I’ve already been told that I was expected to die and gather the family (that would have me) around. Now, 50 years later, the Doctors are all dead and I am typing this! 😂🎉
These genetic predispositions are often just worst case scenarios if you don't take care of yourself. My 94 year old aunt did a DNA test. We figured she had the golden genome because she looks awesome (barely any wrinkles) and is doing so well. Nope. She has a terrible genome. She's predisposed to pretty much everything and should've died fairly early in life. However, she lived a very healthy life.
You are right, none of us have totally “clean” genes. I believe that is is not only the bad genes we carry, it may also have to do more with the gene mutations we have.
Love It. She probably still stops to smell the Roses too, I bet. Sometimes people who just live their lives outlast others because they're not obsessed with themselves. Living a simple, humble life is the key to longevity.
But it would save you thousands in unnecessary medical getting information.. best to know earlier.. and get appropriate support.. and it opens a niche market for such insurance
My parents were both unwell but lived a relatively happy lives. Living to 92 and 88 with heart , cancer and diabetes. While I'm here I'll thank God for every day above the ground as they too did. Thanks for the information, very interesting.
@GMR, That makes sense,really. The more yrs. you live, the more illness and disease you will encounter. But you CAN beat cancers, and live with some long term illnesse.If you die young, you are more likely to just die from an accidental death.
Did a 23 and Me DNA test, here in 🇺🇸 and it costs about $160.00 that included the medical portion. Was enlightening. 😊 But remember life style choices can greatly influence future medical conditions.
@@virginiabify 23 and me are a scam company, they literally say on their privacy statement that they are guessing on the information they provide you. It's strictly for entertainment value and not medical advice., Family Tree DNA was one of the more reputable DNA centers. If the cancer is in early stages, I would eliminate sugar, start taking ivermectin. Brightwork Research has a wealth of information about Ivermectin and it's ability to activate the immune system as a form of immunotherapy.
You get your results and you are good for 100 years. You are so excited about your results that you step into the road without looking and get hit by a bus.
I had a DNA test done about 6 months ago to see what would help with my inflammation response because of my lupus. It went so in depth that it took me about 6 hours to get through the information. It drilled down so specifically and gave recommendations as to both lifestyle changes and supplements that would help (btw they have). Learned so much from that test. It made everything make sense. When my husband saw how much information I got from mine he had his done. His biggest concern was dementia as his mother passed from it. He did not carry the gene (thank goodness). It is absolutely worth the money. Wish we would have done it earlier. Even if you get the testing done and it says you don't have the breast cancer gene, still continue to get your nanograms. My daughter passed away from triple negative breast cancer, when doing her DNA testing to see if she was a candidate for gene therapy she was told it was a type of cancer that isn't genetic.
Hi! Your comment about the depth of the test you did intrigues me! I have lupus as well and I think a test like this would provide me with some great information. Can I ask which test you did specifically? Thank you!
I found out who my bio-parents were six yrs. ago. They both died at 57 yrs. I had two heart attacks at 57 and two of my bio brothers died at 57 from heart attacks. I am 70 now and have been chronically ill ever since. I don't want to know anymore, I feel bad enough.
I just started watching and what comes to my mind is that in addition to genetics is your lifestyle. It's important what/how much you eat and drink, your sleep hygiene, physical, emotional and mental stress, one's daily activities, exercise, the air you breath and so forth. Best of luck to everyone.
Our personal DNA is the one single thing we have that is uniquely ours, and it blows me away to think that the majority of people will eagerly hand theirs over to basically anyone who asks.
it's a scam anyways. They can't tell you jack sh1t by "looking into your DNA" they don't even know how "mental diseases" work or how to cure cancer etc... it's just another big pharma con to get people to take "preventive teratments" that will likely get them sick.
I wouldn't mind knowing what may kill me, but I do not want to know when. Knowing what may kill me gives me a change to change my habits, but knowing my final date would be just dreadful unless that date was 200 years from now.
