Today we are joined by Dr. Ben Lynch, a naturopathic doctor, the President of Seeking Health, author of Dirty Genes, a pioneer in genetic health and an outspoken voice in the functional health community. We're diving deep into the topic of genetic health and as Dr. Lynch says, “The best way you can influence your genes is having the mindset that you are the boss of your genes.” This episode is packed with knowledge about how to be the boss of your own health, and through testimonials, Dr. Lynch shares the importance and power of functional wellness.
