We have started to do some genetic testing and I even had my mom and maternal grandparents willing to be tested along with my husband. We found some underlying predisposition thyroid issues and certain vitamin deficiencies. They even stated to me that when these results come in, not to panic, that it is a predisposition not a certainty. Lifestyle can have a lot to do with the end result, if you eat healthy and supplement for vitamins, and exercise that you’re less likely to suffer from these issues in the future. I think it is parallel to the nurture vs nature argument.
I loved “The Lost Family”. A story about how genetic testing can help you find your roots but it can open a bunch of cans of worms too. One families story that was interspersed throughout the book ended with an accidental baby swap in a 1930s era hospital ward. Insane stories.
