Sara Gottfried's video: We Are More Than Our Genes shorts epigenetics

Since we sequenced the human genome in 2003, “epigenetics” gives us hope that we are more than just the aggregate of our genes. As Francis Collins MD/PhD once said in a brilliant summary of epigenetics, genes load the gun but environment pulls the trigger. Might the air we breathe, the food we eat, the alcohol we drink or not drink, the trauma nearly all of us experienced, even the emotions we now feel, affect not only our genes but those of children and their children?

I practice precision, functional, and integrative medicine. What does that mean? I look at the genetics, environment, and lifestyle of an individual and together we design ways to optimize health, function, and performance. It's not one-size-fits-all but a way to personalize your nutrition, sleep, stress levels, inflammation, detoxification, and hormone balance. I take care of all types of people from conscious leaders to professional athletes, and everyone in between. We use any means at our disposal from genomic pathway testing to VO2 max, from clinical labs to next-gen biomarkers like continuous glucose monitoring and other digital biomarkers, from bioidentical hormones to peptides. My goal is to help people live life fully, on their own terms, and buoyed by the best possible healthspan.
