Podcasts about nutrigenetics

In the second of this three part series, we're digging  into the world of nutrigenetics. Over the last several years, there has been a huge uptick in companies offering personalized diet recommendations ‘based on your own unique DNA!'. But how evidence-based are companies like GenoPalate? And are there potential downsides of over-focusing on how your DNA interacts with the foods you eat? Join us, two Registered Dietitians (well mostly Matt), as we answer these and a whole host of other questions about the science of Nutrigenetics. Want to support the show and get bonus episodes?

Personalised nutrition is big business, and it is forecast to get even bigger in the coming years. Some estimate that the sector will be worth between $15-$25bn before the end of the decade. So what are the opportunities? What is getting people exciting? And how can the food industry capitalise on this growing market? This episode of the Food Matters Live podcast was recorded live at our Inspiring Nutrition event, held in London in November 2023. Our panel reflects on why personalised nutrition has gained so much momentum in recent years, the products which are leading the way, and key lessons for companies looking to enter this space.

Curious about genetic testing and how beneficial it can be for your health? No…we're not talking about the ancestry testing that told you that you are 99.9% likely to prefer vanilla ice cream over chocolate. On this week's podcast, I have the pleasure of talking about nutrigenetics with Dr. Yael Joffe, the founder of 3x4 genetics! Think of your genetics as a blueprint that gives you an idea of who you are and how you respond to the world around you. Nutrigenetics, as you have put together is personalized nutrition based on our genetics and how our DNA influences the choices we make in life. Why start your healthcare journey with a genetic test? You only have to test once in your lifetime because genes don't change! What changes is how genes switch on and off based on our environment. How is this test different from another DNA test? 3x4 uses root cause analysis to view pathways that affect the cell (inflammation, metabolism, and detoxification processes) and groups together multiple genes and using a polygenetic risk score to measure your disease risk based on your genome. This week, Dr. Yael Joffe and I discuss: · FOUR ways genetics can be used as a screening tool: Helps you know which area of health to focus from the beginning. Results that give the most personalized lifestyle and nutrition protocol (with the help of a qualified       clinician) Allows you to determine specific lab values to follow up with Allows for targeted supplementation – choosing the supplements with the greatest impact on your health. · Red flags and questions to ask the genetic testing companies. · And so much more!

We understand that childhood obesity isn't something that can be solved (or even explained) in one hour, but we scratch the surface with fellow registered dietitian, Deirdre Pizzoferrato, about what are some possibilities for the root causes and what are some of the preventative measures we can take to help shift the numbers in a positive direction. Today, we unpack: What are some of the root causes of childhood obesity? How much does our genetics and epigenomics play a role? What is the primary prevention? Can nutrition during pregnancy impact the child's metabolism? How do these factors this impact the microbiome? How does this tie back into the gut-brain relationship? What are the different methods to childhood feeding? Let's get into it!  Want to take a look at some of the resources that Deirdre has to offer? Let us hook you up!

There is a constant barrage of information about cancer-causing chemicals, damaging pollution, and other toxins making us sick. With headlines like “11 potentially cancer-causing things you might use every day” and news stories about “Environmental pollution killing more people than war”, it's understandable that the public has become hyper-aware of the health consequences of chemicals and pollution. So, the prospect of protecting yourself and your loved ones with a simple diet change is intriguing.

What's the link between the food we eat and brain function? We've spoken on the Food Matters Live Podcast recently about nutrition and healthy ageing, but the link with cognitive function warrants an episode all of its own. There's a lot of current research into whether diet can slow down cognitive ageing and even reduce your risk of dementia. The notion of ‘brain food' is nothing new, but how much of what we're told stands up to scrutiny?   What does the research tell us?  And what should we be eating to keep our brains healthy? The brain makes up just two per cent of our bodyweight, but uses 20 per cent of our oxygen intake, 20 per cent of the glucose we consume, and needs more than 1,000 litres of blood every day. It would seem to follow that the nutrients we consume through the food we eat will have a big impact on our brain function. But we're interested in looking at the facts, the science, and the research that either supports or contradicts that assumption. In recent years it's been suggested there are particular foods which protect cognitive health, does Omega-3 have as big an impact as some would have us believe? And does it matter how it's consumed? What role do the food and supplements industries have to play in ensuring we're all getting the right nutrients to maintain cognitive function? We also look at the impact nutrition can have on Dementia, how what we eat can affect short-term cognitive function, and ask how you go about getting people to change their diets. Anne-Marie Minihane, Professor of Nutrigenetics and Head of Nutrition and Preventive Medicine in the Norwich Medical School, University of East Anglia Anne-Marie and her team's research programme investigates the impact of dietary components (marine omega-3- fatty acids and a Mediterranean-style dietary pattern) and APOE genotype on cardiovascular and cognitive health.  A particular focus is the molecular and physiological basis for the interactive impact of menopause and an APOE4  genotype (25% of the UK population) on neuropathology and overall brain health, and examining the ability of the omega-3 fatty acid DHA to mitigate the accelerated brain ageing in APOE4 females.  Norwich Institute of Healthy Ageing (NIHA) is focussed on providing agency, and the capability, opportunity and motivation to us as individuals and communities, to adopt heathier behaviours (eating, physical activity, socialisation, sleep etc.) aligned with recommendations In addition, at UEA, Anne Marie contributes to the teaching of the Medical and Bioscience students, in the area of nutrition and disease prevention and therapeutics.  She is academic advisor to ILSI Europe (a tripartite consortium of Industry, Academia and Policy organisations) and Deputy Editor of Frontiers in Nutrition. 

