It is useful to know which foods are good for me, but I want to know which ones to avoid and which are neutral and they do not list those. So there is room for improvement there. Also, I have had two previous DNA tests (pertaining to diet) and they both came up with the same results. However GenoPalate's results differ from theirs.

The host did a great job, but I have questions -- as did other participants -- about how advice is rendered by GenoPalate. I just read an article today about the Dirty Dozen, for example, with strawberries being rated as the worst offender of all of the fruits and vegetables of carrying pesticides. Even though that is the case, GenoPalate still recommends it as the BEST in my particular case. IMO, the fact that strawberries (in this example) is one of the worst offenders should enter your algorithm and render it less than the best. At the very least, put an asterisk by it and alert the consumer (me!) that even though strawberries are good for me, the way they arrive on the grocery store shelves has been widely shown to be BAD for me. This is a gaping hole in your recommendation list and potentially exposes your customers to bad health impacts -- and I know you are striving to do the opposite. Also, the host was showcasing your app for iPhone while she was demonstrating the report, but my app would constantly throw up a screen which I was unable to X out of, thus causing me to have to get out of the app numerous times, sign in again, and navigate to where I was. It was distracting and I'm sure others are experiencing it too. Just wanted to bring it to your attention.

Kaitland Woelky was well-spoken, well-organized, and delivered a thorough presentation of how to navigate the Geno Palate information. She gets an A in my book. Yet I remained disappointed in the product itself, I guess. As written in private Q to her as well as in advance of the meeting when I registered for it, I knew (and your test confirmed) that I have the MthFr variant and should consume extra natural folate. I also know that it is advisable that I should avoid folic acid, which is present in all fortified breads and pastas. I was surprised that these would be recommended to me. Of course, she showed me how to use the filters, but that is not relevant to my point... in that I'd need to know for myself to avoid that food... despite Geno Palate recommending it to me. Even upon clicking on "wheat bagel" for example (which Geno Palate identified as a "Best Match" for me), there is nothing indicating that there might be a red flag, so to speak. It makes the rest of the report somewhat suspect to me, significantly affecting my ability to trust the recommendations. I had hoped Geno Palate would develop my understanding, but it is a let down. It expects me to know what I should filter from the recommendations. I do appreciate the ability to do research on my own on the genetic variants provided.

Scam alert!! The promotion for “ free” supplement is misleading. They say you can cancel anytime. They offer a 1 month free vitamin “ customized” to you but you are sent a 3 month supply so regardless of whether you want to continue you must pay 2 months. Expensive for what is offered. Beware of this offer. Between that snd the list of foods they say I should eat but haven’t heard of or recipes that don’t include anything I already have in my home. I don’t have junk food here. Lots of quality foods but none they recommend... Definitely wasn’t worth the money.

Very knowledgeable. Took the time to answer all questions. I'm excited to get started! Now, if you could just do a meal service tailored to our genes, I'd be the first to sign up!

Don't waste your time or money. This report failed to include any sensitivity information. The disclaimer on site states that you'll be notified if they cannot obtain a result, or you won't be charged. Flat false. I obtained no specialized result and was told too bad, and instead basically received USDA food intake recommendations. PASS!

Great to see genetic indicators of lactose intolerance and gluten sensitivity. All the stuff about specific amounts of carbs, omega-3s, and other nutrient intake suggestions seem very generic and give me no good reason to take them seriously.

Was very clear on how to look for info. Appreciate it
