Ever wondered if you could change your life and biological age by simply “pressing a few different buttons?” This episode explores the fundamental role of epigenetics with molecular biologist Hannah Went from Everything Epigenetics and founder of TruDiagnostic, who joins us to discuss the hyper-function theory of ageing and how cellular signalling pathways could be key players in age-related diseases.
Imagine your body as an orchestra, with your genome as the grand piano and epigenetics as the conductor, masterfully directing the symphony of your life. Hannah strips back the layers of our body’s genetic blueprint to reveal how epigenetics act as an ever-changing force, influencing everything from our physical attributes to emotional resilience. Discover the complex world of the transcriptome, proteome, metabolome, and phenome, each contributing to what makes us uniquely human. Hannah also highlights the profound ways in which our environment and lifestyle choices can play a pivotal role in shaping who we are.