Or, would knowing open a pandora's box of stress and hypochondria\paranoia that leads to more disease? Epigenetics says you can turn parts of your DNA blueprint on and off depending on the proteins and enzymes that surround the cells... Environmentally including built architecture and the oxidative properties and materials with their other 'quirks' that are still being discovered, it is impossible to determine the outcome. Taking a test like this, if available prior to the asbestos situation (as one example out of tens of thousands) would have been futile, alongside the myriad of newer contentious materials and chemicals being developed and that have been developed since asbestos that are yet to reveal their multi-generational cause and effects. Also, miracles DO happen. Plenty of people can attest to this with personal experience, including myself.
I am reminded of a scene from the X-Files where an agent sent to protect a medium who could predict how someone was going to die just by interacting with them, asked "Are smokes going to kill me?" the medium said "No." So the agent, smilingly went outside to light up a cig and was killed by the people sent to kidnap the medium. That's basically how I see life. For all you know this may be your last day, would you want to live it worrying about when you are gonna die or would you rather live it like it could be your last?
That's spot on and it happened to me. Busy being healthy had a medical treatment I wish id mot and now so sick can't work. Something always bites you on the asse when you least expect it ✌
My Dad had a heart attack at just 34. He had just got home from a 6 week rugby tour in Canada and was the fittest person I knew. Luckily he was in a 'private' hospital having shoulder surgery at the time. He spent 3 months in hospital. Unfortunately the hospital was in London, 7 hours drive from where we live in Wales (uk). My fear was it would happen to me! I'm 45 now, but during my 30's having given birth to my youngest children was I feared that I wouldn't be around to see them grow up. But now I would like to know if my children and grandchildren have inherited my conditions. I lost my sight in my left eye from glaucoma at 36. My body is breaking down due to EDS, POTS, OA and RA. I need knee, hip replacements on both sides. I have already had one shoulder replacement and need another for the other side. I also have a brain tumour (I am receiving chemotherapy atm) and a cerebral aneurysm. I would also like to know if I might have a gene making me predisposed for all these conditions and if they are all linked.
Actually, sometimes it can save your life as well. Found out I had a mutation that causes me not to process certain anesthetics. So they now know what NOT to give me for any surgeries.
I cant take pain killers unless they are over the counter. Do you think i have the same mutation? I am going to get my test done next month to make sure.
Yes these are good things. For much of my life, Dentists are forever surprised how much (whatever the pain blocker is) just how much I need and how quickly is dissipates. Same with localized numbing for minor surgeries. They even ask a bit incredulous "No, really, you can feel this?" and yes I can. So, there is something going on and IF they can find that kind of mutation you're right it could save lives if a person has some strange processing that could be a life-altering thing too.
A friend of mine had a DNA test done and it said that’d he die of a heart attack at 52. He was 52, been married for 30 yrs with 3 kids aged 28, 19, and 9 yrs old, 2 boys and 1 girl. The last of results said that he wasn’t the father of any of his children, that he was sterile. I miss my friend dearly!!
Yes, I intuitively know that I will never have colon cancer or breast cancer. I have never had a mammogram nor will I. But there is lineage of heart issues on my father's side of the family. I really want to do this test and it's really cool because it helps you go in the directions to know what to look for in to make those Corrections for your life, In your older years. There's even a gene that let you know, you don't like to exercise 😊
I also knew I would have breast cancer and heart problems, and my son would have hemophilia. With no reason to know these things. All of them happened. I understand the intuitive diagnosis.
If none of you have seen it, go watch 'Gattaca'. Its a movie about a future where at birth, doctors can diagnose how you will die, if you will be fat, bald, short, strong, weak, allergic, you name it. Any faults you may have are told to your parents right on the spot and watch how quick the parents in that film lose interest in their first born son who is said will die young of heart disease so they genetically opt to have another child who is "manufactured" during gestation to be "perfect". Its a movie worth watching about not letting the odds dictate you life and dreams of the future you want.
@@lenseyparker5396 Not sure, I have never streamed to be honest, I use to rent dvds when I saw this years ago and catch it on tv now and again. Should be somewhere online to be seen.
14 yrs gone by since this aired. The future is now. Scott and Layne are still alive and going strong! As per comment above. This technology is what WOULD scare you to death instead!!
Just make sure you can handle the results. I tested 14 years ago and have Huntingtons Disease. Thankfully my CAG number is low which means I develop it later in life. I am later in life 55 and had to quit my teaching job. It is a hard road.
