+Leslie Greer/Mckinney: They are probably accurate to a certain degree. The companies themselves don't decide which genes cause which illness. That information comes from researchers (what they publish) and probably the research is very young. Sometimes it is complex. It isn't just one genes that effects something, but there may be 100 genes involved. In some cases, like hemophilia, there is I think 2 genes. Hemophilia is very well understood now and treatable.
