This morning, I received the results of my “23 and Me” DNA lab analysis. The saliva-based test was given to me as a Christmas gift from my Mom and it includes an ancestry analysis, overall health composition, and…Neanderthal Ancestry?

 

Turns out, I have a higher than average percentile of Neanderthal DNA!

I will never look at myself in the mirror the same way again. Thanks, Dad. ;)

 

Other things I learned, far more obvious things, I am 100% European.

 

Still not sure if I want to look at the section about what diseases I have markers for….
