Even with this news this was 100% worth it for me honestly. I took this test close to 10 years ago and used those results to come up with a plan based on my DNA that completely turned my life around with my doctor. I used to fall asleep reading a book after 15 minutes and now can study for 16 hours per day and absorb the information easily (Math, Physics, complex information, etc.).
These companies can get all types of data on you anyways through other means, DNA and everything. You can’t do anything for yourself because they keep that information to themselves though. 23andme along with other services can get you the data to actually be useful and insightful on a personal level.

I found I was a non-responder to caffeine so I was dumping money on it when it wasn’t keeping me awake. Was sensitive to B-Vitamins so that provided a big boost taking a B-Complex. Found out I also had a tricky neurotransmitter (dopamine/choline/etc.) mutations so doctor worked out the best balanced supplementation for it. I basically needed more dopamine, but not too much because I had some genes that provided extra dopamine so there is a case of under/overdoing it. Basically Modafinil or Adderall along with less Choline supplementation (I produce more) make me Einstein but can’t do too much of it, so low dose or one full dose every so often is great and enough to carry a few days. Main issue is really to prolong/enhance focus because I have a dominant/effective Default Mode Network so if I can simply pay attention, I’ll be straight. Additionally, I was extra sensitive to the benefits of a Keto diet (and its impact on learning) so I go on that kind of diet when I need to as well.
But yeah, exercise caution because everyone is different and playing with neurotransmitters can be dangerous. Somebody taking excess dopamine or GABA for example can mess their life up while it’s a neurotransmitter someone else is missing. That’s why these reports can be beneficial. To make it more wild, siblings can have crazy different genes and reactions. Best way is to get the data.

#notme my dna has never been provided to outside entities.
If my cousin rob a bank or catch a body and they find him through my saliva, it ain't my fault
