"Hello friends! Have you ever wondered why your friend feels amazing on a certain probiotic, but it does absolutely nothing for you? The secret is hiding in your DNA. Today, we are talking about your genetics, and how knowing your specific 'SNPs' can change your life."
- Understanding Epigenetics: We have genetic variants that can be turned on or off by our diet and lifestyle.
- The FUT2 Gene: About 20% of the population is considered a non-secretor, or homozygous for the FUT2 variant. This means you don't produce the sugar needed to feed specific strains of bifidobacteria.
- A Mother's Breakthrough: Finding out that I am a non-secretor helped me realize my kids might be deficient too. Targeted probiotics are crucial for me daily, and for my children in the first years of life.
- Personalized Supplementation: Other common genetic factors, like being part of the 5% of the population that desperately needs CoQ10 supplementation for cellular energy and to fight off major fatigue due to another SNP.
"When you know your genetic SNPs and support them, you directly change your health. But what happens when the things we take to get healthy are actually making us deficient? In our next episode, we have to talk about the hidden cost of medications."
