Fluoxetine is a prescription drug used to treat depression, panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bulimia, and a severe form of premenstrual syndrome. Fluoxetine may improve your mood, sleep, appetite, and energy level and may help restore your interest in daily living. It may also decrease fear, anxiety, unwanted thoughts, and the number of panic attacks. It may also reduce the urge to perform repeated tasks (compulsions such as hand-washing, counting, and checking) that interfere with daily living. Fluoxetine may lessen premenstrual symptoms such as irritability, increased appetite, and depression. It may decrease binging and purging behaviors in bulimia.

Did I miss anything? Do you have any suggestions or comments regarding the programs listed above? Feel free to let me know in the comments below!
.
All I can say Blaine is “thanks.” I’m aware of some of these and make use of them but boy do I have work to do today.
Glad you found the list helpful Tom! It’s amazing all the things we can do with our raw data. Let me know which you try!

Theres also. Atheltigen and diygenomics. The first one tells u about your body as related to training and inuries. The second cks for a host of diseases.
Please add http://www.xcode.in to your list of sites. Xcode performs a saliva-based Genetic DNA Test and Genome Analysis. The genetic test empowers physicians, wellness professionals and individuals with the most validated, detaled diet reports, menu plans etc, that improves human health and quality of life.
I want to add that they have now launched their Ancestry test too. They are the only global company to do this for the South Asian population. They are also soon to roll out tests for allergies and detox analysis.
I found an interesting blog on their site. it compares different companies using 23andme raw data. https://www.xcode.in/dna-and-health/10-useful-sites-getting-23andme-ancestry-com-family-tree-dna-raw-data
After reading this I am overwhelmed. I had a DNA done with Ancestry and am waiting on results from 23 and me for my youngest adult son and myself.
Pat you can actually use Livewello’s Gene App for both 23andMe and Ancestry DNA Raw Data. In fact Livewello generates health reports from Raw Data issued by almost any personal genetics lab in the world including: 23andMe, AncestryDNA, Gene By Gene, National Geographic, BioCore, FamilyTreeDNA. For a 1- time fee of $19:95, users keep their accounts for life and get free App updates.
The App will give users their Health Report for 600,000 SNPs including those that research has directly correlated to certain diseases. Then, it attaches 12 resources for learning to each Gene. Each of these resources is designed to suit different learning styles. The Livewello Gene App
comes with:
A free search-able Gene Library with unlimited access to hundreds of unique free Health Reports users can install: https://livewello.com/snps/library
A free search-able Health Conditions tool that gives users unlimited Gene Reports based on their health issues: https://livewello.com/gwas

I paid the $19.95 for livewello and it looks like I now need a paid subscription to view more than 80% of the results. very disappointed
I just looked at livewello and it does explain what is included and what/why there are subscriptions reports for a fee. This information is found at Health Reports Tool under the Genetics tab on the homepage.
I think the info provided for $20 might be worth it since it sounds like they are providing you the information that was not processed through 23andme. Ie ALZ. “As long as a SNP has an rsID and Minor Allele, LiveWello will generate a gene report for you. The reason for this feature is that people should really have all the information about ALL the genes in their raw data not just some of them. “
Pat – don’t be overwhelmed! These tools and sites are all optional, and you don’t need to use them to gain plenty of information about your ancestry from your results.
Thanks for the list, but one correction: DNAMatch4iPad is not free.
I’m not that much of a internet reader to be honest but your blogs really
nice, keep it up! I’ll go ahead and bookmark your site to come back later.
Cheers

This is professional microarray raw data analysis software program, so be warned, only those with REALLY deep pockets will be able to afford it. However, the page does have a link to free trial software. I have not downloaded the free trial, because it requires registration, and “Orginization” is a required field. This company might choose to exclude individual users. Should anyone, acting as an individual and not as an orgizational representative, sucessfully download and use this trial, please report your impressions. I have looked at the company website, and read their brochures. This software promises one click, ease of use, and the report presentation and variety are truely amazing. A good read.
http://scistore.cambridgesoft.com/ScistoreDiscountPricing.aspx
The above link will take you to a page displaying the products that are on sale, during the current month. The reason I did not try to DL the trial is that my own raw data is not yet available. With the price as high as it is, I am pretty sure that the trial will be very time-limited, and I don’t want to risk wasting a one-shot trial, until I can analyze my own data. I assume that the trial will also have some abilities disabled (like actually printing results), but as long as the analysis functions work and the results are displayed, a screenshot will be just fine.

