GenoType 1 The Hunter Tall, thin, and intense, with an overabundance of adrenaline and a fierce, nervous energy that winds down with age, the Hunter was originally the success story of the human species. Vulnerable to systemic burnout when overstressed, the Hunter’s modern challenge is to conserve energy for the long haul. GenoType 2 The Gatherer Full-figured, even when not overweight, the Gatherer struggles with body image in a culture where thin is “in.” An unsuccessful crash dieter with a host of metabolic challenges, the Gatherer becomes a glowing example of health when properly nourished. GenoType 3 The Teacher Strong, sinewy, and stable, with great chemical synchronicity and stamina, the Teacher is built for longevity—given the right diet and lifestyle. This is the genotype of balance, blessed with a tremendous capacity for growth and fulfillment. GenoType 4 The Explorer Muscular and adventurous, the Explorer is a biological problem solver, with an impressive ability to adapt to environmental changes, and a better than average capacity for gene repair. The Explorer’s vulnerability to hormonal imbalances and chemical sensitivities can be overcome with a balanced diet and lifestyle. GenoType 5 The Warrior Long, lean, and healthy in youth, the Warrior is subject to a bodily rebellion in midlife.With the optimal diet and lifestyle, the Warrior can overcome the quick-aging metabolic genes and experience a second, “silver,” age of health.

Download or read book Turn Off the Fat Genes written by Neal Barnard, MD and published by Harmony. This book was released on 2010-04-28 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breakthrough genetic research indicates that genes are not just onoff switches for characteristics we can't control (like gender or eye color). Some genes, including those that shape our bodies, actually adapt to outside influences. In Turn Off the Fat Genes, Dr. Neal Barnard draws on this cutting-edge research to create a revolutionary new program for activating thin genes and suppressing fat genes, a dramatic tool for sculpting away excess pounds to reveal the healthy, vital body that nature intended. In Turn Off the Fat Genes, Dr. Barnard begins by explaining the dynamics of nutrition and its impact on genetics. Once you understand how the genes that control your shape can be influenced, the next step is positive intervention. The heart of Dr. Barnard's book is a three-week gene-control program (complete with menus and recipes) specifically designed to influence the five key genes that determine: (1) which foods you prefer, (2) the strength of your appetite, (3) whether your calories are burned or stored as fat, (4) how fast you burn calories, and (5) your muscular type and ability to exercise. Dr. Barnard's program enables all of us to enjoy the same virtually effortless weight control as the naturally thin people we have always admired.

Download or read book Summary of Dr Gundry s Diet Evolution written by Smart Reads and published by . This book was released on 2021-02-27 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NOTE: This is an unofficial summary & analysis of Dr. Steven Gundry's "Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution" designed to offer an in-depth look at this book so you can appreciate it even more. Smart Reads is responsible for this summary content and is not associated with the original author in any way. It contains: -Chapter by chapter summaries -Trivia questions-Discussion questions And much more! Author Dr. Steven Gundry in school, his interest was in Human Evolutionary Biology -- an interest that has informed all of his medical work, but that has become particularly relevant in his current work with the Diet Evolution program. He completed his undergrad degree in the Honors program at Yale University, graduated Alpha Omega Alpha from the Medical College of Georgia School of Medicine, completed residencies in General Surgery and Thoracic Surgery at the University of Michigan, and served as a Clinical Associate at the National Institutes of Health. At the NIH, he developed methods and treatments to prevent and reverse damage in coronary arteries and heart muscle cells -- a precursor to his later inventions. Upon recognizing the power of proper diet and lifestyle choices on health and longevity, Gundry left his post at Loma Linda University to open The International Heart and Lung Institute. There, he began offering the Diet Evolution program to former heart surgery patients as a restorative method. Before long, however, others began showing up, looking for help in their weight loss and health. He continues to practice surgery part-time, but most of his days are devoted to training and supporting people in the methods of the Diet Evolution. Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution: Turn Off the Genes That Are Killing You and Your Waistline details the exact program that has changed the lives of so many of Dr. Steven Gundry's patients. And in three stages, he explains how you can do the same. Gundry's background is in heart surgery, and he had become accustomed to "fixing" the body's warning signs in his patients through drug prescriptions and surgeries. In 2001, however, everything changed for him. He met a patient who had reversed severe and inoperable arterial damage simply by changing his diet. Gundry then began studying the effects of diet through a human evolutionary biology lens and started to develop the Diet Evolution. As he worked with patient after patient, guiding them through the program, he consistently saw the same results: completely regained health, along with substantial weight loss. He left his position as a cardiothoracic professor and department chair to build a new career advocating this new-found knowledge.The premise of the program is simple: Human genes evolved over time to make certain specific interpretations about you based on the foods that you consume. Your genes' #1 objective is to preserve and propagate the species -- and you are either helping that endeavor, or you're hindering it.The foods you eat, meanwhile, act like keys that unlock certain codes in your genes. Just like the Internet is vast and essentially limitless in what you can do with it -- your genes hold nearly infinite possibility. And just like typing an address into a Web browser, which tells your computer where specifically to go, the food you eat tells your genes what specifically to do.The modern diet sends messages to your genes that indicate that you are interfering with the continuation of the species. Consequently, your genes unleash killer processes that cause you to deteriorate more quickly.By reversing your diet backward in time -- so that it more closely resembles that of our early ancestors -- you can send new signals to your genetic autopilot that shuts down those killer processes and turns on life-giving processes.The Diet Evolution is a three-phase program that gradually transitions you from a modern diet to a largely plant-based, raw diet.
