd party service.
In this article, we will answer all of your frequently asked questions about LifeDNA if you already have your existing 23andMe DNA test results.Â
There are tons of reports available in LifeDNA that 23andMe does not offer.Â
These include our Fitness Report (20+ traits), Vitamins & Supplements Report (30+ traits), Nutrition Report (20+ traits), Skincare Report (10+ traits), and our Wellness Report (20+ traits).
Again, we do not consider ourselves to be a competitor to 23andme.Â
However, If you haven’t taken a DNA test yet, it is important to take note of a few things:
LifeDNA offers reports for as low as $39 (if you have taken a DNA test).
Our DNA test kit is available for $199. This includes a 1-year subscription already included. Check out our Health Bundle offers to learn more.
In this table, you’ll be able to see how LifeDNA compares with 23andme in terms of the pricing of the reports, the benefits of the subscription, the number of reports available, and more.Â
This can further help you decide on whether LifeDNA is right for you as a 3rd party service to maximize your 23andMe DNA test results.Â
