Change Your Genes, Change Your Life

Broadcast on March 21, 2023
With Dr. Kenneth R. Pelletier
Hosted by Helané Wahbeh, ND

We are not victims of our genetics. We now know that only 5% of our health and life expectancy is governed by our genes. According to Dr. Kenneth R. Pelletier, there is a new science of epigenetics which demonstrates that our day-to-day, year-by-year choices govern which of our genes will be expressed and which will be suppressed. Influences include stress management, meditation, visualization, diet and nutrition, environmental toxins, social connections, and a sense of purpose to determine optimal health and extended longevity.

In this session, you’ll discover:

  • A clear understanding of the role of epigenetics in your health and longevity
  • An optional diet based on science rather than "diet of the day" fads
  • Three characteristics of the "Blue Zone" communities where people live to 100 and beyond
The views expressed are specific to the author/speaker and may vary from the perspectives of The Shift Network's participants, staff, or other speakers.
