Nutrition's Role in the Epigenetic Origins of Health and Disease with Judith Finlayson

Since the time of mapping out the genome in 2000, we’ve continued
to connect the dots between generational experiences, particularly
trauma and in utero exposures, and the development of health and
disease. We’ve seen, for instance, from survivors of the Dutch
Hunger Winter or the Holocaust, epigenetic changes that are passed
on to future generations. My guest in this podcast, best-selling
author and former journalist Judith Finlayson, discusses the
fascinating history that led to our current understanding of
epigenetic expression. She shares research from her book, You Are
What Your Grandparents Ate: What You Need to Know About Nutrition,
Experience, Epigenetics and the Origins of Chronic Disease, and
dives into the dietary and lifestyle choices she prioritizes to
support optimal genetic expression. Listen, learn, and leave a
review/rating wherever you're listening to New Frontiers! Thanks
