Epigenetic Nutrition is ancestral sourced whole food nutrients selected through a study of the non-DNA memory or shadow memory in your genes.

Significant advancements have been made in the field of genetic genealogy. Scientific studies now show that there is much more to our genetic makeup than just our DNA. Our DNA or genes are only part of the equation. Human DNA is 99.9% the same. What makes us different – have different color eyes and hair, different heights, etc. – is the memory in our genes (epigenetics).

Think of it this way – your genes are like soldiers – they will do whatever the general instructs them to do. Your epigenome is like the general spouting off orders to your gene soldiers. Your epigenome determines if a cell becomes a heart cell, brain cell or a skin cell. It provides constant instruction to your genes.

The core of genetic health is to ensure your genes are expressing themselves ‘healthily.’ Cancer, for example, is your DNA expressing itself in a harmful way.

A large part of keeping your genes healthy and your body functioning properly is good nutrition. Your DNA ancestry may play a big role in determining which nutrients your epigenetics with respond positively to. Through genetic genealogy, anthropology and archeology, scientists are now able to determine what your hunter-gatherer ancestors ate tens of thousands of years ago.

Because our bodies evolve so slowly, our DNA is almost exactly the same as it was during hunter-gatherer times. Many scientists agree that our genes have not evolved to consume a diet of processed foods, grains, or milk (this is often referred to as the Paleolithic Diet or the Caveman Diet). The ideal diet to keep us healthy and reduce the likelihood of disease is that of our early Paleolithic ancestors. But these diets don’t take into account that ‘caveman food’ isn’t readily available.
