Description

If you’ve ever been told your “MTHFR gene is the problem,” this episode is going to be a breath of fresh air. I’m joined by functional genomics expert Jaclyn Downs to break down what our genes actually tell us about our health — and why focusing on a single gene completely misses the bigger picture. We talk about how thousands of gene variants work together, how nutrients can support gene function, and why this approach can guide everything from fertility to inflammation to long-term health. If you’re curious about precision nutrition and personalized wellness, you’ll love this conversation.