In this episode, I am speaking with Rajka Galbraith, MD about optimizing nutrigenetics for detox, hormonal and executive function.

In this episode, Dennis M. Bier MD and Young Career Editor Kevin C. Klatt, PhD, RD speaks with Dylan McKay, PhD, Assistant Professor of Food and Human Nutritional Sciences at the University of Mannitoba and senior author of the recently published AJCN manuscript, “Genosets for APOE and CYP7A1-rs3808607 variants do not predict LDL cholesterol lowering upon intervention with plant sterols in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial”. In this episode, we dive into the potential to predict LDL-lowering through a nutraceutical intervention (i.e. plant phytosterols) using genetic variants and more broadly, discuss the emerging field of nutrigenetics and the need for rigor and application of gold-standard clinical trial designs in the field. Be sure to connect with us on twitter Dr. MacKay: @DylanMacKayPhD; AJCN: @AJCNutrition; Dr. Klatt: @kcklatt.

Episode Highlights [04:02] How Miray Started Vivoo Miray is knowledgeable in bioengineering and epigenetics. Her expertise is on the Internet of Things and biosensors.  Vivoo means being alive in Spanish.  It is a home diagnostics tool that helps in tracking biometric markers through urine. The application can measure hydration, liver and kidney functions, urinary tract infections, and ketones.    [06:43] Why Health Tracking is Important When you are aware of your health statistics, it's easier to take action.   If you're tracking biometric markers regularly, you'll learn about their patterns and changes.  Miray shares that Vivoo is also adding new metrics like calcium, vitamin C, magnesium, salt consumption, and free radicals. [10:43] Looking Out for Oxidative Stress Oxidative stress is involved in cell damage and diseases like cancer.  Free radicals can lead to oxidative stress. They can be found in food, objects, and even cosmetics.  Oxidative stress is a byproduct of lipid peroxidation and malondialdehyde (MDA).  [14:21] Who Can Use Vivoo? Many athletes use Vivoo to track their status before and after runs.  Vivoo can help people become more proactive in their health and understand their bodies' needs better.  On average, 70% of Americans are calcium deficient and 60% are magnesium deficient.  [19:33] How Does Vivoo Measure Oxidative Stress? When Vivoo uses colourimetric tests, speific molecules activate and change colours depending on the level of the biometric being measured.  People's health issues can be addressed by simply taking the right supplements and vitamins.  For example, magnesium can help in 600 enzymatic reactions and be a treatment for depression.     [24:17] How Medicine and the Medical Industry Should Change Medicine often cures only the symptoms, not the disease.  While medicines and treatments can address your symptoms, they won't treat vitamin deficiencies that might cause more significant problems for your body in the future.  Medical trends point to more home diagnostic tools to help people live longer and healthier.   Diabetes and obesity threatens the life expectancy of younger generations. [31:19] The Mindset to Become Stronger Looking for investors is just similar to looking for customers. You contact leads, pitch your sales, and hope to get funding.  It also requires mental toughness and optimism despite uncertainties.  When you believe in negative thinking, it then becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.  [40:43] How Vivoo Can Help You Make Lifestyle Changes Take note that Vivoo only helps gauge biometric levels and you can make decisions based on them.  Many in the biohacking community want nutrient information. Miray's team added metrics for calcium, Vitamin C, magnesium, and salts.  Vivoo also explains the importance of tracking biometric markers.  We need supplementation because our food may not be in its prime condition. For example, Vitamin C in vegetables can oxidate to 90%.  Getting good food nowadays has become difficult due to processing, packaging, pesticides, and modifications.  [54:39] Vivoo and Tracking Biometric Markers Miray shares that Vivoo does not check one's overall health. When tracking liver functions, it only measures bilirubin which can check liver damage and cirrhosis.  The application also checks for proteins related to kidney function. Remember that even if you look healthy on the outside, it doesn't mean you're healthy.  7 Powerful Quotes   “...  I want to know this for my own health, and my family's health so I can track everybody's going.”   “And people like us — sometimes I see hesitancy and people like, why would I pee on a stick unhealthy? But like 70% of Americans are calcium deficient and absorption reduces 30% by age.”   “ …if I had done an ultrasound, even of his stomach — if we would have seen what was going on under the hood, we would have been able to stop the aneurysm happening in his aorta, and we would have been able to fix them. That's just so sad that I didn't have something that  could have scanned him and seen that, and fixed that before it became a deadly problem.”   “...we can have genetic disorders, environmentally-caused problems, etc. But our body has actually tools to overcome it most of the times, but they don't allow our bodies to basically find those tools and help itself. They just try to cure the symptom.”   “...this is exciting, because then we will have much more control. And we will be able to live longer and age better and have a healthier [life].”   "And I realised that my biggest weakness is when there's uncertainty, there's two ways. You can be either optimistic, believe in yourself and your dreams, and keep going, or you can go down and save."   “It's okay for you to cost a little bit, in my opinion. It's okay for you to want to live your life and to have a good retirement and some nice times before you depart this world. And it's worth fighting for.” Resources Gain exclusive access and bonuses to Pushing the Limits Podcast by becoming a patron!  Order your very own Vivoo strips now and use code Lisa25 to get a 25% off your purchase!  Lifespan by David A.

