Summary of Transcript:
The video discusses personalized medicine and the importance of understanding genetics and genomics in healthcare. Aging is caused by inflammation, lack of detoxification, and poor oxidation of cells. Personalized medicine is important because what works for one person may not work for another. Understanding environmental health is key because the current environment can harm the body, and genetics play a role in how the body defends against toxins in the environment. For example, some people may not have the genetic instruction to defend their gut from toxins, which can lead to autoimmune conditions like eczema and psoriasis. Understanding genetics is like an instruction manual for the body, but there can be misspellings or missing pages, which can lead to health issues. Personalized medicine can help identify and treat these genetic variants to prevent disease and slow down aging.

How Genetics Affects our Response to Trauma and Emotional Situations
For some people, it’s easier to move on from a situation and not get bogged down by emotions. For others, it’s challenging to let go of emotional baggage and move on. According to Kashif Khan, founder and CEO of the DNA Company, genetics could be a crucial factor in determining how we respond to trauma and emotional situations. In this episode, he explains how genetics can reveal secrets about us as individuals and how we can leverage this information to thrive.
The Importance of Personalized Response
Kashif believes that there’s no one-size-fits-all solution to dealing with emotional trauma. Instead, we need to personalize our response based on our genetics. He says, “The answer isn’t, here’s what everybody should do, it’s more that the answer is personalized.” Understanding our unique genetic makeup can help us move past negative experiences more effectively.
The Link Between Genetics and Health
Kashif explains that our genetics are linked to three significant factors that affect our health negatively – inflammation, lack of detoxification, and poor oxidation. By knowing how we are genetically predisposed to these factors, we can take specific steps to minimize their effects and lead a healthier life.
Context Determines Result
Kashif highlights how the context we’re in determines our results. Knowing the situations we’re built for can help us perform better and achieve greater success than struggling in scenarios where we’re not genetically predisposed to excel. He says, “The context you’re in will determine your result.”
The Misconception About Our Genetic Destiny
Many people believe that our genes determine our destiny. However, Kashif dismisses this idea, saying, “This is the misconception that your genes are your destiny. They are your destiny if you don’t understand them, and you’re doing everything wrong, and for the most part, we aren’t designed for our current reality.” Understanding our genetics can help us make the most out of our capabilities and stop us from giving up too soon.
The Role of Vitamin D in Genetics
Kashif sheds light on how Vitamin D plays a vital role in our genetic makeup. He informs us that 10% of our genes require Vitamin D to function correctly. By getting enough of this crucial vitamin, we can maintain our health and wellbeing in the long run.
Estrogen Toxicity and Cardiovascular Health
Kashif explains how estrogen toxicity can be a significant factor in women’s cardiovascular health. He highlights that 66% of women may die of their first cardiovascular event without any warning signs due to the cofactor of estrogen toxicity.
Your Genetics Reveal Who You Are
Kashif stresses how our genetics dictate who we are, including our brain function, cardiovascular health, and mood and behavior. By acknowledging and understanding our genetic predispositions, we can navigate life with more clarity and purpose.
Conclusion
Kashif’s insights on genetics and their effect on our emotional and physical wellbeing are enlightening. By realizing that our response to trauma and emotional situations is partially determined by our genetics, we can personalize our approach and thrive. Understanding our unique genetic makeup can help us bypass hurdles, lead healthier lives, and achieve our goals.

For you, it’s hard to move past a situation because you are tied to the emotion as if it just happened, and don’t move on as easily.