Take care of yourself, don’t smoke, don’t drink, eat healthy, get good rest, relax and try not to stress out over every little thing …. You’ll be fine. 👍🏻😊 but we’ll all die from SOMETHING eventually !
Sounds boring..😊I do all the opposite..and thanks god I am very healthy never been sick only sometimes a little fluw for 3 days ...when I was living in Germany..sins I ife in Marbella Spain I don't get any fluw et all ...and I am 60 .😂and happy ...all sicknesses com from a unhappy spirit 😊
I would have concerns with what "Big Brother" could do with the information, what insurance companies could do with the information, and the security of the information. I would suspect that national adversaries could use the information for some diabolical purpose, too.
Yes can't say the information wouldn't 'slip' into the wrong hands for the right price. Makes me think of cookies and viruses online that send you ads related to what you view online. Would you suddenly get life insurance ads, cancer, and drug ads related to the DNA information gained by the test.. or it could just be I'm really sarcastic and cynical about mankind.
I had a DVT in my leg. My PCP recognized the symptoms and sent me to the ER. Turns out I have a genetic blood clotting disorder from one parent ( don’t know which one ). I very well could have died from a blood clot. Both my sister and Mom died at a young age. My Mom from cardiovascular disease, my sister unknown. Did they have this genetic mutation? Could have knowing this extended their life. If yes, my daughter could have had a grandmother she never knew.
My oldest son passed away in 2017 from a brain aneurysm. He was 24. I doubt this test would be able to tell someone that 35years down the road someone will die from a blood clot. I guess its good in a way because you can maybe prolong the inevitable.
I was able to finally find out what I have because my daughter was genetically tested to determine what was going on with her, thankfully we have an answer but now we need to find a Dr who knows what it is and how to treat it
The main issue here is epigenetics. Certain genes will get turned on or off depending upon environmental conditions, stressors, and exposures. So you cannot say that having a gene for something means you will necessarily get the condition for many issues, and you also cannot say that not having a gene will stop it from happening if environmental factors then subsequently alter things. Parents genes in their eggs and sperm will actually alter depending upon their life experiences and trauma experienced. Same goes with a fetuses genes being altered depending upon what stressors or good things mom is experiencing during pregnancy. Look into the studies on epigenetics and trauma and studies done on mice with epigenetics.
Virtually all of it has to do with your diet and if you are living in the proper environment for your skin color. People within families tend to all eat the same way and live in the same type of areas
Doesn't sound like they told them anything. Exercise, watch what you eat, lose weight...that's what everyone needs to do anyway. Sounds to me like you will just be out 400 dollars!
Omg. It's so true AND there's a questionnaire! lol It's like calling a medium on the phone and they ASK you if someone close to you passed away and come up with letters that are the most commonly used letters in the alphabet. I worked at a cubicle having to answer questions pretending to be one of the fortune tellers, mediums, past life readers...it's so rediculous.
Of course these results on life expectancy don’t take into account shark attacks, grizzly bear attacks, hobo attacks, car crashes, homicidal clowns, packs of wolves, gangs of randy teenagers, parkour classes, non-homicidal clowns, mimes, crimes, the new Indiana Jones movie or the upcoming breakfast menu from Arby’s.
Years ago I read a study that was sponsored by an insurance company to find the most commonly occurring children's diseases. It was found that most children were afflicted with whatever diseases were covered by their insurance plan.
I like the idea of this test, because you can tell your doctor what to screen for that isn't standard. The worry is that if you don't have national medical coverage, you could be denied health insurance because of "pre-existing conditions." I'm so grateful I live in a country where I don't have to worry about that, and that doctors appreciate having as much extra info as they can get. I can't wait until they offer these tests as part of a standard diagnostic, because right now you still need to pay quite a bit for them, and not everyone can afford it. When gene therapy becomes more mainstream and affordable, it's really going to revolutionize the world.