Hello, this weekend is pleasant in favor of me, because this occasion i am reading this impressive educational article here at my home.
WOW thank you! I want to purchase a 23andMe DNA test soon, and am trying to learn as much as possible about how and where to aim the raw data so I can use it to interpret toward figuring out many of my own health issues. I have met w such drama from many people who insist this is not possible and that 23+Me must have been selling erroneous information all this time. Isn’t the DNA data they sell the precise same data that any other company or lab sell me? I do get that they are being prohibited from offering too much ‘interpretation’ as a selling tactic, but their methods/tech/product are still scientifically real and valid, correct?
…and thank you again for this clear article, I found this through a Search on DuckDuckGo

The Livewello Gene Variance App which is available at https://livewello.com/23andMe offers users a lot more than just a 300 SNP Variance Report in the article. Specifically, the Livewello SNP Sandbox Tool and the SNP Template Library.
This is a summary description that of those particular features: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IrRpSqjVjPylUZ8bJvndF9u69YpiukfZvSXVUEvrT6E/edit?usp=sharing
I’m in search for tools like promethease to look on pharmacogenomics. I have my snp’s and full genome. Ca
can someone help to find these tools?
I used Nutrahacker and confirmed that I have a problem with myacin class antibiotics including streptomycin and neomycin, and this is most likely the cause of my hearing loss, starting with neomycin ear drops as a child. The test is expensive ($149) but for someone who found out through running my 23andme results through the Sterling’s App and found out I have a problem metabolizing and detoxifying most medications, it is cheap considering how much hearing aids and doctor visits cost and the harm I have suffered by using medications and medical and food additives that I do not metabolize and detoxify-tolerate. It is worth this amount to to me prevent the harm done to me by the chemicals I found out I do not tolerate.
Hi! Which SNPs could you tell this from? I think this might be the similar case for me. I know I have some degree of MTHFR mutation and also lost my hearing due to antibiotics from ear infections as a baby. It certainly would be great to know as much information as possible! Hearing aids and doctors visits are definitely not fun and I definitely want to avoid as much damage as possible!!! Thanks!!!
I actually just used Sterling’s App to find out that I am +/+ for the Neomycin SNP. I really hope in the future that all babies are gene tested as soon as they’re born so that doctors know what to prescribe and how to treat different issues.
http://www.nutrahacker.com gives nutritional recommendations for 265 genetic polymorphisms for $37, with a shortened free version that details methylation and detoxification genes.
Hi there, its fastidious article on the topic of media print,
we all know media is a great source of facts.
Please could you add http://www.dnafit.com to your list of sites. We provide detaled diet reports, menu plans etc and more if you have done your 23andMe already.
My sister advisable I’ll this way internet site. He or she used to be absolutely perfect. This create genuinely manufactured our day. People can not think about simply the fact that bunch time frame I had put together spent for this info! Thank you!
My buddy encouraged We would quite possibly such as this web-site. He or she once was 100 % proper. This specific set up definitely produced my personal morning. You should not contemplate the amount of period I’d wasted with this facts! Appreciate it!
Nice post. I was checking constantly this blog and
I am impressed! Very useful info specially the last part 🙂 I care for such information a lot.
I was seeking this certain information for a long time.
Thank you and best of luck.
I want to use my raw data to find out everything I possibly can about medical history, disease markers, etc. What is the best company (app, website, software, whatever) out there for this? Thanks..
You should try http://www.impute.me then. That’s the most comprehensive for medical data

