Learn. Experiment. Optimize.

You’ve been guessing. Your DNA has actual answers.

Connect to your raw data from 23andMe, AncestryDNA, MyHeritage, Sequencing.com, TellMeGen, or any other DNA test, and see what your own genes say about the food, supplements, medications, and lifestyle changes that fit you.

While your genes don’t change, the research on genetics is constantly expanding. We read it every week so you don’t have to.

Your DNA file never leaves your device. We don’t store it, we don’t track you, and we have no supplements to sell you. Not sure your file will work? Check compatibility before you join.

ABCC11 Gene: Ear Wax and No Body Odor

The ABCC11 gene determines both the type of earwax a person has and their armpit odor. Learn more about how a change in a single spot in the DNA of this gene can cause the gene not to function.

Twins: Genetic SNPs That Increase the Odds of Having Twins

Twins tend to ‘run in families’, which is a colloquial way of saying that there is a hereditary component that increases the likelihood of having twins. Check your genetic data (women only :-) to see if you are more likely to have twins.

Skin Aging: Using Genomics to Solve Wrinkles and Age Spots

Some people age naturally with beautiful-looking skin. Others slather on creams and odd gunk in a futile battle to chase away wrinkles and age spots. What is the difference? Genetics and environmental factors, of course.

Genetics and Color Blindness

Do you have difficulty seeing some colors? Discover how variants in genes related to color blindness may mean we all see things a bit differently.

Caffeine Metabolism and Your Genes

Caffeine remains the most popular ‘drug’ of choice for a large percentage of the population. Genetics determines how quickly your body processes and eliminates caffeine and whether it is likely to make you jittery or anxious.

Dyslexia: Genes + Early Life Stressors

While dyslexia is known to run in families, the role of genetics in dyslexia is still being determined. Here is a quick look at some of the genes involved in dyslexia, affecting around 10% of the population.

Skinny Genes: Weight Loss from Aerobic Exercise

Researchers have found that weight loss from aerobic exercise depends on your genetic variants. Find out if you have skinny genes from exercise.

TRPV1 Gene: Receptor for Spicy Foods, Sensing Cold, and CBD Oil

Learn how the TRPV1 gene shapes your reaction to spicy foods, pain, temperature, neuroinflammation and CBD oil, plus see how your genetic variants may affect tolerance and health.

Taste Receptors: Bitter, Sweet, and Much More

Ever wonder why some people don’t like Brussel sprouts or strong, dark coffee? Some people love a good, dark roast, cup of coffee – and Brussel sprouts and cabbage taste just great. Genetic variants in the taste receptor genes mean that we taste things differently.


My Story…

Hi! I’m Debbie Moon, founder of Genetic Lifehacks.

When I first had my genetic data sequenced, I was both amazed and frustrated:  amazed by all of the genetic research available in academic journals, but frustrated by the disconnected topics and lack of accessibility.

I started Genetic Lifehacks to bridge the gap — to help everyone understand how their genes influence their health, diet, and longevity with practical and useful information based on current research studies.

With my undergraduate degree in engineering as a foundation and a Master’s degree in Biological Sciences from Clemson University (2019), I’ve built Genetic Lifehacks into a platform that has helped over 5 million readers and 19,000+ members to optimize their health through understanding their genetics.
