So far personalized medicine based on DNA sequencing has been mostly a bust. In most cases the data isn't really actionable. It might tell you that you have an elevated risk for certain conditions but in most cases the absolute risk is still low. Or there's not much you can practically do to lower the risk.

There are a few exceptions like BRCA where the risk from certain genotypes is high enough to justify aggressive preventative care.