Why is it that the 23&me data is so widely used and Ancestry data so little? I’ve done the Ancestry one and really don’t want to pay for yet another one but I’m limited in the tools that are available for analysis.
JENN,
Google ancestry to 23andme converter
A quick search brought up this site:
http://www.y-str.org/2013/06/autosomal-dna-converter.html
Thanks for finally writing about >What Else Can I Do With
My DNA Test Results? – The Genetic Genealogist <Loved it!
I have to thank you for the efforts you have put in writing
this website. I’m hoping to check out the same high-grade content from you later on as well.
In truth, your creative writing abilities has inspired me to get my own, personal site now 😉
I saw the post for Nutrihacker.com above, and I went to the site. The free analysis was interesting, so I looked farther into the options. My concern with the site is when it came time to enter credit card data, there is simply a pop up with no mention of security of my information. There is no “https” visible, no means to pay via PayPal or Amazon checkout, only with your credit card. I’d avoid entering that data until this is fixed, if it ever is.
If you have MTHFR, here’s a site that is associated with Dr. Ben Lynch and analyzes 23andme raw data: http://mthfrsupport.com
Dr Lynch has a new test now….http://go.strategene.org/genetic-analysis/
Hi. I had two 23andme failed tests – not enough DNA in my saliva!! I was doing the test mainly for health reasons so got my test done through genebygene.com and have been able to successfully download my raw data to livewello. But, although genebygene is a parent company of Family Tree DNA and uses the same technology, Family Tree DNA won’t accept my raw data from them – I would have to pay to have another gene test done to access any ancestry information. Does anyone know a company that would let me download my raw data from genebygene so I can get something similar to 23andme or ancestry.com?
Thanks
I noticed that you are having problems with the DNA testing on a number of sites. I used https://musclegenes.com/ and got a very quick response and a level of service from them.
I hope this helps?
Dave
I am really enjoying to read your article it is too good and it is so interesting and i am glad to get to know all these informational things.I like it too much…I also deal in different different applications i am so happy to be here and you can also visit to get more lifestyle apps…
Oh my goodness! Amazing article dude! Thanks, However I am encountering issues with your RSS.
I don’t understand the reason why I can’t join it. Is there anybody getting similar RSS problems?
Anyone that knows the solution can you kindly respond?
Thanx!!
Maybe I don’t get it, but LiveWello is just an awful site for a non-medical user. It gives you a very detailed report that is very difficult to understand by a layman like me. I guess if you are a researcher it would be great, but I feel like it was a waste of money for me. It just don’t know how to use it.
Promethease on the other hand was much easier to understand and helpful. It simplified each item and then linked to the detailed studies/reports. It was also a lot cheaper and seemed to have all of the same data that LiveWello had. It just doesn’t look as “polished” as LiveWello, but you can’t judge a book by its cover.
For a basic user just wanting to see how their DNA relates to their health I would not waste my money with LiveWello, but would go with Promethease.
Thanks, this was helpful, I will skip this company/service. I was leery to start as their website is in Nigeria – and required a CC…you cannont use PayPay or a pre-paid card. Caveat Emptor.
I was wondering if someone could check and see if SNPTips works anymore.
It might just be my computer, but there is no option to upload 23 and me results to Eupedia or SNPTips.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I got my own and my partners DNA profile through 23andme. I then managed to get an additional report from NutraHacker – which was really useful (the Complete Gene Mutation Report). HOWEVER, I can’t seem to get this report from NutraHacker for my partner; it keeps bringing up my report again (we’re both registered under my name on the 23andme website). Any ideas of what to do?
Is there a free Neanderthal percentage calculator for an Ancestry.com DNA file?
Yes. See: http://www.y-str.org/2014/12/neanderthal-calculator.html
