I was excited to learn about my ancestry, but this service left me thoroughly disappointed.Firstly, there’s no nuanced breakdown of ethnic groups, especially for those living in Russia. If you live in Russia, you’re simply categorized as “Russian” without any further distinction.I also discovered that my Ukrainian roots are not accurately pinpointed. The map just shows one enormous area stretching from the Czech Republic to Bulgaria, which hardly captures the specific nuances of my heritage.Additionally, some of the traits they analyze are just bizarre. For example, knowing the probability of being able to twist your tongue isn’t nearly as useful as insights into health predispositions like obesity, diabetes, or cancer.Lastly, the migration paths provided for my ancestors are extremely vague—just broad, generic directions that fail to tell the real story of where my family came from.Overall, I expected a more detailed and personalized genetic exploration, and unfortunately, this service falls short of delivering meaningful insights.
