Dynamic DNA Labs provides DNA testing in three distinct areas: proactive health, family and ancestry, and personalized medicine.

Family and ancestry testing is what we usually think about when we read DNA testing. This includes three different DNA test products:

• Ancestry - analyzes three different types of DNA to reveal maternal and autosomal lineage, and paternal lineage for male patients.
• Paternity - DNA test to verify paternity. Although not court-admissible, the test is considered a reliable method to determine paternity.
• Siblingship - using microarray technology, this test helps determine whether you share familial bonds with another person.

Proactive health allows patients to examine their genetic traits with four separate tests:

• Nutrition - determines a proper diet and nutritional needs as well as food reactions.
• Fitness - identifies how you react to certain physical exercises and conditions.
• Skin - helps to develop a personalized skincare regimen.
• Personality - establishes how your genetic traits contribute to your thoughts and behaviors.

The Personalized medicine tests analyze your DNA using pharmacogenomics (PGx) to determine reactions to medications, and include:

• Pain management - predicts how you could potentially respond to certain medications.
• Cardiovascular health - analyzes how you will respond to cardiovascular health medication
• Mental health - predicts your response to mental health medications.
• Comprehensive - includes all previous tests plus additional medication insights.

Purchasing tests and getting results back is a straight-forward process that can be summarized in four steps.

Customers can place their orders through the Dynamic DNA Labs website. The company then sends the kit with free shipping, which arrives in about three to five days.

Once received, customers use the included cheek swab and send it to the company’s lab via the prepaid mailer.

The certified and accredited lab receives the samples and analyzes them.

Customers can check their results through the Dynamic DNA Labs online portal. Generally, these results are available within three weeks, though results might take longer due to Covid-19 delays.

Aside from the abovementioned proactive health, family/ancestry, and personalized medicine DNA tests available, Dynamic also offers a Cannabis DNA test that helps patients understand the hows and whys their bodies react to cannabis. This is meant to help patients choose the correct types and doses of medicinal marijuana.

The company also sells personalized products such as customizable DNA portraits of your genes and microscopic artwork as single pieces or as part of an item (such as mouse pads or coffee mugs).

The costs for Dynamic DNA Lab’s services will depend on the type of test being administered and the information trying to be determined.
