EPISODE 119: Your health largely depends on your genetics, and those are set in stone.

So if you're predisposed to Alzheimer's or cancer, there's nothing you can do, right? 

Wrong! There is a link between our genes and environmental health that, if we know how to leverage it, can significantly improve our health and help us prevent what we have long believed to be inevitable. 

Today’s guest, the renowned longevity expert Kashif Kahn, is here to tell us all about it!

Kashif is the founder and CEO of The DNA Company, a healthcare company pioneering personalized medicine through unique insights into the human genome. He is also the author of The DNA WAY and an official TEDx speaker. 

In this episode, we discuss functional genomics, personalized medicine, environmental health, and hormonal imbalances.
