Scientists believe that many diseases are not only related to the external environment, but also genetic. Genetic testing can help people find out the genetic factors causing disease, so that they can adjust their lifestyles in a targeted manner to prevent or delay the occurrence of diseases. That’s why there are many DNA testing companies, each offering a different type of test. Here are some of the companies invested in developing and commercializing the DNA Testing industry. This list’s performance is calculated on an equally weighted method.
