Every section of a ReadYourDNA report, each with one real result from a sample genome.
A report is a one-off analysis of the raw DNA file you upload. It has four parts, health traits, lifestyle traits, medications and carrier status, plus a variant explorer, a view of your chromosomes with a rarity figure, and an optional genome assistant. It opens on a dashboard that shows the strongest result of each part and the five databases every result is built from: the PGS Catalog, CPIC, ClinVar, dbSNP and gnomAD. It is delivered to your account, where it stays available at no further charge.
The examples below come from one sample genome, a raw file of 682,438 genotyped positions, run through the same analysis as every upload. Anyone can open the live version of this sample at readyourdna.com/demo, without an account.
102 polygenic scores in seven categories: Metabolism, Heart & Blood, Brain & Mind, Organs & Senses, Cancer, Immunity, and Bones & Skin. Among them Height, Chronotype, Vitamin D Levels, HDL Cholesterol, Grip Strength, Hair Color, Insomnia and Educational Attainment. Each score combines up to half a million DNA positions, built from the 1,699 published score files of the PGS Catalog.
A trait page shows where the genome sits among reference genomes as a percentile on a gauge from Very Low to Very High, the trait's heritability, the published scores behind it, the variants that contribute most with each one's share of the score, related traits, and an ancestry note that says which reference genomes the comparison used. For a trait linked to a disease, the page shows that comparison and nothing else: no diagnosis, no probability of illness.

85 traits read from one or a few DNA positions each, in nine groups: Food & Drink, Vitamins & Nutrients, Digestion & Tolerance, Body Quirks, Fitness & Movement, Taste & Smell, Hair, Skin & Eyes, Mind & Mood, and Ageing & Resilience. Among them caffeine clearance, lactose tolerance, muscle composition, bitter taste, earwax type, alcohol flush and sleep depth.
Every trait page shows the genotype and the outcome it points to, the positions behind it, a confidence score from 1 to 10 for how well those positions predict the trait, how common each outcome is among people, the studies by PubMed ID, when the variant was discovered, and one thing worth knowing about it.
Caffeine Clearance
Position
rs762551 in CYP1A2, genotype C/A
Clears caffeine at a middling pace, confidence 7 of 10
How common
49% of people clear caffeine quickly, 42% at a middling pace, 9% slowly

How 717 medications are processed, from 23 pharmacogenes called by PharmCAT, grouped as Heart & Blood, Brain & Mind, Metabolism, Immunity, Cancer, Organs & Senses and Bones & Skin. The overview sorts the medications by what the genes mean for each one, and a gene table lists every pharmacogene with its call and how many of its defining positions the file could read.
A medication page names the genes that handle the medicine, the guideline call from CPIC or DPWG, the evidence level, the outcomes that were studied with each gene and the PharmGKB studies behind them, and related medications. The guideline results also come as a one-page PDF to hand to a prescriber. The pages describe how a medicine tends to be processed; they carry no dose and never say to start, stop or change a medicine. That is a conversation with a doctor or pharmacist.
Gene
CYP2C19, called *1 / *24
Covers
18 medications, among them clopidogrel (Plavix), which this enzyme converts into its active form
Source
CPIC guideline, PharmGKB annotations
HEART & BLOOD
An antiplatelet that keeps blood from clotting.
May not work as well
Less of the active form gets made.
This drug arrives inactive. CYP2C19 has to convert it into the form that works. Yours runs slower than average, so less of the active form is produced from the same amount.
PUBLISHED GUIDELINE CPIC guideline · CYP2C19 DPWG guideline · CYP2C19
BRAIN & MIND
A tricyclic antidepressant, also widely used for nerve pain and to prevent migraine.
May affect you more strongly
It stays in your system longer.
Elavil works as it arrives, and your body also turns some of it into a second form that works too. CYP2C19 clears them both away. Yours runs slower than average, so the two together sit higher for longer than they would for most people.

