Genes are important, but they're not the whole story. Our lifestyle, particularly our diet, physical activity, exposures to chemicals and toxins is huge. The methylation aspect, think of it like a switch turning your genes off and on. And when we are doing good things to simplify it, you're often causing positive epigenetic changes.
