TRPV1 Gene: Receptor for Spicy Foods, Sensing Cold, and CBD Oil

Learn how the TRPV1 gene shapes your reaction to spicy foods, pain, temperature, neuroinflammation and CBD oil, plus see how your genetic variants may affect tolerance and health.

PMS, PMDD, Genetics, and Solutions

Studies estimate that PMS is up to 95% heritable – which means that it has a significant genetic component.

PLIN1: Storing and Breaking Down Fat

PLIN1 is important in lipolysis, weight, and insulin resistance. Understanding your genes can help you dial in your diet.

PFAS, Your Genes, and Your Health: From Mitochondrial Function to Immune Response

PFAS are persistent “forever chemicals” found in everyday products that are used to make products water-resistant, stain-resistant, and non-stick. Research shows PFAS are associated with reproductive issues, immune suppression, thyroid dysfunction, and more.

PCSK9: Cancer Recurrence & Prevention

Lower PCSK9 levels have been shown in research studies to correlate to a significantly reduced risk of metastatic recurrence in certain types of cancer.

Osteoporosis: Genetic Susceptibility and Prevention Strategies

Osteoporosis is a degenerative bone disease facing many of us as we age. Genetics plays a big role in susceptibility to osteoporosis. The good news here is that knowing where your genetic susceptibility lies can lead you to targeted, personalized solutions for osteoporosis. (Member’s article)

Osteoarthritis: The Role of Genetics and Natural Solutions

Inflammation and breakdown of cartilage are at the root of osteoarthritis. Learn how your genes impact the pathways involved in arthritis.

Nrf2 Pathway: Increasing the Body’s Ability to Get Rid of Toxins

The Nrf2 (Nuclear factor erythroid 2–related factor) signaling pathway regulates the expression of antioxidants and phase II detoxification enzymes. It is a fundamental pathway important in how well your body functions. Your genetic variants in the NFE2L2 gene impact this NRF2 pathway.

GLP-1: Genetic Variants Related to GLP-1 RA Medications

GLP-1 receptor agonists are used for weight loss by increasing the body’s sensitivity to insulin and reducing hunger. However, genetic variants can alter the response in some people.

My Story…

Hi! I’m Debbie Moon, founder of Genetic Lifehacks.

When I first had my genetic data sequenced, I was both amazed and frustrated:  amazed by all of the genetic research available in academic journals, but frustrated by the disconnected topics and lack of accessibility.

I started Genetic Lifehacks to bridge the gap — to help everyone understand how their genes influence their health, diet, and longevity with practical and useful information based on current research studies.

With my undergraduate degree in engineering as a foundation and a Master’s degree in Biological Sciences from Clemson University (2019), I’ve built Genetic Lifehacks into a platform that has helped over 4 million readers and 17,000 members to optimize their health through understanding their genetics.
