I was studying and buying supplements based on what was wrong with my parents. But my report came back with "red flags" that were things that went wrong with my grandparents. So I was wasting time, money and effort on supplements that were probably creating a toxic situation in my body and neglecting areas that desperately needed my attention. Fortunately, my company offers BOTH the test and the supplement customized to my test results. So as a young person I am already affecting my quality of life as a senior. It's almost like investing early into the 401ks! Hope this helps and I'd love to hear your feedback. Amber Rost Barry,

However, it really is an exciting opportunity as the author in the article you suggested said. Its up to all of us (doctors and patients) to make sure that teachable moment is realized.

First, there's gotta be some mark-up on the lab services. Second, the most valuable service companies can offer is personalized reports and other personalized interpretation and plans. Personalization, as Kevin Kelly <a href="http://www.eyeondna.com/2008/02/08/dna-quote-kevin-kelly/">says</a>, is the eventual aim.

I think I'll wait a year or two to have my genome sequenced so i can save some money to send the kids to college! I wonder what this will do to companies like Knome?