I heard on a podcast that 23andme’s data captures telomere length, and that it is in the raw data. Anyone know how to recover that?
Blaine, Thank you for your thoroughly useful blog – the best Genetic Genealogy blog I’ve yet found.
I discovered your blog as soon as I began doing some armchair research (on my iPad) to find out more about DNA and Genealogy. My college-age kids knew that I have been doing Genealogy for our extended family, in my spare time, for over a decade. So, they gave me a 23andMe kit for my birthday, and I began voraciously reading everything I could find to get up-to-speed on this subject. As soon as I got my results from 23andMe (which took about five weeks) I ran it thru Promethease.com and then spent a few dozen hours reading even more.
I have just built an extended family tree website with several sections on DNA and Genetic Genealogy, and have cited links to several of your awesome blog posts.
I look forward to learning more and sharing it with my extended family, on my new website and my new blog.
http://genealogy.fanucci.us/blog
Thank you George! And I look forward to reading more at your blog! Best of luck!
I have been trying to get an ethnicity DNA test done through ancestry.com since the end of Dec. I just found out today that my 3rd test failed again and I had to order another new test. My test fails at the genome phase every time. I understand there is a small percentage of people that don’t shed enough cells to be tested. Any ideas on how I can enhance my chances of getting a good test?
You have provided invaluable tools to help me with 23andme.
However, can you please advise me on how I can download the DNA data from genebase.com for use by FTDNA?
Thank you…………LB
I’m wondering if you have worked with “Genebase” ? It’s a company based in Canada. I had my mtDNA done there and received my Haplogroup of T2b from them.
“tools for wringing every last bit of information out of your raw data, and maximizing the cost of your DNA test.”
Any tips on how I can maximize the value of my DNA test, versus it’s cost?
🙂
Hi
you can generate SNPedia links from your 23andMe raw data with this new service (of course for free): https://snpedialinks.org
Mike
My favorite tool for interpreting raw data for health and fitness is DNA Doctor, which is the only tool I know which is available as android and IOS app. the website is http://www.biostatushealth.com/dnadoctor/
There is one another worth to try; http://www.genoomy.com, coupon code; REDDIT1.
You upload Your genome from 23andme and informations about SNPs are colored and described for You. There is an option to filter or segregate by different values (p-value, OR etc.)
Is there anything for MYHERITAGE.COM and RAW text file data?
I have the RAW file from ancestry, but want to use it in my MYHeritage.com family tree. Is this possible?
BB
You mean raw data from genome test? If You send it to [email protected] we can try put in into genoomy.com and send You results. Greeds
My heritage is finally offering free matching with uploads from ancestry. Already uploaded mine- still waiting- they are sending out emails when software (?) is ready. 🙂
An additional free tool that I find invaluable is Genome Mate Pro. You can find it here: http://genomemate.org/
Incredible article!!
Project Infinome offers a free genomic search engine that links your 23andMe data to millions of research papers on the genes you care about. Check it out.
http://www.infino.me/genetics
Don’t know if it’s been mentioned but I’ve been very impressed with Livewello’s new Health Reports App for Medications and Nutrition: https://livewello.com/genetics/health-reports
They’ve put this out and I think it explains better all the tools in their Gene App: https://docs.google.com/a/biomedprofile.com/document/d/1QLHOuaevVxgucHY5Ppe8cEG1DsM5d8ZV2ed80ICnABM/edit?usp=sharing
Hello! Genomapp is a new app (iOS and Android) that analyzes your 23andMe genetic test to give you the maximum information of your DNA.
http://genomapp.com/download/
When you submit your raw data file to Genomapp you obtain a report which associates your genotype with a list of conditions. The report contains different categories such as complex diseases (cancer, Alzheimer, Parkinson…), monogenic diseases, inherited conditions, drugs response and traits.
Genomapp features a demo mode (no registration required) that allows users to fully test the app for free. The reports are available for less than 5 euro.
You can see some screenshots in this video:

