“Unlocking the Secrets of Your Face: What Your Features Say About Your Hidden Ancestry!”

Tall Tales

Your height might contain clues to where you’re from! If you’re someone who’s very tall, it might suggest that you have genetics that can be traced from Northern Europe or Africa, where the average height is much higher.

And, of course, the same goes for people out there who are short!

Short King Communities

If you’re on the smaller side, it might mean you come from a lineage of smaller communities where extra strength or height wasn’t needed as much — like in close-knit groups or in societies where travel was not as important, like on islands.

Of course, it could also just come down to luck!

Long Live Short People

Speaking of luck, it might actually be luckier to be shorter than taller!

According to a study done by researchers at the Kuakini Medical Center, people who are shorter actually lived longer than their taller counterparts, and it may be because they have a gene that taller people do not.

Dairy-Free?

If you’re lactose intolerant, it might be a sign that your ancestors are not from Northern Europe! The genes that are tied to being tolerant of dairy products are most commonly found in Northern European communities and people.

But lactose intolerance might be a sign of where you are historically from!
