Episode notes

If we look to ACL, PCL injuries, what are you looking for? Is it ligament strength? Is it bone density? Are there other variables in there that we really need to be aware of? Maybe. But the first thing you do is you just take something like in this data bank from the UK,. There was something like 10,000 people who had an ACL tear. And then you take all of those people and say, what's the difference? You don't have to make any presuppositions. It's still worth integrating that into your training regimen since it's so easy to do.

Can you predict your future health using genetics? Neil deGrasse Tyson and co-hosts Chuck Nice and Gary O’Reilly explore advances in genetic testing, polygenic risk scores, and the future of genetics with geneticist Dr. Stuart Kim.