Please investigate fenbendazole as well as ivermectin...doesn't hurt to do both actually. I've been fighting Morgellons for a decade and it took me on a long journey learning all I could. Also Two Feathers....free consultation on the phone Best wishes ❤ Miracles happen
I've had my genome sequenced several times, including twice the full genome. I have to know everything! I have predispositions for DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) and lung cancer. Lung cancer took out my grandfather at age 67. If I'd been a sedentary obese smoker all these years, I likely wouldn't be here. Turns out I never smoked a single cigarette and have always been physically active with a 22 BMI. If I'd gotten my genome info as a young man, I'd have known in advance to stay active and to never ever smoke. Learn good things too - for example, I'd have known I get to keep my hair for life, etc..
What a great hairdo! Very attractive and sharp. Scary about knowing life expectancy. Insurance, employers and others will have a field day knowing this info about DNA testing for longevity.
Important for adopted ppl with no health info. It is interesting the ppl who want to know + those who don't. I want to know + would take precautions that I am able to take.
Fear does not exist unless you make it your reality. Replace fear with faith and you’ll forever be healthy. The mind is extremely powerful and you create your own reality with it.
When were these tests done? When was this recorded? When did it originally air? Did that test say '09 as in 2009? (The package that the red head wrote that date on.) Or did I read it wrong?
We are all going to die anyway, you can try to eat good, live stress free, exercise, and do the most important thing, tell people you love them and be kind. Life is a gift, and I have taken care of many ill people and can also say death is a gift too. Giving DNA to any company seems like a terrible idea for so many reasons. I just watched a video where they are testing the stuff that goes into wastewater treatment facilities and found someone with a different strain of COVID and got it down to what neighborhood they live in and what building they work at, so were asking the local people if anyone met those qualifications because they wanted to do some testing and collect some data...... YIKES!
Wow this is so scary I have a daughter she’s 6 I think if I did this I would constantly cry because maybe if I did and I was told I would die soon oh no.. I can’t I’ll just leave it in gods hands!! She goin to start 1st grade this winter I’m n my 40s.. I want to be happy and watch my daughter grow not be sad!!
In the USA Life Insurance companies will gather this information and customize policies for new clients that exclude coverage for any condition a person might be at risk for!
I probably won't live to see it, but I am waiting for an amazing breakthrough in the treatment of mental illnesses. Especially since the US tends to ignore the problem.
This is a very interesting subject. I have always known, just a knowingness, how I am going to greet this world. Some kind of strangeness the rest don't? Just to add. I don't know when....
Michael Fox says that after raising over a billion all they have found is a a way to know at a young age if they will get Parkinsons. This is the same thing.
It appears this video was created over 14 years ago. At 1:30, you see the test package being hand-dated to (depending on date format used) either May 3, 2009, or 5 March 2009
I have a 48 year old life expectancy and would not have known it if it wasn’t for Whole Exome Sequencing dna testing. This should be done on ALL babies not just for suspected Down Syndrome babies, but everyone!!! It saves lives! The technology is here so there is no excuse to not do it. I had to find out after the fact of when my health already blew up, I was dying from a rare vascular disease. You should know before that happens not because that happens.
I dont think its scary at all, as they implied in the begining. Even if one has the risk of heart desease or cancer they can take appropriate measures or frequece check up to catch & destroy the bad cells in advance !! & someone without any health risk might die from an accident. So its a great technology that should be taken advantage of.
I’ve already been told that I was expected to die and gather the family (that would have me) around. Now, 50 years later, the Doctors are all dead and I am typing this! 😂🎉

Its a movie worth watching about not letting the odds dictate you life and dreams of the future you want.
Where can I see thiz
@@lenseyparker5396 Not sure, I have never streamed to be honest, I use to rent dvds when I saw this years ago and catch it on tv now and again. Should be somewhere online to be seen.
I' love to know what happened to those three after more than 10 years. I hope they are still enjoying good health.
2023 DNA testing...
14 yrs gone by since this aired. The future is now. Scott and Layne are still alive and going strong!
As per comment above. This technology is what WOULD scare you to death instead!!
Just make sure you can handle the results. I tested 14 years ago and have Huntingtons Disease. Thankfully my CAG number is low which means I develop it later in life. I am later in life 55 and had to quit my teaching job. It is a hard road.
Take care of yourself, don’t smoke, don’t drink, eat healthy, get good rest, relax and try not to stress out over every little thing …. You’ll be fine. 👍🏻😊 but we’ll all die from SOMETHING eventually !
