Don’t Get Stuck With Your Family Genes

February 21, 2010

Now you can decide which of your genes are “turned on”. Hence you don’t need to worry about your family history or inheriting bad genes. For the first time, you could determine which genetic codes are played out.

Instead of harping on good family genes, you could take active part in your own state of health by turning on the genes that boost longevity—and turning off the genes that dictate the cells to die.

Studies have shown that through food, nutrition, exercise and stress reduction (yoga, meditation, living in NOW, and spiritualism), one can eliminate bad genes and replace them by good genes. It is the high calorie content in your diet that leads to premature aging and reduces longevity. Consume foods with low
glycemic index (complex carbohydrates, fruits and cruciferous vegetables and adequate proteins.

New research have found a gene that extends life-span dramatically. Scientists isolated a family of life-protecting genes called Sirtuins (silent information regulator proteins).

They transmit signals to every cell in your body that practically cancel out the effects of aging. Thus, the process that leads to cell death is brought to crawl, buying your body more time to repair DNA damage that brings life to an end.

Now the question is how to wake up sleeping sirtuin genes. Now we know that these genes can be awakened and called upon to extend life-span, naturally and safely.

As we mentioned diet rich in calorie reduce life-span. Now you don’t have to starve yourself to switch on your longevity gene. You can activate it with a simple nutrient called Resveratrol.
