miRNA: What It Is and How It Works
miRNAs are small non-coding RNA molecules that regulate gene expression. They are important for healthy aging, longevity, metabolic health, and immune function.
Gene Expression
AHCY Gene: Tying together methylation and homocysteine
AHCY is a key gene in the conversion of SAH to homocysteine and in the regulation of the SAM/SAH ratio. It also plays an important role in the circadian regulation of gene expression.
SIRT3, Aging, and Mitochondrial Function
How we age is just as important as how long we live. Examine how sirtuins play a part in the aging process by how they regulate our cellular health.
FTO and m6A Methylation
Recently, researchers discovered that FTO is an m6A eraser that removes methyl groups from mRNA. This discovery has opened up huge avenues of research on topics from cancer to immune response to heart disease.
Intermittent Fasting: Benefits from changing Gene Expression
The intermittent fasting concept has gained traction in health circles. Learn more about the importance of when you eat and its effects on gene expression.
SIRTfoods diet: Sirtuins and turning on your skinny genes
The SIRTfood diet, made popular by Adele’s recent weight loss, theoretically works by affecting your sirtuin gene expression. Learn about your SIRT genes and your genetic variants.
How natural supplements can change circadian gene expression
Did you know that some supplements change the expression of your core circadian clock genes? Your core circadian rhythm genes are foundational to your health, and some supplements alter that rhythm.
Leveraging your gut microbiome to change your gene expression
Learn how your gut microbiome influences the expression of your core circadian rhythm genes.
Changing Your Circadian Gene Expression with Polyphenols
Polyphenols can change the gene expression of your core circadian rhythm genes. Learn how to epigentically impact your biological clock with natural foods.
