This conversation about genetics will change the way you view your personal health and wellness journey.
Dr Libby Lindsay is an author, speaker and health entrepreneur whose personal health background led her to discover the significance of genetics on so many wellness techniques. She is the founder of Ingeneous, a DNA wellness portal that’s focused on genetics, and has helped more than 4,000 clients in the last 10 years.
In short, genetics impact just about everything. But you CAN alter your genetics and you CAN overcome genetic predispositions. In this episode of Well & Good, Art and Libby touch on:
How Libby got so desperate to overcome her migraines, she went to a Fijian medicine man who chewed up a concoction in his mouth and spat it into her nose
Her years of health issues and how it led her to genetic testing and ways to change the way they work
The three changes that completely rewrote her health story in three weeks, including going from being lactose intolerant to drinking milk
A basic level break down into what genes actually are - what they do, how they impact health and how 99.9% of everyone’s DNA is the same
What nutrigenomics is and why you should know about it
How to make permanent changes to your genetics, and how the critical thing is the timing of what you’re doing
How your genetics impact the type of foods or diets you’re best suited to, or even the flavours you do and don’t like
The most common genetic issues people have - how most people are suffering from the same types of things
Why only 5-10% of people CAN’T address their health issues by focusing on their genes
How your genetics impact your body type, muscle gain and fat loss
