Is DNA Testing Able to Tell You that Your Kid is a Good Athlete?
There is another way to find out whether your child have the potential of becoming an athlete – is through DNA testing, by identifying a gene called ACTN3 in which can predict certain athletic skills. Most experts believe this ACTN3 gene able to tell whether a child is capable of being a sprinter or a marathon runner due to the two versions of the gene – the R and X variants.
I found out that The Escapist forum users were quite skeptical about this particular DNA testing for kids. Most of them gave negative feedback about this DNA testing method.
