Second, the discussion distinguished between genes and SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms), emphasizing the importance of specific variants. Third, Dr. Hausman-Cohen pointed out the abundance of supplements and foods available, noting that genomics enables a precise approach to health optimization.

(15:45) Alicia speaks about recognizing she could not do some practices by hand. (17:00) There are genes linked to brain inflammation.(20:53) Hormone receptors are super important for cognition. (24:30) Doing things that are absolutely demanding is essential for health. (27:50) When we attack inflammation and oxidative stress, it helps everyone. (30:17) People who have the lowest clotho have a higher chance of dying before seventy-five.  (37:30) Genomics is not just for people having cognitive decline. (41:30) To work on improving your health you need to be working with a person that is looking at all the factors. (45:30) The game change is able to untangle people with pain or brain fog. (50:00) One thing that keeps Alicia up at night is how to get doctors excited so they do a little bit of learning for many rewards. (55:15) Alicia would love to be celebrating a people becoming healthier.