We hear a lot about our gut microbiome and the links between our gut health, mental health and general health - what does this mean in practical terms and how does it apply to you? To help explain the complex interplay between our microbiome, our genes, the food we eat and how this can impact our health and our predisposition towards certain diseases is nutrition dynamo, molecule nutritionist Dr Emma Beckett.Emma’s enthusiasm for her subject matter is contagious and our conversation wanders over some fascinating terrain - we talk about environment versus genetics in shaping our microbiome and, in this context, the value of twin studies. Emma explains how food can influence gene expression and how genes can influence the way we metabolise, taste and experience food? Does coriander tase like soap to you? If so, find out why.Another of Emma’s passions is scientific communication and I found her take on this really refreshing. Emma gives us some tips on how to be a critical consumer of all the information about food and diets we are bombarded with plus some advice on what foods are the best to feed our microbiome and keep it as healthy as possible.Emma's social media handles:Twitter @synapse101Instagram @Emmie_101Facebook @Dr Emma Beckett - Food & Nutrition ScientistLINKS MENTIONED IN THE PODCASTAustralian Dietary Guidelines: https://www.health.gov.au/resources/publications/the-australian-dietary-guidelinesAustralian Guide to Halthy Eating: https://www.eatforhealth.gov.au/guidelines/australian-guide-healthy-eatingHOW YOU CAN SUPPORT THE PODCASTPlease tell your friends about the podcast and share it with them.Follow me on Instagram @amanda_wellbeing_podcastFollow my Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/amandaswellbeingpodcast/?modal=admin_todo_tourIf you could rate and review the podcast on iTunes, that would be super helpful.Purchasing a book from my website is an easy way to support the podcast too.

“Conventional medicine is operating from an archaic view that we’re controlled by genes. This misunderstands the nature of how biology works.” - Dr. Bruce Lipton, Cell Biologist, Teacher & Author  Even though we’ve been taught otherwise! This quote sets up this next episode perfectly with Certified Epigenetic Coach, David Krantz. It’s time that we get back to the truth and be empowered to find out what health means for each of us individually (as we all have unique needs).  Here’s what you’ll learn in this episode:  That our genes don’t dictate our health destinies 100% of the time [even though we were taught otherwise] What epigenetics means and how it wraps around our health  What really drives evolutionary change for humans What’s possible for our own unique health journeys  What nutrigenetics is and how our diet is one of the most basic modifiable components of our environment [and an extremely important one] And, more!  You can also watch this episode here: https://youtu.be/XG9h2zZw2k8

