Genetics
A word on genetics:
Family history is useful in identifying pathologies an individual may be predisposed. HOWEVER, you body is not a machine , it is a complex ecosystem. Ecosystems change and evolve due to environmental stressors, machines do not. Therefore, you control what genes your body expresses based on what internal and external environments you create. Epigenetics has taught us that genes have on and off switches determined by environment that discourages the activation of pathological genetics. Therefore, if you think you are doomed by your genetics, fear not. Come into Functional Health Evaluation today and allow us to help you create a bodily environment that deactivates disease.
