Are you interested in
knowing how to potentially prevent health problems by
changing a few simple things in your environment? Have you
done
genetic testing through “23andMe”,
and would like to better understand what that genetic
information might reveal about your current or future
health?Are you interested in learning about what nutrition
and lifestyle is best suited for your genes? If so, then
Genetic Testing: Defining Your Path to a Personalized
Health Plan can help you understand some of your genetic
predispositions, help you work with your doctor to create
a personalized approach to preventing health problems
based on your genes, and help you and your doctor monitor
your health to determine if you are providing the best
environment for your genes. Our genes don’t usually write
a sealed destiny for health or illness, but are often a
reflection of how our environment is interacting with our
genes. The environment you expose your body to on a
regular basis can be much more significant to your health
than the genes you inherit from your parents. This book
can help you learn what type of specific environment might
prevent potential health problems. Gain access to
cutting-edge scientific research for a holistic and truly
effective approach to understanding and preventing health
problems based on your genes. This is an exploration of
epigenetics,
nutrigenomics, and a guide to use with your
doctor to help create a
personalized health
plan. Read less
Dirty
Genes: A Breakthrough Program to Treat the Root
Cause of Illness and Optimize Your Health
After suffering for years
with unexplainable health issues, Dr. Ben Lynch
discovered the root cause—“dirty” genes. Genes can be
“born dirty” or merely “act dirty” in response to your
environment, diet, or lifestyle—causing lifelong,
life-threatening, and chronic health problems, including
cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, anxiety,
depression, digestive issues, obesity, cancer, and
diabetes.
Based on his own experience and successfully helping
thousands of clients, Dr. Lynch shows you how to
identify and optimize both types of dirty genes by
cleaning them up with targeted and personalized plans,
including healthy eating, good sleep, stress relief,
environmental detox, and other holistic and natural
means.
Many of us believe our genes doom us to the disorders
that run in our families. But Dr. Lynch reveals that
with the right plan in place, you can eliminate
symptoms, and optimize your physical and mental
health—and ultimately rewrite your genetic destiny.
MTHFR
Gene Therapy Demystified: Crack Your Genetic
Code to Better Health
Have you been
struggling with health issues for years and recently
diagnosed with MTHFR gene mutation?
You’ve identified the cause of your health issues, but
now unsure what to do next? Dr. Terranella has treated
hundreds of people with MTHFR gene mutations and now
has released a comprehensive guide to help you
navigate MTHFR treatment. Go beyond just learning
about MTHFR gene mutation and actually address your
individual treatment options. Rather than a one size
fits all protocol, Dr. Terranella provides you with
the “why” behind the what to do. You will learn what
to expect and what to do when things do not go as
planned. “Dr. Terranella is the best doctor I’ve ever
seen! If you want to understand MTHFR, he is “THE” guy
to listen to! I have a level of understanding I never
thought possible, and better than that, I have real
results from treatment ” Mike Hardenbrook, Patient
Younger
You: Reduce Your Bio Age and Live Longer, Better
Based on the
groundbreaking study that shaved three years off a
subjects' age in just eight weeks, discover a proven,
accessible plan to prevent diseases and reduce your
biological age.
It’s true: getting older is inevitable and your
chronological age can only move in one direction. But
you also have a biological age, which scientists can
measure by assessing how your genes are expressed
through epigenetics. Exciting new research shows that
your bio age can actually move in reverse—and Dr. Kara
Fitzgerald’s groundbreaking, rigorous clinical trial
proved it’s possible. By eating delicious foods and
establishing common-sense lifestyle practices that
positively influence genetic expression, study
participants reduced their bio age by just over three
years in only eight weeks!
Now Dr. Fitzgerald shares the diet and lifestyle plan
that shows you how to influence your epigenetics for a
younger you. In Younger You you’ll learn:
It’s not your genetics that determines your age and
level of health, it’s your epigenetics
How DNA methylation powerfully
influences your epigenetic expression
The foods and lifestyle choices that most affect DNA
methylation
Simple swaps to your daily routines that will add years
to your life
The full eating and lifestyle program, with recipes and
meal plans, to reduce your bio age and increase vitality
How to take care of your epigenetic expression at every
life stage, from infancy through midlife and your later
decades
We don’t have to accept a descent into disease and
unwellness as we age as inevitable: when you reduce bio
age you reduce your odds of developing all the major
diseases, including diabetes, cancer, and dementia. With
assessment tools for determining your bio age, recipes,
and plans for putting it all into practice,Younger You
helps you repair years of damage, ward off chronic
disease, and optimize your health—for years to come.
The
Telomere Effect: A Revolutionary Approach to
Living Younger, Healthier, Longer
Have you wondered why
some sixty-year-olds look and feel like forty-year-olds
and why some forty-year-olds look and feel like
sixty-year-olds? While many factors contribute to aging
and illness, Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn discovered a
biological indicator called
telomerase,
the enzyme that replenishes
telomeres,
which protect our genetic heritage. Dr. Blackburn and
Dr. Elissa Epel's research shows that the length and
health of one's telomeres are a biological underpinning
of the long-hypothesized mind-body connection. They and
other scientists have found that changes we can make to
our daily habits can protect our telomeres and increase
our health spans (the number of years we remain healthy,
active, and disease-free).
The Telemere Effect reveals how Blackburn and Epel's
findings, together with research from colleagues around
the world, cumulatively show that sleep quality,
exercise, aspects of diet, and even certain chemicals
profoundly affect our telomeres, and that chronic
stress, negative thoughts, strained relationships, and
even the wrong neighborhoods can eat away at them.
Drawing from this scientific body of knowledge, they
share lists of foods and suggest amounts and types of
exercise that are healthy for our telomeres, mind tricks
you can use to protect yourself from stress, and
information about how to protect your children against
developing shorter telomeres, from pregnancy through
adolescence. And they describe how we can improve our
health spans at the community level, with neighborhoods
characterized by trust, green spaces, and safe streets.
The Telemere Effect will make you reassess how you live
your life on a day-to-day basis. It is the first book to
explain how we age at a
cellular level
and how we can make simple changes to keep our
chromosomes and cells healthy, allowing us to stay
disease-free longer and live more vital and meaningful
lives.