Comenzando con una iniciativa para educar a los candidatos de acondicionamiento físico en varios aspectos del entrenamiento y la nutrición a través de nuestro contenido, hemos creado Passion for Fitness como una marca premium de acondicionamiento físico en línea. Nos complace compartir con ustedes lo que les diremos a nuestros oyentes sobre por qué los genes son importantes para un estilo de vida saludable. ¿Sabes por qué tu cuerpo reacciona de manera diferente a los diferentes alimentos? Por ejemplo, el café es un refuerzo de fuerza para algunas personas y la hipertensión para otras. Para algunos, una dieta alta en proteínas puede ayudar, pero puede no proporcionar los mismos beneficios de salud para otros. ¿Alguna vez te has preguntado por qué sucede esto? Tiene que ver con nuestro ADN / genes. El estudio de los genes determina la capacidad de su cuerpo para absorber ciertos nutrientes y alimentos que ayudan en el crecimiento y desarrollo de su cuerpo. Analizar sus genes puede ayudarlo a determinar qué alimentos, comidas y ejercicio son beneficiosos para su salud. Esta rama de la ciencia se llama genómica, que determina cómo reacciona nuestro cuerpo a los alimentos que comemos y cómo sudamos. Genomics también proporciona consejos nutricionales que serán útiles a nivel individual en comparación con los consejos nutricionales estándar. Este episodio se centra en Nutrigenetics y por qué nos importa.

Starting as an initiative to educate fitness aspirants on different aspects of workout & nutrition through our content, we have built Passion for Fitness as a premium online fitness brand. We are happy to share that we are going to educate our listeners on why genes matter for a healthy lifestyle. Do you know why your body reacts differently to different food items? For example for some people coffee is a strength booster while for others creates hypertension. For some, High protein diet may work, however it may not have the same health benefits for others. Have you ever wondered why this happens? It has to do with our DNA/genes. Study of genes defines the ability of your body to absorb certain nutrients & food items that helps in growth & development of your body. The analysis of your genes will help you determine which food, nutrition & exercises would be beneficial for your health.This branch of science is called Genomics which will determine how our body responds to food we eat & how we sweat. Genomics also provides recommendations on nutrition that will be beneficial at an individual level as compared to a standard nutrition advice. This episode focuses on Nutrigenetics and why it is important for us.

Is Nutrigenetics the future of Personalised Nutrition? Some scientists believe that genetic science is the holy grail of preventative medicine allowing us to tailor therapies and interventions according to an individual’s genetic make up. Did you know 99.9% of your DNA is genetically similar to other human beings? The 0.01% difference - that’s still 8 million genes - is responsible for the billions of variations from person to person. These cutting edge tests are creating a new path for Genetics and Personalised Nutrition. Such personalised insights are not only for obsessive biohackers - but anyone whose serious about understanding the best foods for their bodies. If you’ve ever wondered whether carbs, fats, lactose and caffeine are best suited to your biochemistry, you can discover this compelling information from a simple mouth swab. At YourPlate we offer DNAFit Nutrigenetic testing as part of our bespoke Personalised Health Plans - you can map your diet, fitness and sleep according to your genetic profile. Useful and interesting genetic markers include alcohol sensitivity, the obesity gene, bone density markers and even fitness genes so you can personalise your workout schedule. For weight loss plans and Type 2 diabetics, understanding carbohydrate sensitivity and glucose response (ie low, medium high, very high) can help to guide how effective following a low carb or very low carb diet will be. Visionaries see the kitchen of the future containing a “3D printer creating a bespoke piece of chocolate with the nutrients you need in your favourite shape!” Maybe Nutrigenetics will have a part to play in this one day.

It was easy to wake and sleep with the rise and set of the Sun, and we didn’t have electronic lights or electromagnetic frequencies impacting our circadian rhythms. With the mass onset of computers, televisions, global internet, and the big electronic grid that we now live in, we started breaking our natural cycles and instead, we started operating in patterns that weren’t in alignment with nature itself. This shift in patterning has impacted the body and the mind, and although many incredible technological advances have helped save lives, cure diseases, and create long-term sustainable health opportunities, there has been deep negative side as well. Inflammation, depression, fatigue, pain, leaky-gut, and dietary issues can all be related to a lack of living within and understanding the environments that allow us to thrive. Biohacking and Epigenetics David Krantz is an Epigenetic Health Coach and an expert in Nutrigenetics, Epigenetics, Nutrigenomics, and Biohacking. He helps people analyze their DNA and genetics to optimize the perfect diet, sleep patterns, and immunity building practices in life. By doing so, not only does your creative expression and cognitive performance accelerate, but genetic healing can occur and change the way you experience life for the best. In this episode, we dissect all of these topics and more. We also break down tips for biohacking, including topics revolving around circadian rhythm, blue light exposure, intermittent fasting, Omega 3 to Omega 6 ratio, toxins, meditation, heart rate variability, HIT exercises, cold exposure, earthing, and morning routines.

