While all disease has a clear genetic foundation, this article best expresses how we have far more control over our genes than previously thought. The Human Genome project finished earlier this decade has enabled a transformed understanding of how our genes synergize with every thing we do, think and expose ourselves to.
Most disease promoting genes do NOT determine disease risk. It is the choices we make consciously or unconsciously that largely determine our future health. “Our fate, dear Brutus, lies not in the stars but in ourselves”. What a great opportunity we have – even to change our destiny. We have choices set before us whereby we may “be transformed by the renewing of our mind”.
Welcome to the journey of transformed health.
