What to expect
It’s true: getting older is inevitable and your chronological age can only move in one direction. But you also have a biological age, which scientists can measure by assessing how your genes are expressed through epigenetics. Exciting new research shows that your bio age can actually move in reverse. By eating delicious foods and establishing common-sense lifestyle practices that positively influence genetic expression, study participants have reduced their bio age by just over three years in only eight weeks!
Now Dr. Kara Fitzgerald shares the diet and lifestyle plan that shows you how to influence your epigenetics for a younger you. In Younger You you’ll learn:
- How your epigenetics determine your age and level of health
- How DNA methylation powerfully influences your epigenetic expression
- The foods and lifestyle choices that most affect DNA methylation
- Simple swaps to your daily routines that will add years to your life
- Recipes and meal plans to reduce your bio age and increase vitality
- How to take care of your epigenetic expression at every stage of your life
We don’t have to accept a descent into disease and unwellness as we age as inevitable. With assessment tools for determining your bio age, recipes, and plans for putting it all into practice,Younger You helps you repair years of damage, ward off chronic disease, and optimize your health—for years to come.
