Does our Genetic makeup influence our LSD trip?
Hey psychedelic Investors! MindMed ( MMED/MNMD/MMQ ) recently published a study in Nature Scientific Reports examining the different variations in our genes and how they affect one’s experience during an LSD trip.
The results are leading us to infer that, soon, we might be able to predict the strength, duration and perhaps even the subjective experience one undergoes when taking LSD based on certain genes that we possesses.
If we’re able to do that, how will this affect LSD’s medical uses in therapy setting?
Can we use this knowledge to move towards personalized dosing, where each individual will receive a different dose level for the same procedure, based on what their genetic code tells the therapist?
We will answer these questions in today’s episode .
We will also take a deep dive into the LSD study itself and explain why the findings are important for the future of psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy.

Australia becomes a pioneer in psychedelic legalization. New study finds a link between microdosing and authenticity. The struggle to expand access to psychedelics continues in the U.S. Congress.
Another study concludes with results challenging the increasingly popular narrative that microdosing psychedelics improves mood and cognitive function.
Can Psychedelics Treat Alcoholism? New Psilocybin & DMT Studies Say YES

In today’s episode, we dive into two pre-clinical studies testing psychedelics’ effectiveness in treating alcohol-related illnesses.
In the first, researchers tested psilocybin (magic mushrooms) on mice who got addicted to alcohol. They found that the psilocybin helped repair a part of their brain that alcohol abuse damaged. This helped the mice make less neurotic decisions, and helped them abstain from alcohol.
This is promising, and if it can be repeated in humans, it would be a huge step forward in treating alcoholism.
The second study looked at the Ayahuasca brew, which has as its main psychoactive ingredient DMT. In this study, the researchers found that the mice who took the ayahuasca were less likely to seek out more alcohol.
Again, if this can be replicated in humans, it would show the powerful benefits of psychedelic medicines to treat alcoholism.
Psychedelics and mental health have long been a topic of research, and we are finally getting data that psychedelics like psilocybin and DMT may be effective in treating a variety of mental health conditions, such as alcoholism.
