Breakfast with Martin Bester reveals ancestral DNA origins
Updated | By Breakfast with Martin Bester
The Breakfast with Martin Bester team recently did ancestral DNA testing, which revealed their ancestral origins and where in the world their forefathers came from.
The world has become a melting pot of different cultures, races, historical societies, and tribes, all living together in various locations on the planet.
In South Africa alone, we are known as the rainbow nation because of our vast array of different cultures, races, religions, and historical backgrounds.

Despite our many differences, one thing remains: we are all South Africans.
That being said, it is still interesting to know where exactly in the world your forefathers were from and which places from across the world make up our gene pools today.
For interest's sake, the Breakfast with Martin Bester team set out to do DNA testing to determine their ancestral backgrounds.
The team performed the needed test with the help of DNA ancestry testing and lineage testing services EasyDNA, and finally, the results are in.
