23 & ME DNA Quacks Bad Science

23&Me is collapsing: turns out, all that precious DNA data is worthless.


Quick Note By Trace L Hentz (p.s. I'm an elder, too)

Native Elders warned long ago about the collection of your sacred and sovereign DNA (blood and spit) - and the elders also warned about colonial QUACKS (bad medicine) and science's inaccuracy!  Bad data?  That, too.  

Blood for Money? READ MY REVIEW OF LEECH AND EARTHWORM:  www.ipcb.org/publications/video/files/revp2.html

I wrote:

Ever wondered if genetic research is being done on Indigenous people? Absolutely and often without their knowledge. The film “The Leech and the Earthworm” chronicles the new Columbus – a genetic scientist who wants to map your genetic identity, and will even steal to get it.”

One interview that stands out is with Larry Baird, leader of the Nuu-chah-nulth Tribe of Vancouver Island, Canada, who was outraged to find out that DNA samples taken from over 800 tribal members almost 20 years ago for arthritis research were taken to Oxford (in England) and used for other purposes without their consent. (Cloning and worse...)

Mainstream History was written so wrong, so fake, for so long, you cannot trust it, any of it... Think back to school... what did you learn? No history worth your time remembering, I'd bet.  (We're educated to be ignorant?)

Years ago, my birthfather's family (cousins) insisted they do DNA to prove what tribe - well, dah... that failed... YOU CANNOT PROVE YOUR TRIBE with a DNA swab. The "science" is total bullcrap.  (But all those expensive TV Commercials told you and sold you, right?) 

They are making MONEY on our stupidity!

You and I and DNA cannot begin to correct the bad history, a million years of migrations, conquest, intermarriages, invasions and murders -and bad theories abound about our FIRST NATIONS (aka anthropology)...

To today...

In what feels like a desperate attempt to stay afloat, 23andMe plans to… start prescribing weight loss drugs.  How did we get here, with the once-mighty DNA testing company becoming just the latest to join the GLP-1 trend, like so many others have already done?  But 23andMe has few cards left to play.  Once valued at $6 billion, it’s now a penny stock on the verge of being delisted from the Nasdaq.  It’s struggled to stoke demand for its DNA spit tests, and its attempts to use its trove of genetic data for drug discovery and development have been predictably expensive, with potential profits a long way off.

On Friday, August 9, the company said it’s shutting down its internal drug discovery efforts but will continue to fund development of two cancer drugs.

23andMe's attempt in recent years to connect consumer DNA tests to health — showing the diseases people are at risk for, and visits with doctors who can help determine next steps — seems like an offering that should catch on, especially given how popular the longevity and wellness fads have become.

But that was all a fraud and didn't work!

The experts are baffled - why, given the mountain of precious DNA information, the “code of life” and “software for everything” the company can’t make it work?  Some brave souls have suggested there’s not much doctors can do with the information gleaned from consumer DNA tests

Oh, great!

By the way, it’s not much anyone can do with DNA data, other than make Ponzi schemes investing into stupid things like 23andMe, then pumping and dumping the stock.   Admittedly, a Ponzi scheme can last a while and be profitable for some, who dump the stock ahead of others.





BAD SCIENCE?  Isolation of DNA from nucleus of cells is just as hocus-pocus as isolation of viruses from samples.  Despite several decades after the hyped-up “human genome sequencing” project completion, which promised to cure cancer (yeah… again…) and all diseases, none of that happened. Nothing really useful came out of those billions invested into the pipe dream of cracking the genetic “code of life”.  At the completion of the human genome project, Svante Paabo could not coherently explain the difference between a chimpanzee and a human, while any 5 year old will have no difficulty explaining it.  (A huge waste of MONEY, too.)

👉 Did you know the new weight loss shots have killed people...America is buying these (weight loss) drugs and having them prescribed to Americans more than any other country on earth.”  This is where he shocked me the most.

“…the company Novo Nordisk ... was just handed 10,000 lawsuits by people who have used Ozempic and Wegovy and have now either died, had brain cancers, had thyroid cancers, breast cancers, paralyzed stomachs.

 

...and there is a rise in strange cancers, sudden deaths and autoimmune diseases NEVER seen before…

Both companies 23AndMe and Ancestry.com will collect your DNA sample, charge you money to tell you who you are related to — BUT they are under no obligation to keep this private.  As far as I can tell they use this data to sell your information, and of course profit from it. (Always follow that money, right?)
