Epigenetics
The Power of LifestyleEach individual is born with specific strengths and weaknesses which we call their constitution. An individuals constitution is influenced by both genetics and their parents lifestyle during and before pregnancy. New research in epigenetics shows that one's lifestyle, diet, behaviors and environment play a bigger role in one's state of health or manifestation of disease than genes themselves. How you live is more important that the genes you are born with and you have the power to transform the expression of your genes to create health or disease.