It has the potential to help solve the obesity crisis crippling healthcare systems, but few understand exactly what the diet is and most of us do not follow it, including increasing numbers of people who live in there - the Mediterranean diet. It is not a weight-loss regime such as the Atkins or 5:2 diets. It is actually not a prescriptive diet at all, rather a pattern of eating. Joining me this week on Food For Thought (link in my bio) to tell us all about the benefits of enjoying a Mediterranean diet is Professor Anne-Marie Minihane, Professor of Nutrigenetics at Norwich Medical School. We also explore how the Mediterranean diet encourages eating as a family which is now widely understood, to actively help people eat well and avoid excess, while we all know the TV dinner habit is linked to obesity.

Christa welcomes back Dr. Michelle Neil-Sherwood, DO and Dr. Mark Sherwood, ND, or as they like to be called, “Drs. M and M without the sugar” to talk about the science of nutrigenetics. Dr. Michele and Dr. Mark own and operate a wellness-based practice in Tulsa, Oklahoma called Functional Medical Institute. Their practice bridges the medical model with the functional model to teach people how to be completely and totally well. Drs. M & M use all kinds of unique and interesting tools to accomplish their mission and have many patient success stories where existing medical conditions have been reversed or eliminated. Christa repeats Dr. Michele’s opening statement and says, “So it’s not outside of our realm that we can actually be completely and totally well?  I love that.” A Little Background on the Subject The functional medicine approach gets to the root cause by looking at: Hormones Neuro transmitters Nutrition Lifestyle Looking at genetics: We are 99.9% genetically identical The .1% difference is what makes us unique That difference makes all the difference in the world – not everything works the same for everybody Traditional diets Workout programs Supplement types and quantities We’re born with our genes, but the experiential knowledge those genes have with the interaction of environment is called Epigenetics (the environment’s effect of the genes). For example, two identical twins can grow up and turn out a little different from each other because of the environment’s effect. Nutrigenetics – the genes effect on the environment How do our genes detoxify things? How do our genes influence what we need to be taking? How do our genes handle lipids; metabolize the fats we consume? How do our genes handle workouts we do? How do our genes handle inflammation? Simply stated, what we eat could actually influence our DNA and the expression of our DNA. Genetic Testing Drs. M & M utilize genetic testing to get the ideal breakdown of macro nutrients for each individual based on their genetic makeup. They formulate a unique nutrition and exercise plan based on those results to optimize body composition for each person. Benefits of testing include: Cutting edge technology Replaces trial and error Unravels the mystery for each person so they get specific, individual plans Optimization of health Saves time by getting to the answers faster Dr. Mark gives an example of how two people can have different reactions when consuming caffeine late in the day. One person may not be affected by a late afternoon cup of coffee, while the other person may be awake all night. Why? The person who is not affected at night by the coffee has a faster metabolism, so the caffeine is processed quicker. For the person whose metabolism is impaired, the caffeine is not processed as fast. To change metabolism: Reduce detoxification on back end (inside) = nutrigenetic effect Reduce toxins on the front end (outside) = nutrigenomic effect How does the genetic test work?  Get specific information here A sample ‘buckle swab’ of cheek cells is taken The sample is sent to lab and tested for 80 different genes specific for health, metabolic and exercise Results come back within 21-25 days Analyzed by Drs. M & M An individual plan is designed based on patient’s genetic and lifestyle information A sustainable life plan is created for the patient to use for the rest of their life Implementation may be either fast pace or a slow transition but results are definite Exercise Considerations Most people think that more exercise is necessary to lose weight but it can create inflammation and can be the wrong type and amount for our unique genetic makeup. Example:  A female patient, in her 40’s, chronic boot-camp person, 15-20 pounds overweight in excess fat, can’t get the fat off, frustrated, going to two boot camp classes daily several times a week, exhausted, and stressed out of her mind! The patient’s genetic