064. What If You Could Change The Day You Die, Reverse Aging & Chronic Disease Thru Genetic Optimization - Kashif Khan (The DNA Co.)

This week I interviewed Kashif Khan from The DNA Company who’s pioneering the way we interpret our DNA. We all know of 23&Me and how it’ll spit out your DNA but not really give you any valuable data. The DNA Company not only gives you insights, but gives you instructions so you know what to do about it. 

I also had an analysis of my DNA ran by the DNA Company, and received this beautiful report explaining what my markers were for cardiovascular health, the brain, detox pathways, your risk for COVID, your risk for getting a concussion, how your body might react to hormone replacement therapy (HRT), and how cardio could back fire on you and actually negatively impact your health. 

There’s definitely some key takeaways for people especially if you interested in weight loss, you might not be suitable for a Keto diet based on your DNA. How you process Vitamin D, which a key marker for overall immunity. What’s also fascinating is your DNA and how you produce hormones. Knowing this information could help so many women post menopause to help prevent breast cancer as well as men interesting in maintaining healthy levels of testosterone.

If you're looking for holistic health coaching and getting to the root cause of your issue, whether it's weight loss, PCOS, gut health (H Pylori, candida, parasites, GERD) or detoxing from heavy metals, I can help. I'm also accepting applicants to join my 8 week weight loss coaching program for men and women who are dedicated and motivated and want to take action and get to the root cause of their issues.
