Using Stress Management to ALTER Your DNA
You are no longer the prisoner of your genes.
Epigenetics presents us with a hopeful message that we can use to our advantage: We are no longer the prisoner of our genes. Even if a parent died at a relatively young age of cancer or heart disease, our genetic relationship to that fact is no longer set in stone. By adopting a healthy lifestyle, which absolutely includes reducing stress, we may be able turn on or off certain genes that can help us avoid the same negative health outcomes that might have stricken a parent or a sibling.
