A healthy lifestyle supports our body’s innate ability to heal itself and can deactivate genetic predispositions toward disease. The science of epigenetics explores how lifestyle affects the way our genes express themselves without changing our actual genetic code. Join Dr. Theresa Oswald to learn, for example, how physical activity and time spent in nature help to neutralize genetic tendencies toward obesity and heart disease, and how we need to make healthy lifestyle choices available in all communities.
