How Our Beliefs And Thoughts Impact Our Biology And Gene Expression with Dr. Bruce Lipton

This episode is brought to you by Rupa Health, BiOptimizers, LMNT,
and Apollo. There is powerful science behind how our beliefs inform
our genetic expression. It’s not our genes alone that dictate our
health outcomes, rather it’s the biology of belief that determines
our destiny.  Today on The Doctor’s Farmacy, I’m excited to
talk to Dr. Bruce Lipton about how exactly our thoughts determine
our genetic expression, and how we can influence our health using
our minds. Dr. Bruce Lipton is a stem cell biologist and author of
the bestselling books, The Biology of Belief, Spontaneous
Evolution, and The Honeymoon Effect. Dr. Lipton is the recipient of
the prestigious Japanese Goi Peace Award and has been listed in the
top 100 of “the world’s most spiritually influential people” by
Briton’s Watkins Journal for the last 13 years. This episode is
