The Gut
It all begins with the microbiome. The complex ecosystem of microbes and how they interact with our body and mind is Angela’s special area of interest. Evidence-based research is evolving daily and the microbiome is at the forefront of Angela’s practice.
Epigenetics
Epigenetics is the way in which the environment affects your gene expression. The new science of epigenetics and nutrigenomics can offer a method in which we explore your genetic make up and your nutritional status thus altering your diet and supplementation regime to achieve optimal health and healthy ageing.
Your genetic make-up is who you are but it is not your destiny. There are certain times in your life when genes can be switched on and off and we call this gene expression. Genes can express over time, or can be affected by signals in your environment including stress, inflammation, exposure to toxins, nutritional deficiencies, exercise, sleep and emotions. This is the science of epigenetics and a nutrition consultation and functional testing can align your genetic make up with your current health state to optimise health through looking at faults on your chromosomes and tailoring your diet, lifestyle and supplement regimen to suit your needs according to YOUR genetic make up.
In essence, the practice of epigenetics and nutrigenomics may reverse your years and help to facilitate wellness and prevention of future illness.
