About this product

Instant National Bestseller A shocking look at the principles of epigenetics and the ways common environmental and lifestyle factors can radically rework our genes―causing chronic and mental illnesses―and the revolutionary plan to reverse these ailments through targeted methylation support to reach optimal health and longevity and permanently prevent disease. “Myth busting the assumption that genes lead to disease, Dr. Ben Lynch provides a do-it-yourself guide to personalizing your health through the lens of susceptibilities, none of which signify your destiny. Dirty Genes teaches the power that we have to heal, against all odds.” ― Kelly Brogan, MD, New York Times bestselling author of A Mind of Your Own After suffering for years with unexplainable chronic health issues, medical expert Dr. Ben Lynch discovered the root cause―“dirty” genes. Genes can be “born dirty” or merely “act dirty” in response to your environment, diet, or lifestyle―causing lifelong, life-threatening, and chronic health problems, including cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, anxiety, depression, reduced brain function, digestive issues, obesity, cancer, and diabetes. Based on his own experience and successfully helping thousands of clients, Dr. Lynch shows you how to identify and optimize both types of dirty genes by cleaning them up with targeted and personalized plans, including:Healthy eating
Good sleep
Stress relief
Environmental detox
And other holistic and natural means
Regulating gene expression can also aid in curing the factors that lead to addiction and help eliminate brain fog and chronic fatigue. Many of us believe our genes doom us to the disorders that run in our families. But Dr. Lynch reveals that with the right plan in place, you can eliminate symptoms and optimize your physical and mental health through a plan for holistic health―from your microbiome to your brain―and ultimately rewrite your genetic destiny.
