The Aging Project Genetics and genes - a beginner’s guide to why they matter, with Dr. Yael Joffe.
Dr. Yael Joffe is a world-leading expert in nutrigenomics, and is here with us to share her incredible knowledge and passion for the way our lifestyle and dietary choices can change the way our DNA dictates how well we age. She is the co-author of three books, ‘It’s Not Just Your Genes’, ‘The SNP Journal’, and ‘Genes To Plate’, and the founder of 3x4 Genetics, a company that has developed a life-changing genetic test designed to give people personalised and actionable health recommendations based on their unique DNA. Dr. Yael is dedicated to training medical practitioners to use the testing to understand and help their patients on a deep, difference-making level.
We’re so excited to welcome Dr. Yael to the podcast – she has a knack for simplifying this incredibly complex topic so that everyone can understand how insight into our DNA is the key to aging well.
Join Shelley for episode #5 of Season Two of The Aging Project Podcast, as she chats to Dr. Yael Joffe about:
- How the death of her grandmother changed her career, and set her on a whole new life path
- How our diet and lifestyle choices change the way our genes switch on and off, creating an opportunity for healing and great health and longevity
- How insight into your DNA allows you to take action that will help you age well
- How cruciferous vegetables like broccoli and cabbage have magical powers over our Genes
- The incredible power of phytonutrients to work with the body to create good health, and how they’re more effective than pharmaceuticals
- How disease is the result of our lifestyles not matching our DNA
- How our DNA dictates the way we experience hunger, appetite, and fullness
- The well-known BRCA gene, and how you can delay or prevent it from expressing itself and creating breast cancer
The Aging Project is on a mission to discover and share the secrets to aging well, and to empower you to make great choices for your health and wellbeing in your forties and beyond.