Sounds boring..😊I do all the opposite..and thanks god I am very healthy never been sick only sometimes a little fluw for 3 days ...when I was living in Germany..sins I ife in Marbella Spain I don't get any fluw et all ...and I am 60 .😂and happy ...all sicknesses com from a unhappy spirit 😊
I eat healthy too and be active 🎉
@@estebanvanleeuwenbommkam-nx2nt well 60 is still youngish.
And I live a very NON boring life. I’m 57 and I’ve enjoyed every day !
I would have concerns with what "Big Brother" could do with the information, what insurance companies could do with the information, and the security of the information. I would suspect that national adversaries could use the information for some diabolical purpose, too.
Exactly!
Yes can't say the information wouldn't 'slip' into the wrong hands for the right price. Makes me think of cookies and viruses online that send you ads related to what you view online. Would you suddenly get life insurance ads, cancer, and drug ads related to the DNA information gained by the test.. or it could just be I'm really sarcastic and cynical about mankind.
Like what already happens with those "genealogy" genetic that so many fall for.
Expect they ready have it when most people sent there covid test of to the lab 😂
Exactly
I love her hair like that. I love her with shorter hair. And no I wouldn't want to know when I'm dying! This is truly fascinating.
I had a DVT in my leg. My PCP recognized the symptoms and sent me to the ER. Turns out I have a genetic blood clotting disorder from one parent ( don’t know which one ). I very well could have died from a blood clot. Both my sister and Mom died at a young age. My Mom from cardiovascular disease, my sister unknown. Did they have this genetic mutation? Could have knowing this extended their life. If yes, my daughter could have had a grandmother she never knew.
You & your family should absolutely aschew all vaccines for cv's to avoid the clots.
Your more at risk, for a clot, after vaccine. I’m talking from experience. I have antithrombin 3 deficiency, nobody in my family has it.
check out Wim hoff cold water therapy
antiphospholipid syndrome?
@@Hartleymolly where's the hit squad
My oldest son passed away in 2017 from a brain aneurysm. He was 24. I doubt this test would be able to tell someone that 35years down the road someone will die from a blood clot. I guess its good in a way because you can maybe prolong the inevitable.
Sometimes the Knowing kills you quicker. Nevertheless, to each their own
"If they're good we party, if they're bad we party and if they're real bad we get a second opinion" - love ya work Scotty!
The funny thing is when you are dead you won't even know it...
Awesome test if it really works
I was able to finally find out what I have because my daughter was genetically tested to determine what was going on with her, thankfully we have an answer but now we need to find a Dr who knows what it is and how to treat it
The main issue here is epigenetics. Certain genes will get turned on or off depending upon environmental conditions, stressors, and exposures. So you cannot say that having a gene for something means you will necessarily get the condition for many issues, and you also cannot say that not having a gene will stop it from happening if environmental factors then subsequently alter things. Parents genes in their eggs and sperm will actually alter depending upon their life experiences and trauma experienced. Same goes with a fetuses genes being altered depending upon what stressors or good things mom is experiencing during pregnancy. Look into the studies on epigenetics and trauma and studies done on mice with epigenetics.
Well stated!
Excelente point here!
Virtually all of it has to do with your diet and if you are living in the proper environment for your skin color. People within families tend to all eat the same way and live in the same type of areas
Channeling Bruce Lipton
Doesn't sound like they told them anything. Exercise, watch what you eat, lose weight...that's what everyone needs to do anyway. Sounds to me like you will just be out 400 dollars!
Omg. It's so true AND there's a questionnaire! lol
It's like calling a medium on the phone and they ASK you if someone close to you passed away and come up with letters that are the most commonly used letters in the alphabet. I worked at a cubicle having to answer questions pretending to be one of the fortune tellers, mediums, past life readers...it's so rediculous.
Lol- 💯 percent agree with you.
Yes, I want to know!
I heard nothing in this report about the “when” of dying, so why include it in the title?
Because hyperbole sells documentaries? !
Clickbait
Gotta make it sound way cooler than it actually is. They can't even answer the how.
