IN THIS EPISODE:

  • [03:00] What prompted Christy to create the genetic detoxification report.

  •  [10:00] Christy’s book is based on clinically based research.

  •  [13:00] Different genes and how to interpret charts correctly.

  •  [16:00] If a client has a specific gene but abnormalities aren’t showing in tests, is it worth focusing on?

  •  [22:00] Anyone with the Alzheimer’s gene needs to be educated and do their research.

  • [30:00] What could you do from a diet lifestyle perspective to adequately protect yourself from Alzheimer’s?

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Testing for a specific gene means you may have a predisposition to diseases, but other factors are involved when testing positive, like lifestyle and diet.

  • If you test positive for the Alzheimer’s gene, it is best to get educated and do the research into all factors of the disease.

  • When talking to your patients, it is important to not overwhelm them with a lot of information at once. Find a few key takeaways and a couple actionable items to present to them instead of digging into everything at once. Then, after a while you can start to build on what they’re already doing.
