Frequently Asked Questions

Your results offer a comprehensive view of how your genetics influence mental and cognitive traits, physical characteristics, potential health risk factors, and how your body responds to different nutrients and dietary patterns. By combining insights across these areas, you gain a clearer understanding of your overall well-being and how your DNA interacts with your lifestyle.

Our analysis is built on high-quality genetic sequencing and established scientific research to provide reliable and meaningful insights. While genetic testing offers a powerful way to understand patterns and predispositions, results are probabilistic rather than absolute. This means your insights reflect tendencies and risk levels — not guaranteed outcomes or medical diagnoses.
We continuously update our analyses as scientific knowledge evolves, ensuring your results remain aligned with the latest research.

After completing your order, your DNA kit is delivered within a few business days. Once your sample is collected and sent back to the lab, our process only takes up to 10 days. You'll be notified by email as soon as your results are ready to view. You can view all your detailed results from your bioRitma app.

bioRitma requires an activated DNA kit to generate your personalized results. The kit provides the genetic sample needed for whole-genome sequencing. Without it, the app can still offer general information, but your personal insights will only be available after your sample is processed.

No. bioRitma provides genetic insights and risk assessments based on scientific research, but these are not medical diagnoses. Our reports are designed to help you understand your genetic tendencies and make informed decisions about your health and lifestyle. Always consult a healthcare professional for medical advice or clinical decisions.

Not at all. Our reports are designed to be clear, visual, and easy to understand — no scientific background required. Each insight includes simple explanations and context so you can make sense of your results right away. If you ever have questions, our support team is here to help.

A decreased or average risk means that based on your genetic profile, you are not at an elevated predisposition for a particular trait or condition compared to the general population. This is positive news, but it doesn't guarantee immunity. Lifestyle, environment, and other factors also play a role. Use these insights to stay informed and proactive about your health.

Yes. You can update your lifestyle questionnaire responses at any time through the bioRitma app. Since some insights combine your genetic data with lifestyle factors, keeping your responses up to date ensures the most accurate and relevant recommendations.

Your privacy is a core priority. Your genetic and personal data are stored securely within our own protected systems and are never shared with third parties without your explicit consent. You remain in full control of your data and can request its removal from our database at any time.
We follow strict security and privacy practices to ensure your information is handled confidentially and responsibly throughout the entire process.

bioRitma uses whole-genome sequencing (WGS) to analyze 100% of your DNA — over 20,000 genes — unlike most consumer tests that only look at a small fraction. This comprehensive approach allows us to provide deeper insights across health, wellbeing, and carrier status. As science advances, your data can be reanalyzed without needing a new sample.
