Active or Inactive Genes

Epigenetic programming determines the extent to which a particular gene is active or inactive. The basis for this is chemical modifications to the chromatin, the proteins that bind to our DNA, or to our DNA itself. While the DNA sequence remains unchanged, sections or entire chromosomes are influenced in their activity. At best, epigenetic imprinting results in the deactivation of potentially “bad” genes, allowing “positive” genes to be optimally expressed.

However, an unhealthy lifestyle can lead to the increasing activation of “bad” genes and the inactivation of “positive” genes. Additionally, our genomic switch becomes less accurate with age, resulting in the gradual dominance of “negative” gene activity.

Our Lifestyle Affects Our Epigenetic Programming

Our epigenetic imprinting can be specifically altered through our own lifestyle. In other words: for us, “positive” genes can be activated and “negative” genes can be deactivated.

Therefore, it is possible to counteract aging to a certain extent and improve health and well-being.

Our Report on Epigenetics

The report provides scientifically grounded information on epigenetics as well as concrete recommendations for lifestyle to optimize epigenetic programming.

Overall, our Epigenetics Information, which can be optionally ordered with each of our gene analyses, can contribute valuable to a longer and healthier life.
