Re: newbie w/ MCI confused about how to dig deeper into apoe snps
Hello Syd! I just want to point our that not all MCI can be attributed to the APOE 4 gene. Epigenetics is a big factor.

No other SNP showed as robust ...

Re: 23 and Me Kit Information
Hello, I am not an expert but have looked at my reports and believe that the two genes they look at to determine status are rs7412 and rs429358. This article here gives a table (Table 2) on how your APOE status is determined using these 2 genes. https://www.gbhealthwatch.com/GND-High-Cholesterol-APO...
