Beyond the diagnosis and symptoms, there’s a path to feeling better. Dive into the world of brain-body connection and learn how to optimize your health.
In this episode, Dr. Zimmerman and Dr. Shay dive deep into how genetics intersect with diet, inflammation, and brain function—dispelling popular myths and reframing what it truly means to eat for your unique biology.
Key Takeaways:
- 🧬 Genetics are the foundation—but not the full picture: Your genes reveal propensities (not destinies) around carb tolerance, food sensitivities, inflammatory risk, and metabolism—but they must be paired with lifestyle and functional testing for meaningful change.
- 🍽️ Why one-size-fits-all diets fail: From keto to Mediterranean, the “best diet” depends on your genetic makeup, metabolic function, and even personal food reactions. Genetic testing helps tailor nutrition to your biology—so you stop guessing.
- 🧠 Functional testing + lifestyle coaching = results: Genetic data has long-term value, but it's not actionable without a strategy. Learn why integrating personalized coaching and functional labs (like gut or mitochondrial testing) helps cut through overwhelm and get real results.
- 🚨 Beware of ‘magic bullet’ health trends: Dr. Shay warns against oversimplified solutions—like methylation-only tests or internet-fueled biohacks—and emphasizes the importance of prioritizing gene categories like inflammation, vitamin D receptors, and detox pathways.
