Cannabis contains over 400 chemical compounds that affect our minds and bodies.
These Cannabinoids, Terpenoids, and Flavonoids work together to create an Entourage Effect, and ultimately the Total Canna Profile (TCP) of the plant dictates the resulting physiological impact on our minds and bodies.
MyDx tests for the Total Canna Profile of the plant and correlates that with your feelings, or your symptoms, so you can find a strain profile that works for you.
Personal Profile – Every person reacts differently to a given cannabis strain. The question “What is the best Cannabis” can only be answered from the perspective of the individual consuming the Cannabis, their specific neuro-chemistry, and their mental state at the time of consumption. A sedative to one person can be a stimulant to another. The Personal Profile allows the user to add their own experience to the TCP, allowing a customization of the scientific research.
In this way, uniquely the MyDx Analyzer provides an access to the age-old questions;
“How Will This Sample Make Me Feel”
or
“What Symptoms Will It Help Me Relieve”?
