National DNA Day is just about a month away and there’s no better way to celebrate than to learn about your own. Get ahead of the game with this deal on Living DNA’s Full Ancestry Kits and see just how unique your individual history is.

Here’s how it works: swab the inside of your cheek for about 45 seconds and put the swab back in its tube. Mail that sucker off and expect the results in six to eight weeks. Your kit status and results are available to view online, anytime.

Living DNA dubs itself the most detailed ancestry test in the world, with results for over 150 regions, going back 500 years. Within particular regions, it’ll look even further at your ancestry and display sub-regional breakdowns. From the dashboard, you can break down your family ancestry and look at your mother line and father line ancestry dating back tens of thousands of years ago, discovering their migrations from Africa. You’ll basically get to experience your own ancestry at all different points throughout history.

Your results are kept indefinitely, so when genetic matches appear, you’ll even be able to discover extended family members and delve into the migration paths of your ancestors. Oh, and your data will be kept safe and secure, and never sold.

Usually $99, the kit is 30% off for Mashable readers. Get the Full Ancestry DNA Kit for just $64.59 when you use the code SPRINGSAVE15.
