What is epigenetics exactly?

Epigenetics Controls Genes

While you are born with a unique set of genes, your lifestyle and environment can cause certain genes to be turned off or on, the study of these changes is called epigenetics.

Epigenetics Is Everywhere

Leading scientists have shown that what you eat, where you live, when you sleep, how you exercise, even ageing – can all eventually cause genes to change from a healthy to an unhealthy state.

Epigenetics Can Be Reversed

Epigenetic testing can help you understand your risk of dementia and other diseases. You can use this information to make better health choices, reversing the damage and avoiding illness in later life.

So how is epigenetics linked to dementia?

The importance of genes in different dementias varies considerably. In rare cases, Alzheimer’s disease can be passed from one generation to another. This type of dementia usually affects people under the age of 65. However, while genetic factors may play a role, experts believe that lifestyle factors, including diet and exercise, have the most significant impact.
