Manage episode 441408765 series 2925252
In EPISODE 175 OF GROWING OLDER LIVING YOUNGER with Dr. Jonathon Hill, VP of Science and Technology at Wasatch Biolabs, we explore the importance of epigenetics in understanding and combating unhealthy aging and the so-called aging-associated disorders. He explains how epigenetic effects such as DNA methylation, hydroxy-methylation and addition of histones, significantly impact gene expression and overall health. Dr. Hill highlights Wasatch Biolabs' work on developing tools for detecting neuro-degeneration from blood tests, potentially allowing for early Alzheimer's detection. We discuss the role of lifestyle in epigenetic changes and the future of personalized medicine, using genetic and epigenetic data to guide individual health decisions.
