Falling for This Myth Could Give You Cancer?

Science has shattered the Central Dogma of molecular biology, proving that determinism—the belief that your genes control your health—is false. You actually have a tremendous amount of control over how your genetic traits are expressed, by changing your thoughts and altering your diet and your environment

  • In 1988, the experiments of John Cairns demonstrated even primitive organisms can evolve “consciously,” as DNA changes in response to its environment. The cell’s “consciousness” lies in its membrane, which contains receptors that pick up various environmental signals. This mechanism controls the “reading” of the genes inside the cell

  • The work of Dr. Bruce Lipton and other epigenetic researchers shows that the “environmental signals” also include thoughts and emotions—both of which have been shown to directly affect DNA expression

  • Contrary to the Newtonian belief in your body as a biological machine, epigenetic science reveals that you are an extension of your environment, which includes everything from your thoughts and belief systems, to toxic exposures and exposure to sunlight, exercise, and, of course, everything you choose to put onto and into your body. Epigenetics shatters the idea that you are a victim of your genes, and shows that you have tremendous power to shape and direct your physical health

      I'm sorry Ms Rebel, I am too lazy to read the article in its entirety, but I was unaware this was an issue. Yes genetics can cause predispositions to certain ailments and health issues, but who in their right mind is thinking, 'oh it's just going to happen anyways , I may as well just let it happen' Of course your way of living in large dictates your health. Granted you could do all you can and still fall ill, or not give a crap and get lucky, but one would have to be an idiot to assume that it isn't in their benefit to do what they can to stay healthy.

      That's not what determinism is...