How about an update on this list, e.g. I just noticed YFull and wondered what it is about?
Natural DNA Solutions (www.naturaldnasolutions.com) offers the the only comprehensive genetic report that 1. Covers 1400 genes. 2.. Lists homozygous and heterozygous SNPs with their functional description so the doctor/patient does not to look them up. 3. Suggests testing and lifestyle solutions for optimizing your genetic potential. 4. Prioritizes SNPs that are the most-likely source of health problems.

I have raw dna from Gene for Good on Facebook. No site will allow me to upload and compare my dna with those on their site. If you figure out away please let me know. 🙂
You can use GFG data with promethease and Livewello, genetic geanie seems to have changed their program somehow and results don’t show right, GFG staff do answer fb and email questions fairly well too
Thanks for this helpful list!
Also, if people don’t want to pay for the original 23andme test, the Genes for Good study offers similar information through a spit test. However, you do have to complete a certain number of surveys first and be willing to have your (de-indentified) data used for reseach. https://genesforgood.sph.umich.edu/
So glad you passed on this information. I will try Genes for Good.
I obtaine DNA from a wax tissue sample from my father who passed some five years ago. A friend who works in a DNA lab obtained the DNA and we put it in a saliva kit, using a benign medium – but it was refused by Ancestry.com. I have the data file but they and 23andMe will not accept “third-party DNA results”.
Any advice where I can send the iDat or genotype files to be uploaded so I can obtain his results? We celebrated when we got beautiful DNA from this formalin wax sample never imagining that the hard part would be getting the results uploaded to a database.
codegen.eu is a great free site. LIVEWELLO sucks because after you pay $19.99 they only give you a small amount of information and ask you to pay another $5 per month for full access to your information and report. The site is full of people asking for health advice based on their genes and nobody at the helm providing answers to the questions. I told them I was disappointed that they gave very little information for the price I paid and they refused to cancel my account and give me a refund. You can get the same information and more for FREE via the other websites above.
codegen is free and has tons of data, but it is poorly organized. Like drinking from a fire hose.
How do you save your Codegen report?
If you think IMPUTE2 and similar tools are too complicated (they are), you can also just go to http://www.impute.me and have it done auto-magically (plus several cutting-edge analysis tools available)
Thanks for this list. I’m always looking for new ways I can use my 23andMe raw data to learn more.
One resource that’s missing from your list is an online holistic wellness company called Elevated Health Solutions. The website says that the owner of the business is certified as a clinical nutri-genomics expert. I sent her my Raw Data because I was worried about some of my SNP’s and mutations. She helped me to understand what each SNP meant and how to address the ones that could be helped. The report and suggestions she made to me have changed my quality of life. I feel like my old self again, which for me is incredible since I haven’t felt “well” for about 10 years now. What I’m happiest about is now the headaches and migraines that I used to suffer from daily for years occur only about once or twice a month now. I’m sure not everyone will have as great an experience with it as me, but I believe that it’s worth checking out.

and with a name like ‘hacker’ in it, not good optics…
how much did she charge aka rate for that level of help?
Great article! You should add the free genetics tool from Found My Fitness. It is like Promethease but also provides applicable health tips based off your personal genetics.

I think it’s useful to have a number of resources for converting DNA raw data into useful health information. The problem is that when a report focuses too narrowly, say for instance only on MTHFR or “Alzheimer’s genes”, or detoxification pathways, then the patient misses a significant amount of important information related to their health.
In addition, if the report only lists SNPs and doesn’t discuss lifestyle fixes such as nutrition, supplements, detoxification, and activity, then we’re missing an opportunity to optimize genetic/enzyme function. Right now the field is littered with companies that are potentially hurting patients by not presenting a comprehensive picture. It’s analogous to the old days when we only reported total cholesterol and not LDL, HDL, VLDL, etc. Knowing the whole scope of genetic presentation allows for a much more accurate and individualized treatment plan.
The only service offering comprehensive genetic health reports and treatment options is Natural DNA Solutions.
HAS THIS INFO CHANGED WITH THE NEW CHIP 23ANDME OFFERS FOR THEIR REPORTS IN 2016? WILL THIS BE UPDATED?
I have done 23andme and used several sites to analyze my data getting so much info. I would like to try some of the sites listed here but how do I know which sites do not sell my data or divulge my identity or private results and information?
Want to get some extra mileage out of your 23andMe data? Try DNA based dating!
DNA Romance is online dating based on your SNPs, they accept 23andMe data so you don’t need a second DNA test http://www.dnaromance.com
DNA.land is cool, they also will reformat your file to 23&me, so you can do more.
From my experience of utilizing DNA in my office over the past 3 years, I find it troublesome how many doctors and patients are relying on a limited number of genes, most commonly methylation. We are made up of a complex network of genes that produce proteins and enzymes. Methylation, for example, does not work alone. it is effected by protein production, trans-sulfuration, vitamin B12, toxic metals, and many other factors. So, when you focus so narrowly, you’re bound to miss important health factors. Natural DNA Solutions (www.naturaldnasolutions.com) develops a genetic health report based on 1400 genes, including a description of gene function, and treatment options for optimizing gene function – and therefor optimizing health.

