Aging processes are partially the result of our genetic make-up, andgoverned by DNA. But aging also is a product of lifestyle -- the food we eat,the way we treat our bodies and the toxins, heavy metals, pollutants, and evenpharmaceuticals we encounter on a daily basis. LifeGuard is introducing thelatest science of epigenomics to examine how these environmental factorsaffect the direction of the major determiners of our future health -- our DNA.As we age, hormones become unbalanced, diet and exercise are often abandoned,and toxins accumulate in the body. These imbalances can detrimentally affectour immune, neurological and endocrine systems, resulting in a myriad ofsymptoms and serious diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes andautoimmune disease.
