0:00.0	If you're the go-to person in your business, there's only a certain amount of work that you can do before you just crack.
0:06.0	It's the same as your genes. You can't overload. The glutothiod is a massively important compound and we're using it up all the time in our bodies.
0:13.0	Methylphalate supports methylation. Methylation supports many, many things.
0:18.0	If your energy of our gene is totally fine, no variance at all,
0:22.3	but you're deficient in Raba Flavin, it won't go.
0:24.6	You'll be amazed when you have a positive mindset and a target,

1:30.6	fear and feeling like you're destined by whatever your genetic profile reveals. Rather,
1:36.6	he really understands the role of diet and lifestyle and environment and how your genes are
1:41.3	expressing themselves. So you might not even need to know your actual genetic code to still make incredible changes.
1:47.5	That said, this is still a very deep dive into genes, how they work, what your DNA says about you.
1:54.1	There will be a full transcript, have no fear, at the show notes.
