Listen Later

Alex is the founder of Nutrition Genome and creator of the software Genetrition™! He is a second generation nutritionist and co-owner of Swanson Health Center, a private family clinical nutrition practice that has been in business for over 40 years. He's also the creator of the popular blog, The Health Beat.

Alex is a Stanford trained epigenetic MASTER. He helped me understand that epigenetic testing (when it’s properly interpreted) is empowering because genes aren’t fixed. In fact, your genes are like light switches you can turn on and off depending on how you live your life.

Here’s what you’ll learn:

  • Paleo foods that may be harmful if you have the Alzheimer’s gene
  • The foods that will reduce your risk of Alzheimer’s
  • The 3 types of Alzheimer’s
  • The protocol that has actually reversed Alzheimer’s
  • Whether the keto diet is helpful for those with Alzheimer’s
  • How to use intermittent fasting to prevent Alzheimer’s
  • Other genes that are associated with Alzheimer’s and how to optimize them
  • The supplement that detoxes aluminum
  • Why supplements alone aren’t the answer
  • Lifestyle suggestions to avoid Alzheimer’s
  • How much exercise is enough
  • How to increase BDNF (brain fertilizer)
  • And so much more!
