Here is my favorite finding on my DNA
Two working copies of alpha-actinin-3 in fast-twitch muscle fiber.
Many world-class sprinters and some endurance athletes have this genotype.
Way cool (my new favorite expression - reverting to being a teenager) I have share genotype with athletes.
And equally wonderful: my DNA showed that I have Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry, just now noticed of the report is showing some Balkan ancestry. . . way cool - must check out the Balkans
An estimated 2.7% of your DNA is from Neanderthals.
Imagine I have already jumped into a couple of discussions.
So the big picture for my ancestry Maternal Line: H5a1
Haplogroup H5 originated in the Caucasus region during the Ice Age, then
spread out in several directions after the climate began to warm about
15,000 years ago. Today the haplogroup is common in Lebanon and many
parts of Europe.
I am not going into studying genealogy. Nope. I did find it fun to talk with someone who is excited to be H5a1. Whole new language.Me just excited. I have no clue.

Lynn, I haven't a clue either on H5a1... is that Martian talk for we Earthlings' wee-brain to ponder over at Starbucks? And yes, your DNA report sure does sound Way Cool! I also think that your quick wit and scholarly information sharing is even more Waaaay Cool! Hugs...
ReplyDeletethank you my dear friend, yes perhaps a double expresso would clarify things only Starbucks of course
