Description

This week on the OPP, we're decoding our genetics by analyzing 23&Me data with Dr. Anthony Jay. Author of Estrogeneration and a previous guest on the OPP (#97), Dr. Jay is back to talk Epigenetics by using our 23&Me data to look at our single nucleotide polymorphisms, or snips (SNP). These polymorphisms (not mutations), or DNA snips are the most common variations in our genes, playing a direct in the function of those genes and serving as biological markers for certain disease risks, among other health implications. Dr. Jay analyzes 23 & Me to investigate 3 key areas: detoxification, disease risk, and overall health. On this episode, Dr. Jay analyzes my DNA snips and you'll hear: How single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP or snips) occur and how scientists use them as biological markers What these DNA snips reveal about our disease risks and other epigenetic tendencies The 3 crucial areas Dr. Jay analyzes My results What our detox genes reveal about our affinity for adrenaline, our ability to clear medications and caffeine from our system, and why bad coffee is a real thing What we can learn about our genetic risk for certain diseases - especially Alzheimer's The exact genes and snips we need to looks at for this data The MTHFR gene, methylation and what you need to know about folic acid before you take another supplement Dr. Jay also reveals the genes that 23&Me stopped reporting and why this should cause concern The Top 3 Books Dr. Jay has read this year And more…
