The Synthesis of Wellness®

24. Using the Power of Epigenetics to “Hack Your Genes” & Overcome Self-Limiting Beliefs Plus Practical Strategies for Safeguarding Your Gene Expression


Listen Later

Welcome to another episode of The Synthesis of Wellness Podcast! This in a super in-depth episode dedicated to understanding how genetics work, how epigenetics work, and how you can essentially "hack" the way your genes are expressed in order to optimize you biological state.


Topics:


1. Introduction

- Defining epigenetics and its role in gene expression

- Overcoming limiting beliefs about genetic predispositions


2. DNA Structure and Organization

- Nucleotides: The building blocks of DNA

- Double helix structure and base pairing

- Chromosomes and genes: Organizing genetic information


3. Epigenetic Regulation: DNA Methylation

- DNA methylation and its impact on gene expression

- Enzymes involved in DNA methylation (DNMTs)

- Factors affecting DNA methylation, including toxins


4. Epigenetic Regulation: Histone Modifications

- Histone acetylation and deacetylation

- Other histone modifications and their role in gene expression


5. Epigenetic Regulation: Non-coding RNAs

- Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) and their regulatory functions

- MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs)

- Influence of ncRNAs on gene transcription and expression


6. Strategies for Optimizing Epigenetic Expression

- Dietary considerations for DNA methylation support

- Impact of polyphenols and SCFAs on histone acetylation

- Sleep optimization and its effect on gene expression


7. Environmental Factors and Epigenetics

- Avoiding toxins and their influence on epigenetic regulation

- Role of infections in epigenetic modifications

- Air pollution, PCBs, phthalates, and their impact on gene expression


8. Mindfulness and Stress Reduction

- Mindfulness practices to mitigate epigenetic dysregulation

- Reducing stress and its effects on gene expression
