Episode notes
Genes Are Stable; Lifestyle Changed
- Human genes changed negligibly over 100 years while chronic illness rates skyrocketed.
- Therefore environmental and lifestyle changes, not genetics, explain the modern chronic disease rise.
Prioritize Lifestyle Over Drug Scores
- Prioritize lifestyle: give your body what it needs to express healthy structure and function.
- Focus on nutrition, movement, sleep, and psychosocial environment rather than drug-induced test scores.
Drug-Induced Homeostasis Is A Metric Fix
- Medicine aims for drug-induced homeostasis: normalize test numbers with pills.
- That approach alters scores but leaves underlying lifestyle causes and stressors unchanged.
