113: Prevent Disease by Understanding Your Genes w/ Dr Ben Lynch
Dr Ben Lynch was my first resource (the only resource I could find) when I began looking into epigenetics as part of my healing journey over a decade ago.
His website, drbenlynch.com, offered every bit of information I needed to understand what I was starting to learn about MTHFR and other gene mutations I was becoming aware that I had.
In this episode we discuss:
- The effect of your environment on your genes
- Why certain medications affect some people and not others
- How you can test your genes and why you should
- Understanding MTHFR and other common gene polymorphisms that we need to know about in order to keep healthy
- What we should be avoiding if we do have these mutations
- How our environment is switching on these genes to cause infertility
- How we can increase our fertility
- Supplements we should take or stay away from when we have MTHFR
