Did you actually find any actionable results? When I had my genome sequenced professionally they told me I literally had no SNPs in my genome that were associated with deleterious mutations. And even if you do, there are only some treatments- and those treatments usually have clinically validated tests that are accurate.

Yes, mostly preventative. Like it caused me to have my cholesterol checked and realized my triglycerides were a dumpster fire. Also good to know about certain cancer risks that I never would have checked up on regularly.

But if you had your entire genome sequenced and not just a check for specific risk factors then 100% there is all sorts of interesting information you can find on yourself. There are tons of correlative studies out there.
