I Sequenced My Entire DNA — All 3 Billion Letters of It

Video thumbnail


I'm 71, and I just did something most people never will: I sent my full genome off to be sequenced — all 3 billion letters of it. Not a 23andMe-style ancestry kit. A complete read of the code that built me.

This one test can flag disease risk, show how I metabolize drugs and supplements, and reveal whether I'm carrying variants linked to Alzheimer's or heart disease. If something's hiding in there, I want years of runway to act on it — through diet, training, screening, or supplementation. Knowledge is the first intervention.

I'm documenting everything as the results come in, and what they mean for how I'm approaching health and longevity. I'm Gary Leland, and this is The 200 Year Life Project.
