Much like a car's VIN number, your DNA sequence is a fixed invariable.However, more information is needed to know how your car runs, like oil and fuel levels, mileage, temperature. Similarly, your overall health - or how your body "runs" - is better determined by your epigenetics which are affected by variables such as fitness, nutrition, environment, stress, and aging. Just as you cannot change your car's VIN number - you cannot change your DNA sequence.However, you can optimize your car's performance levels by doing things like using premium gas, maintaining appropriate tire pressure, or regularly changing the oil.Likewise, you can optimize your health by changing your epigenetics through variables such as fitness, nutrition, environment and healthy aging.Our listeners get a special discount on their first kit by using the code ATBS at checkout.
