StrideDNA Link is built for users who already have DNA data from another provider and want methylation-focused reporting without buying another saliva kit. It is a practical bridge product that prioritises speed and convenience.
Who is this test for?
This test is ideal for people who already have 23andMe DNA data and want methylation-oriented interpretation, nutritional context, and related reports without repeating the genetic collection step.
How the test works
You upload existing compatible raw DNA data to Stride, and the platform generates a set of reports that includes methylation-related analysis. This removes the need for a new physical collection kit if you already have usable data.
Pros & cons
Pros
No new DNA sample required if you already have compatible data
Fast turnaround from uploaded raw data
Good value for users with existing 23andMe results
Provides broader report access than a simple raw data upload tool
Cons
Depends on having existing compatible DNA data
Not ideal if you want a fresh dedicated test kit
Interpretation quality still depends on source data compatibility