testing revealed that she is of an endurance-based structure. Drs. M & M outlined a new exercise plan including: Only two boot camp sessions per week Walking, yoga, relaxation to “chill out” Once she incorporated these changes in her fitness routine, she immediately began to see results by allowing her body to adapt to the way it is supposed to be. Christa shares her similar story of being an athlete all of her life, being 50 pounds overweight while working out six days a week (but eating and drinking “trash”). She functioned in survival mode with no coping mechanisms to handle stress and no boundaries to shut down work, or do any type of self-care. Christa confesses that she is now more aware to her addictive tendencies towards donuts and wine, but it would have been great to have this type of testing information back then – it would have saved time because it was a long journey for her to figure things out. Taste Bud Genes (Phenylthiourea-Phenylthiocarbamide “PTC”) The spectrum of taste is determined by our genetics. There is an inherited genetic component that influences how we taste PTC, a single gene that codes for a taste receptor on the tongue. This gene is known as the PTC gene or TAS2R38. People can be classified as “tasters,” “non-tasters,” or somewhere in between. Tasters Wide taste spectrum Appreciates a broad range of tastes; bitter to sweet May have a dysfunctional dopamine receptor which indicates that sweet equals happy; therefore, food becomes happiness Non-Tasters Narrow taste spectrum Limited taste receptors Prefer or can eat more bland foods Doesn’t typically link food to happiness Food Addiction Must use caution when opening door to any type of “comfort” or “happy” food because it will cause the door to come flying open, which can activate the addition and lead to binge eating. Once the addiction cycle opens that door, it can swing open for a long time. Limit the shaming cycle by using Mind Zoning® or other types of mindfulness practices may help shorten the time that we are in the addiction. Once we know this information, we are empowered. We don’t have to ask for permission or forgiveness if we slip up; it is up to us to use the information and tools we have to be successful in all areas of our wellness journey. Access to Genetic Testing It’s not necessary to live in or to visit Tulsa, OK to get this genetic DNA test from Drs. M & M. You can access the information on their website and order your own sample test kit and mail it back for analysis. You’ll receive a 48-page comprehensive report within 3-4 weeks. Then, Drs. M & M spend 45-60 minutes (via Skype) reviewing it with you. They discuss your areas of vulnerability and set forth an action plan to fix those areas nutrigenomically. The plan is emailed to you as a written implementation synopsis. Cost Less than $500 for the entire package $349 + shipping for kit, testing and analysis, written report $100 for Skype consultation “We want people to have this so they can unlock the keys and the mysteries to these problems; how do I lose weight and keep it off, maintain muscle tissue and fight against heart disease and diabetes,” explains Dr. Mark. We provide the tools necessary to answer their own healthcare problems so they can manage their healthcare. Investing in yourself and your health saves money. Drs. M & M point out that their goal is to “take away the ignorance button.” Their patients are fully equipped to make educated adult decisions about their health, exercise and nutrition. They own their own healthcare. Final Tips Food is vitally important to health Food has changed and our health has declined over time because of it Low-fat foods lead to the obesity epidemic Using food to prevent disease Dr. Michele quotes Aristotle, “Let food be thy medicine, and thy medicine be thy food”. Which Food Plan Works Best? Eliminate the “standard American diet” foods such as: Sugars Grains Breads Corn Artificial sweeteners GMOs Soy MSG High-fructose corn syrup Bring your diet back to what we were designed and intended to eat: Fresh and raw fruits and vegetables Nutrient-dense foods with low sugars Nuts and seeds Healthy proteins Drs. M & M encourage their patients to follow an anti-inflammatory food protocol with no limits (just guardrails) so their taste buds never get out of control and dopamine receptors are not stimulated. People who stay on the path don’t tend to overeat. Supplementation Rule of 5 – if you’re taking over 5 supplements, there needs to be a good reason Too many supplements can overstimulate your body and can weaken or limit your defenses Antioxidants can be oxidative if used in excess Cost savings by streamline and identifying targeted supplementation needs Please check out Drs.

