Dirty Genes: A Breakthrough Program to Treat the Root Cause of Illness and Optimize Your Health

Written by Dr. Ben Lynch

Narrated by Kaleo Griffith

A leading expert in epigenetics—how genes switch on and off—provides a revolutionary, holistic, and personalized approach to better health by improving how your genes behave to prevent and reverse common ailments, chronic illnesses, and life-threatening diseases, including cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disorders, anxiety, depression, digestive issues, obesity, cancer, diabetes, and more.

Your genes have a tremendous impact on your health. In this groundbreaking book, Dr. Ben Lynch reveals that while you can’t change the genes you were born with, you can change how they affect you.

When your genes are working properly, you feel energized and healthy. But when your genes are ""dirty,"" or not functioning optimally, your health suffers. Some genes are ""born dirty""—they have certain variations that can cause you problems. Other genes merely ""act dirty"" in response to your environment, diet, or lifestyle. You can optimize both types of dirty genes by cleaning them up through healthy eating, good sleep, stress relief, environmental detox, and other holistic and natural means.

An experienced researcher in the emerging science of gene abnormalities who has successfully treated thousands of clients, Dr. Lynch offers a simple questionnaire to identify which of the top seven dirty genes could be undermining your health. Then he offers targeted plans—including foods and recipes, supplements, and environmental detox—to clean up your dirty genes, eliminate symptoms, and optimize your physical and mental health.

Many of us have been taught that our genes doom us to the disorders that run in our families. But Dr. Lynch shows that you can rewrite your genetic destiny—once you know how. Dirty Genes provides a practical, personalized protocol to make the most of your genetic inheritance, now and for the rest of your life.

Reviews for Dirty Genes

[kseniia.mochalova · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

What a fantastic book!! And puts in perspective all the knowledge I have accumulated trying to “solve the unsolvable”. When the conventional doctors look at your tests and say “everything’s normal”, but you don’t feel like it at all - Ben Lynch is the kind of therapist that’s needed.

Thank you for making this understanding available!

Without access to the pdf which he mentions several times in each chapter, access to the audible portion of the book gives only half the benefit. He doesn’t go into the contents he references in the pdf so the information is not available. Not sure if Audible has access to the pdf but I don’t recommend any books on Everand that have a pdf! Star rating is because it’s a good book, just get it somewhere else.

Read it!!!! I’m not sure why there are even the negative reviews that there are. If you actually read or listened to this entire book he promotes natural remedies above all else. People are accusing him of just trying to sell his supplements? They aren’t even discussed in the book!

this is a great book, but where is the supplemental PDF?

[Phil Watrkins · Rating: 3 out of 5 stars]

Good book so fare! I'd appreciate the PDF though that is supposed to go with the audio version.
Would be nice if as the audio version says, the enhancement PDF is available for download from the audio book supplier.

I know a whole snake oil industry has sprung up ready to serve those of us who have these confusing gene profiles supplied by another quasi snake oil industry.....
But customized medicine is the future and there is something to even these rudimentary forays into the field. I'm skeptical, but as I read the descriptions of traits associated with the polymorphisms and compared them to my own, it was shockingly accurate. And no. it's not like reading your horoscope, where each prediction is vague and could apply to anyone. These are pretty specific.
The question is whether his therapies will be helpful. Each reader will decide for themselves. His advice sounds sensible and doable. I'm giving it a try. Considering the fact that I've given traditional medicine 25 years to help me with no luck and that two visits to a functional medicine doctor discovered 2 autoimmune diseases and hypothyroidism, I'm open to a new paradigm.
I recommend this book. Just keep your skeptic's hat on as you read anything about this burgeoning field.