This is Very Interesting
Of course these results on life expectancy don’t take into account shark attacks, grizzly bear attacks, hobo attacks, car crashes, homicidal clowns, packs of wolves, gangs of randy teenagers, parkour classes, non-homicidal clowns, mimes, crimes, the new Indiana Jones movie or the upcoming breakfast menu from Arby’s.
Plane crashes too.
Also banana peals
Years ago I read a study that was sponsored by an insurance company to find the most commonly occurring children's diseases.
It was found that most children were afflicted with whatever diseases were covered by their insurance plan.
How convenient 😆
I like the idea of this test, because you can tell your doctor what to screen for that isn't standard. The worry is that if you don't have national medical coverage, you could be denied health insurance because of "pre-existing conditions." I'm so grateful I live in a country where I don't have to worry about that, and that doctors appreciate having as much extra info as they can get. I can't wait until they offer these tests as part of a standard diagnostic, because right now you still need to pay quite a bit for them, and not everyone can afford it. When gene therapy becomes more mainstream and affordable, it's really going to revolutionize the world.
Thank you for this info….
In NY where can I chk pls…
Can anyone pls tell me…..
This will be a gift to insurance companies. Doesn’t bode well.
Scott has to be one of the most adorable and lovable human beings to ever exist. What a DOLLBABY!!!
The cake I'm presently stuffing into my face says that I've got an elevated risk of running out of treats by the end of the week!
😂
That dude is the effin' grim reaper !!
Wow! It can even predict shark attacks that might kill you too. Impressive.
👊🏼💥🦈DUDE!😅🤣😂
I don't use these emoji things but had to with your comment which is the F-ing BEST!
The best comment 😂😂 Thank you for the laugh 😂😂
😅
My fiance died suddenly a month before our wedding.
I have terminal cancer. Not sure I'd of wanted to know in advance that they'll find it too late or prevent it 🤔
Please investigate fenbendazole as well as ivermectin...doesn't hurt to do both actually.
I've been fighting Morgellons for a decade and it took me on a long journey learning all I could.
Also Two Feathers....free consultation on the phone
Best wishes ❤
Miracles happen
Im sorry for you ❤
Praying for you Sharon.
😢❤🙏🙏🙏🙏
Wooooow
Back in '09
I've had my genome sequenced several times, including twice the full genome. I have to know everything! I have predispositions for DVT (Deep Vein Thrombosis) and lung cancer. Lung cancer took out my grandfather at age 67. If I'd been a sedentary obese smoker all these years, I likely wouldn't be here. Turns out I never smoked a single cigarette and have always been physically active with a 22 BMI. If I'd gotten my genome info as a young man, I'd have known in advance to stay active and to never ever smoke. Learn good things too - for example, I'd have known I get to keep my hair for life, etc..
I'm extremely surprised they're allowing comments on a "60 Minutes Australia" video.
Only God will know when you will die
Yes I would like to know
I don't care as long as I DO die; I wouldn't like to be left behind
I also fear what the government my do with all that personal info.
Fascinating
What a great hairdo! Very attractive and sharp. Scary about knowing life expectancy. Insurance, employers and others will have a field day knowing this info about DNA testing for longevity.
Wow, Peter Green’s Albatross!
Important for adopted ppl with no health info. It is interesting the ppl who want to know + those who don't. I want to know + would take precautions that I am able to take.
Fear does not exist unless you make it your reality. Replace fear with faith and you’ll forever be healthy. The mind is extremely powerful and you create your own reality with it.
Comments allowed? Wow😮
I know! They have been doing it randomly on different videos for last month or so. I like it!
This was 14 yrs ago??
When were these tests done? When was this recorded? When did it originally air? Did that test say '09 as in 2009? (The package that the red head wrote that date on.) Or did I read it wrong?
You read correctly.
Mind you , these tests are NOT regulated about sharing you personal data.
And when they need someone with your kind of exact DNA they already know where you live
This is scary but phenomenal
If pharmaceutical companies knew what percentage of people have what illnesses than they could focus research and development in those areas.
They already do, but only the ones that will make them money, I had to research that in school.
Politicians and big pharma already know….
Would help if they weren't businesses.
good point!