The most common problems are: People don’t eat enough of the good stuff People have a diet, deprivation mentality and a low-carb, low-fat mindset April states, “We have the answers to our best life; our healthier most wonderful life – if you want to run, jump, laugh, learn, swim, dance and play you need carbs. To lose weight and optimize energy – we need to eat more!” The dieting industry is a $64 billion industry that has taught us to care too much about what we look like instead of how our bodies function. By focusing more on how we feel, we can let that be our motivation including the benefit of weight loss. Christa reminds us that cooking your own food can a beautiful meditative process, a great opportunity to slow down, gain balance and is an act of self love. April offers tips for healthy easy meals to cook at home, that you can put in the freezer for the week. Check out her website for recipes that are simple and healthy, Food Journaling Everyone’s individual needs vary but most nutritionists agree that everyone should do food journaling. Here's why: Quicker time to discover what foods work or don’t work for your body Paleo, vegan, raw foods aren’t for everyone – different digestive needs Removing all sugars to break from that additive cycle Keeping a food journals helps us see how our bodies react to certain foods, which is the science of Nutrigenetics; how actual nutrients influence our genes at the molecular level. April helps to design a balanced, maintenance diet for people who are past the elimination phase of these foods by overcoming their addictive components. This creates a healthier lifestyle which is sustainable; and fuels our bodies sufficiently for exercise. April works with people who want to: Fuel with whole foods Optimize blood sugar Get their fat off Have a little fun Don’t like diets Proper Fueling for Exercise Fueling for Exercise “recreational exerciser” (more than walkers, but not marathoners) Have their macros optimized – balanced carbs, fats, proteins Fill in the gaps with healthy fats and healthy carbs What is a healthy carb? Whole foods - you won’t be able to read grams because “anything that is a healthy carb doesn’t have a “label” Starchy vegetables – nutrient dense types such as sweet potatoes, peas, legumes, parsnips, turnips Whole grains - brown rice and low glycemic index options such as basmati rice and quinoa Look for foods that give you carbohydrate energy that is slow and sustaining. The goal is to optimize blood sugars and stay away from anything refined. Refined is when heat is added and it breaks down the substance. For example, steel cut oats are cut in four ways but not modified, whereas “instant” or “quick” means it has been processed down to a level that will impact your blood sugar. “Stay close to the farm or the field, and as far away from as you can from the factory”, April suggest Standing Up for Carbs Let’s not lump all types of carbs together, healthy carbs are nutritious foods. Whole fruits are carbs, the fruit sugar/ fructose provides carbohydrate energy. There are bio-active chemicals that haven’t been named yet which exist in whole fruit and vegetables that have amazing functional properties. Christa offers a favorite quote from her colleague, Dr. Jerome Craig, “Those occasional treats that we have, there is no guilt, only consequences.” She says those consequences may lead to food cravings or increased weight, but we shouldn’t feel bad about it  When and What to Eat for Pre and Post Workout Morning Workout No need to eat before exercising if properly fueled from the day before If you are starving when you wake up, eat something small and wait a short while before exercising Mid-day You want to be properly fueled throughout the day for optimal performance If more than three hours have passed since your last meal, have a snack including a small amount of protein and a slow digestive carb like a piece of fruit Watch your fats before a workout or run because of digestive distress Evening If you’re going to work out within 2 hours of your evening meal, there should be no need to refuel before exercising Within 30 minutes after cardio you need both carbohydrate and protein, usually around 200 calories total with optimal 100 calories from protein and 100 from carbs. It’s necessary to restore the glycogen lost during the workout. The challenge might be to grab a healthy choice like: a handful of fruit and nuts greek yogurt a whole grain rice cake with peanut butter Try to resist reaching for the ice cream in the freezer or chips in the pantry as these will decrease your results and lessen the effectiveness of your workouts. April’s Pro Tips Properly fuel your body every 3-4 hours Sufficient proteins are important, but the body can only process 30-40g of protein at one time. This is why it is important to have a balanced amount of macro nutrients in almost every meal If you want to work out at your peak performance level you need to have healthy carbs in order to do so We'd love to hear how this episode has helped you on your fitness journey!

Nutrigenetics, the new frontier for supplements. We are more than our genes. By changing and improving the environment we are able to improve the expression of our genes. This video discusses, sticky blood, how to make the blood unstick, oxygenation of blood metabolism, methylation issues and brain reward deficiency syndrome. Must see for any one interested in improving their health. Nutrigenetics is a sub category of epi-genetics, the study of how the environment can impact the expression of our genes. We go through 2 innovative supplements that are nutrigenetic and impact the expression of our genes, for people who have methylation issues, sticky blood and a wide variety of behavioral orders related to the Dopamine Cascade.