“Naturopathy or naturopathic medicine is a form of pseudoscientific, alternative medicine that employs an array of practices branded as “natural”, “non-invasive”, and as promoting “self-healing.” The ideology and methods of naturopathy are based on vitalism and self-healing, rather than evidence-based medicine. Naturopathic practitioners generally recommend against modern medical practices, including but not limited to medical testing, drugs, vaccinations, and surgery. Instead, study and practice are focused on unscientific notions, often leading naturopathic doctors to diagnoses and treatments that have no factual merit.
Naturopathic medicine is considered by the medical profession to be ineffective and possibly harmful, raising ethical issues about its practice. In addition to accusations from the medical community, such as the American Cancer Society, naturopaths and naturopathic doctors have repeatedly been accused of being charlatans and practicing quackery. Over the years, many practitioners of naturopathic medicine have been found criminally liable in the courts of law around the world. In some countries, it is a criminal offense for naturopaths and naturopathic doctors to label themselves as medical professionals.
Naturopathic doctors are actively pushing for more recognition in the U.S. and Canada.”
couple friends are working on a social media app that uses genetic traits to connect people – for those interested in more entertaining uses of your data, I think they’re still accepting beta testers @ vrntapp.com
Has anyone used DNA Tribes?(http://www.dnatribes.com/)
If so what do you think about this service?
Haven’t used it. Ancestry only. No health information that I could see.
The advantage of 23andme and sometimes Ancestry.com is that third-party genetic health report providers use their raw data to generate a health report.
For instance, http://www.naturalDNASolutions.com takes 23andme and Ancestry.com raw data and turns it into a 140+ page health report including actions you can take to improve your gene expression.

Genomate Pro is a great tool for working with atDNA
You should http://www.impute.me as well…. It seems like the most comprehensive health info from genetics.
Sorry, there are no measures of dispersion — the yields don’t come from sampling but from comparing the total cotton harvest to the estimates for total acres planted to cotton.I fully agree, it’s hard to draw conclusions from the yield figures, except obvious ones like the ones I drew for A.P.:yields going down is ugly the rise in yields does not correspond to the spread of Bt cotton (it started 8 years before Bt cotton became popular)

*Now accepting raw DNA data from AncestryDNA, 23andMe, FamilyTreeDNA, and MyHeritage
Is there another site like Gedmatch.com that will help me find more family members who tested on different platforms? I tested on Ancestry, and would love other free sources to match raw DNA for possible relatives.
Does anyone know if you can upload raw data from Ancestry and 23andme to Livewello after paying only the $19.95? I had ancestry dna done over a year ago but wasn’t aware there was a raw data file. So, I had a 23andme DNA done a couple of months ago. I have uploaded my raw data file from 23ndme to Livewello, and got all my reports from it. Just today, I found out there is a raw data file from Ancestry DNA, so I have downloaded it to my PC. But, I can’t find where I can upload it to 23andme without creating a new profile and paying another $19.95.

Hi Blaine,
Thank you for great input. I would suggest that you correct this phrase: “the most popular and well-known tools for wringing every last bit of information out of your raw data, and maximizing the cost of your DNA test.” Rather than maximizing the cost, I think you meant to say maximizing the utility, or making the most of the cost, etc.
I am surprised that you omitted Genome Mate Pro (getgmp.com). I use this free application daily.
Another site I found early on was Dr. Amy Yasko’s methylation analysis tool. See https://www.knowyourgenetics.com/
There is a Google Play app called Genomapp that you can use your Ancestry raw dna file with. It tells you about diseases and other health related things that you have a higher risk of having. It’s not super descriptive though unfortunately.
“Genetic Health Reports” a comprehensive review of companies offering genetic health information is available at Amazon as a book or a Kindle. It also discusses who benefits from genetic testing and how doctors can best integrate genetic testing in clinical practice.
Great info. Would love to see this updated!