Love when she wrote on the envelope SCAM, 2:04
We are all going to die anyway, you can try to eat good, live stress free, exercise, and do the most important thing, tell people you love them and be kind. Life is a gift, and I have taken care of many ill people and can also say death is a gift too. Giving DNA to any company seems like a terrible idea for so many reasons. I just watched a video where they are testing the stuff that goes into wastewater treatment facilities and found someone with a different strain of COVID and got it down to what neighborhood they live in and what building they work at, so were asking the local people if anyone met those qualifications because they wanted to do some testing and collect some data...... YIKES!
Wow this is so scary I have a daughter she’s 6 I think if I did this I would constantly cry because maybe if I did and I was told I would die soon oh no.. I can’t I’ll just leave it in gods hands!! She goin to start 1st grade this winter I’m n my 40s.. I want to be happy and watch my daughter grow not be sad!!
In the USA Life Insurance companies will gather this information and customize policies for new clients that exclude coverage for any condition a person might be at risk for!
@1:38 “if they’re good, we party. If they’re bad, we party”. I love it!!! Only way to think
Only God knows when he will call us home and in what way.
I’ll go with SCIENCE
😂
You right only God knows and people have to start believing in God
@@mck1234 No. Religion is the reason why many things are like they are.
The first step to fixing a problem is to know about it.
Where can you get that test in Australia? I would love to do it
Wow cool. Thanks
Love you ❤
So many reasons to never ever give your DNA...
I would leave it up to god as he has given us a birth date and a death date we can’t prevent it
I wish they revealed what test they used. I can’t find anything like this on Google.
I probably won't live to see it, but I am waiting for an amazing breakthrough in the treatment of mental illnesses. Especially since the US tends to ignore the problem.
Absolutely. The only country in the world that is supposed to be advanced, plus other countries still consider it taboo and that of the devil
There already is! It's called child psychotherapy!
@@josiemainecoon if so than why isn't it considered successful and why isn't it being used
Exactly 💯
Gee... That comment wasn't vague at all !
You took the shot, I saved you a precious hour.
I’m Australian. Live in Vietnam. I’m 58 years old. WHERE CAN I BUY THIS TEST? What’s it actually called? What company is reputable?
TiA.
I have trust issues and don't believe this data would be safe after sending it off
Because you have the “don’t trust anyone” gene.
Good to know that
there's still hope to
live a better life.
Thanks for that info. ❤❤❤❤❤
This is a very interesting subject. I have always known, just a knowingness, how I am going to greet this world. Some kind of strangeness the rest don't? Just to add. I don't know when....
What?
Michael Fox says that after raising over a billion all they have found is a a way to know at a young age if they will get Parkinsons. This is the same thing.
If this were free to all, imagine the preventative measures that could be taken. 🤔
This product wouldn't exist without someone trying to make money. Fortune Teller industry is getting desperate for gullible people.
Someone else who wants free stuff. Will it ever end? Sheesh.
It appears this video was created over 14 years ago.
At 1:30, you see the test package being hand-dated to (depending on date format used) either May 3, 2009, or 5 March 2009
I have a 48 year old life expectancy and would not have known it if it wasn’t for Whole Exome Sequencing dna testing. This should be done on ALL babies not just for suspected Down Syndrome babies, but everyone!!! It saves lives! The technology is here so there is no excuse to not do it. I had to find out after the fact of when my health already blew up, I was dying from a rare vascular disease. You should know before that happens not because that happens.
*How does it save lives if everyone dies?*
@@NinjaDildoShow because if you know you have a genetic risk then you can take better care of yourself. Watch the show
@@NinjaDildoShow 🙄 brat
No thanks, you choose for yourself.
everyone dies, NOT SO SCARY.
I would take it
Where is this test available??? Where do I buy it??? I want it!!!
23andMe do health reports. This is an old documentary so it’s been around for ages now!
Would love to see a follow up
I dont think its scary at all, as they implied in the begining. Even if one has the risk of heart desease or cancer they can take appropriate measures or frequece check up to catch & destroy the bad cells in advance !! & someone without any health risk might die from an accident. So its a great technology that should be taken advantage of.
It's one of the worst things you can learn about yourself.
WHAT IF THE DISEASE IS NOT CURABLE?
Can you live with knowing it all along?