With today's guest Nicola Pirastu we learn the difference between several common genetic terms, how your diet choices may or may not be good for your personal health and how your diet can impact your genes and their expressions. Genetics Vs Genomics The terms genetics and genomics sound alike, and they are often used interchangeably. But there are some important distinctions and similarities between genetics and genomics and how they affect our dietary patterns. But firstly, what do they mean? Genetics is the study of heredity, or how the characteristics of living organisms are transmitted from one generation to the next via DNA, and it comprises genes, the basic unit of heredity. Genetics dates back to Darwin and scientist Lamarck, whose studies of pea plants in the mid-1800s established many of the rules of heredity. Genetics involves the study of specific and limited numbers of genes, or parts of genes, that have a known function. In biomedical research, scientists try to understand how genes guide the body's development, cause disease or affect our eating or dietary patterns. Genomics, in contrast, is the study of the entirety of an organism's genes – called the genome. Genomics is the branch of molecular biology concerned with the structure, function, evolution, and mapping of genomes. Genomics is a much newer field than genetics and became possible only in the last couple of decades due to technical advances in DNA sequencing and computational biology. (It is notable that the term genomics was first coined in 1986 by a Jackson Laboratory scientist, Tom Roderick, Ph.D.) Genomics play huge roles in our dietary patterns as they help us know why our body relates to different foods and why our food preferences may or may not affect our overall health. For example two men of the same age were placed on a diet and eat fruits and vegetables high in sodium and saturated fat. One develops hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, and eventually atherosclerosis, while the other lives a long life without such chronic disease. In another case, two postmenopausal women consume similar diets low in choline. One develops liver dysfunction due to the choline deficiency, but the other does not. Why individuals experience different health outcomes even though they eat similar diets and practice comparable lifestyles is an important question that's been on the minds of nutrition and other healthcare experts in the medical community for decades. While it's long been suspected that genetics plays a critical role in determining how a person responds to dietary intake, only recently has research in the field of nutrigenetics demonstrated this. Learn the difference between nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics? Nutrigenetics: This is the study of the relationship among genes, diet, and health. Nutrigenomics: This involves the study of the interaction between nutrients and genes at the molecular level. Nutrition scientists have looked at whether genetic testing ends up improving eating behaviors. The evidence is mixed. A recent large randomized controlled study found there was little apparent benefit. The two weeks study comprised of 200 people. Three groups of participants were given personalized dietary advice, with variations based on their regular diet, including blood biomarkers such as cholesterol; and genetic variants. A control group was given conventional dietary advice. At the end of the study, the three groups that received personalized nutrition advice had all improved their eating habits, compared with the control group. But the improvements in each of the three groups were about the same. “It didn't seem to matter whether they were personalized based on current diet. Nutrigenetics and Personalized Nutrition The field of nutrigenetics is relatively new. In 2003, the Human Genome Project, which identified all the genes in human DNA and determined the sequence of the 3 billion chemical base pairs that make up human DNA, was completed. Knowing the sequences of the human genome opened the doors to examine the relationship among an individual's genetic makeup, dietary intake, and health outcomes. The excitement surrounding nutrigenetics stems from the notion that it's the foundation of personalized nutrition. Clearly, population-based dietary recommendations are helpful, but they aren't adequate for all individuals since people respond differently to diets. Personalized nutrition bases dietary recommendations on genetic predisposition to disease. The idea is that once personalized nutrition is integrated into routine care, patients can be genotyped for specific genetic variations, made aware of their nutrient deficiencies, and given strategies to dramatically reduce their risk. Effects of Genomic Research Genome-based research is already enabling medical researchers to develop improved diagnostics, more effective therapeutic strategies, evidence-based approaches for demonstrating clinical efficacy, and better decision-making tools for patients and providers. Ultimately, it appears inevitable that treatments will be tailored to a patient's particular genomic makeup. Thus, the role of genetics in health care is starting to change profoundly and the first examples of the era of genomic medicine are upon us. You can have a healthy diet not because it's good but because it's healthy.

Close your eyes for a moment and lets imagine. Imagine the hot sun beating down on your skin, the temperature is just warm enough that with the right amount of exercise you are able to break a sweat. The smells of the earth begin making its way into your nose, meandering through your olfactory station into you head and then down into your lungs. The soft soil between your fingers is like kneading soft clouds. You look up and two hours have flown by and you only meant to be in the garden for 10 minutes to harvest the ripe tomatoes for dinner. And what is this? You still have on your work suit. But you know what? You don't care because the anxiety in your brain has gone away and the symptoms of thyroid dysfunction are now fading because the food you are growing is now helping your body repair itself. Now, if you could only get your healthcare team to understand this whole phenomena.
