The science of epigenetics (the study of how our genes and environment interact) and nutrigenomics (how diet influences gene expression) is poised to radically change medicine.
In our clinic, Dr. Davis has partnered with Neurobiologix, a developer of nutritional supplements, to perform genetic testing and pair your individual DNA makeup with targeted dietary and nutraceutical recommendations.
The Science Behind Nutrigenomics
Nearly all diseases start with inflammation at the cellular level. With aging and inflammation, our genes are not able to perform the processes that keep us vital and healthy.
Understanding our genes allows us to know what diseases our body is at high risk of developing. By influencing our genetic expression with lifestyle modifications and nutraceutical support (supplements), we can encourage our DNA to perform at the most optimal level.
This infographic from Harvard University nicely explains what we are trying to achieve with nutrigenomics. Even though it references children, the same concepts apply to adults.
