Our genes have a profound impact on what we can comfortably eat and digest. Experts like Teri Cochrane, Founder and CEO of Beyond Nutrition, dedicate their time to helping us figure out the complex world of epigenetics.
Teri shares her personal journey as a mother determined to find answers for her son's health challenges, which led her into the field of epigenetics. She developed The Cochrane Method, an approach that explores how nutrition affects gene expression and its impact on our overall well-being. She emphasizes the vital role of stress management in achieving overall wellness. Her precision wellness approach goes beyond functional medicine to help individuals become the CEOs of their own health journeys.
In this episode, Teri talks to Jen about how genetic expression impacts health, the principles of the Wildatarian diet, and inspiring success stories from clients who followed The Cochrane Method.
