The Smart Gene. What Food Our DNA Needs

Our DNA is unique. It can turn on and off genes that determine the shape of our nose and lips, the development of diseases, and excellent health. But how does it know what to do? The answer was found by epigenetic scientists: from food!

We tend to think of food as a set of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. But this is a mistake. Food is information that our body receives about the environment. It is food that determines which gene will be turned on in our DNA and which will be turned off. Here’s an experiment: pigs were fed food lacking vitamin A — and the piglets that were born did not develop eyes. At all. This happened because the lack of vitamin A in the diet conveyed information to the piglets' DNA that they lived in complete darkness and did not need eyes!

Our body reacts in exactly the same way. But how did humanity survive? Of course. In kitchens around the world, there are 4 pillars of ideal food for beauty and health. It is these pillars that gave us a chance to win the genetic lottery. But today there are two killer products that nullify our chances of being born beautiful and living healthy. What are they?
