That's not exactly what happened. The FDA required 23andme to stop reporting health risks as if they were properly vetted medical data. I think that's the wrong decision, and it did have the effect of greatly limiting their market in the US, but you can still do a 23andme test and then just go to Promethease to get just as detailed a look at all the health implications as 23andme provided (and still provides to the rest of the world.)
The FDA did not shut down 23andme or make them stop offering DNA tests, they stopped them offering interpretations of those tests.