Which of 3,321 inherited conditions from ClinVar the file carries a variant for, across 3,825 genes and 158,504 known variants. Every condition shows its genes, how much of its panel the file could read, which depends on the chip the file came from, and one of three outcomes: not detected, a plausible finding, or a confident finding. A finding names the variant, links it on ClinVar and points to a clinical laboratory for confirmation. The page also shows how the count of findings compares with other genomes: more than half of the reference genomes carry at least one, typically one.
Read
14,173 panel positions
Outcome
1,757 conditions not detected, 2 with a finding (1 confident, 1 plausible)
Compared
56% of reference genomes carry at least one finding; the typical count is 1

Nerve cells in the brain and spinal cord are progressively destroyed, leading to loss of motor skills, seizures, and vision loss in infancy.
27 variants · 1 Gene
5,002 annotated variants in ten categories, from Nutrition & Metabolism and Lifestyle, Fitness & Aging to Pharmacogenomics and Rare Genetic Disorders, sorted into 94 topics. The dashboard counts the file's variants by direction: protective, risk, neutral and variable, as the studies describe each form.
A variant page shows the genome's own genotype and a text for that genotype, written and corrected by hand, with what the studies found for each of the three forms. It also shows how common the genotype is, how often the variant occurs in African, East Asian, European, South Asian and Latin American populations in gnomAD, so a reader can compare their own form with the world, plus the gene's job, related variants in the same gene, the life stages it matters for, and the PubMed references.
Variant
rs4680 in COMT, chromosome 22; topic Stress and Focus
Genotype
G/A, the form 47% of people carry (32% carry G/G, 20% A/A)
Across populations
the A form is found in 44% of genomes worldwide: 52% European, 45% South Asian, 40% Latin American, 31% African, 27% East Asian
Evidence
102 publications
This file
4,310 of the catalog's variants read: 1,778 protective, 1,072 risk, 1,266 neutral, 194 variable
Folate Processing
NUTRITION & METABOLISM
Slightly Reduced Folate Processing Efficiency
Carrying one copy of the variant reduces MTHFR enzyme efficiency to about 65 percent. This can lead to slightly lower folate levels and a mild increase in homocysteine.
✗ Risk Open the variant page
Alcohol Sensitivity
BRAIN & NEUROLOGY
Faster Alcohol Breakdown
One copy of the fast-metabolizing allele converts alcohol to acetaldehyde more quickly, so acetaldehyde builds up sooner after a drink and flushing and discomfort tend to set in earlier.
✓ Protective Open the variant page
A karyotype draws the 23 chromosome pairs with every variant, polygenic score and carrier gene at its real position; clicking a chromosome opens it with the file's own variants, findings and scores mapped along it. The rarity figure counts how many of the genome's variants are rare, ranks that count among reference genomes of the same ancestry, and names the rarest variant the file carries.
Panel read
26,001 variants
Rare
225 of them; the rarest is carried by about 1 in 590 people
Rank
52.9th percentile among reference genomes
Paying accounts can turn on an AI chat that answers questions from the finished reports, up to 50 a day. It reads the reports, never the raw file, and it is off until the account turns it on. An example question: "Which of my medication results come from CYP2C19?"
No ancestry report and no relative matching. Ancestry is estimated only to pick the reference genomes a score is compared with.
No diagnosis, no prescription, no treatment advice and no dose. The pages explain what studies found in large groups of people.
No kit and no laboratory: the analysis reads a file you already own, from 23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, FamilyTreeDNA, Living DNA or a sequencing VCF.
No download of any data you did not upload yourself.
The sample genome is open at readyourdna.com/demo, every page of it, without an account. Starting is free, with 5 health and 10 lifestyle traits of your choice; what the full report costs and what the price covers is on the pricing page; how a file becomes these results is on the methodology page; who writes the pages and how they are checked is on the editorial standards page.
