LLHL 131 - Epigenetics: Turn on Your Health Genes

According to cell biologist Dr. Bruce Lipton, everything historically taught about genetics has been wrong. Our DNA does not, in fact, control our destiny. While our genes are the blueprint for our body, they alone are not the master of our health. Genes are turned on or off every day. Turning on the health genes has everything to do with how we eat, think, and move. Every choice we make, every day, either turns on health or turns on disease. In this class we will work from this concept to see how proper nutrition, a positive attitude, and physical fitness can give everyone--even those with dreadful family health histories--a chance to live a long and healthy life.
