While this idea might sound scary to the local budtender, it\u2019s a reality that many companies are bringing to life.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One such company, known as <a href=\"https:\/\/endodna.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">EndoDNA<\/a> or Endocanna Health, is using groundbreaking new tech to create personalized cannabis use plans based on every customer&#8217;s unique genetic information. Once upon a time, Endocanna Health CEO Len May got kicked out of the house for smoking weed. Now, he\u2019s been at the forefront of cannabis genetic testing technology since 2017.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>What Is EndoDNA Testing?<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;d like to try this new technology for yourself, it&#8217;s easier than it&#8217;s ever been. Simply swab the inside of your cheek, send out a prepaid package with the specimen, and wait. Endocanna Health\u2019s DNA testing kit is $199, but if you\u2019ve already uploaded your DNA to a database like Ancestry.com, the price of the service drops to $49.95.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your results are broken into the following categories:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anxiety\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cognitive function &amp; behavior\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Digestive function\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drug dependence\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drug metabolism\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Fitness\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Metabolism\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mood\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Musculoskeletal &amp; immune function\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pain, nausea, &amp; neurologic patterns\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sleep\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">THC side effects\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These categories include even more specific reports; for example, \u201cPTSD\u201d can be found under the \u201cAnxiety\u201d category. It\u2019s incredibly thorough. AI uses genetic markers found in your DNA testing to recommend THC-to-CBD ratios, terpenes, and specific strains per report.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ll also learn helpful information about how your body metabolizes cannabis. Some people aren\u2019t suited for edibles because their liver is over or underactive when processing THC. Others might be sensitive to CBD, so they won\u2019t be recommended high-CBD strains.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To explore further, the CYP2C9 and CYP3A4 genes regulate THC metabolism. These genes indicate how sensitive you are to THC and other medications. If you\u2019re genetically prone to having a subpar metabolism, strains that are high in THC are more likely to be uncomfortably psychoactive than those with a lower concentration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Changing Public Perspectives\u00a0 <\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People are often pleasantly surprised with the extra health data the test provides. Your report will alert you of genetic predispositions you have, which empowers you to make lifestyle changes preemptively. This can have incredible benefits &#8212; someone genetically predisposed to neurological disorders may start taking neuroprotective herbs, become physically active, watch less TV, or learn a new language.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, this service isn\u2019t without controversy. One criticism that Endocanna Health has received is that they sell terpene blends that are sometimes found in recommended products. In 2020, May assured Leafly reporter Meg Hartley that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leafly.com\/news\/strains-products\/home-dna-kits-can-help-pick-cannabis-strain\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">no direct profits are made<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. He explained, <\/span>\u201cWe look at certificates of analysis from different product manufacturers and run them to a matching algorithm, and we look for several things: Number one, we look for the percentage of CBD, THC; secondary, terpene profile; and then some others, like essential oils.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Likewise, there are many people who are against DNA uploads on principle. In a similar vein, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.veriheal.com\/blog\/will-ai-impact-the-cannabis-industry\/\">AI industry<\/a> is under scrutiny for its potential to gather personal, sensitive, and confidential health data to make certain kinds of labor obsolete &#8212; a fear that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.technologyreview.com\/2024\/01\/27\/1087041\/technological-unemployment-elon-musk-jobs-ai\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">new technology and automation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> have instilled in the working class for nearly the entirety of the past century. Data privacy may be in the hands of AI, waiting to be misused, racially-biased, or declassified by a security breach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But this isn\u2019t stopping May. He <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.latimes.com\/lifestyle\/story\/2021-04-15\/can-dna-unlock-the-perfect-weed-experience\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">predicts<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that genetically personalized cannabis experiences will become more and more commonplace once prohibition ends on a federal level. May told <em>LA Times<\/em> writer Adam Tschorn: <\/span>\u201cI believe we\u2019re going to have indication-specific products for specific people with [specific] genotypes\u2026The same way that I take my personalized vitamins and my personalized nutrients based on my DNA, I\u2019ll take my supplement cannabinoids as well.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Final Thoughts<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Whether you&#8217;re excited about this idea, or concerned that it seems a little too <em>Black Mirror, <\/em>there&#8217;s no denying that <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">the potential medical implications are huge.
