Epigenetic transformation -- you are what your grandparents ate: Pamela Peeke at TEDxLowerEastSide

Why? What’s wrong with quiet serious considered education?

[@MooMooMath]

I'm not making this up. Eight years ago I felt like I was sick all of the time and was feeling like at 52 my best years were behind me. I can't remember what inspired me but my breakfast became my " lazy man's breakfast" because of how easy it is to prepare. I put kale, 1 bannana,spinach,pea protein,carrots, and water, in a cheap blender,mix it up, and drink it. This has been my breakfast for the last 6 years. At 61 I run faster than I did at 50 and I have reduced my rate of illiness.

[@carmelasowens7303]

I'm going to try it. You've inspired me

[@HearturMind]

Kale should not be eaten daily especially raw due to toxins unique to that vegetable. Look into it. It's fine less frequently.

[@Acts-1322]

​@@carmelasowens7303 hope you started then and are still going just 5 months later! 💪 Also always build body armor... AKA muscle strength!

[@sharroon7574]

What works for one will not work for everyone, kale and pea protein are problematic for some but if it works for you, good job.

How do you liquify carrots in a cheap blender? Tell me and I'll do it.

Gosh, if she taught at my school, I would sign up for her class in a heartbeat! I love the way she presents all this important, educational information in such an engaging way, and intertwined with such humor. I really appreciate how she uses more "real person", everyday lingo and explanations and tries to connect with the audience as opposed to just spewing off facts in uber-scietific jargon; she introduces the scientific jargon and then weaves it into stories so we can all understand what's going on. I saw another one of her TED talks, too, and I was equally as enthralled; she really brings science and medicine alive! Bravo! :D

So your genes do not control your destiny, but the proteins in them have a lot more to do with DNA construction and reconstruction! I love this study! A new age is on the horizon, and I'm super excited about it. There's so much that goes into the power of positive thinking. Your Thoughts create Your reality and words rewire your brain.

its a conspiracy. cause this saved my life. im not even 30 & my health was horrible a year ago when i found this & began applying it. i added kale first once a week, then every day, then added veggies after veggie, then a tablespoon of raw ginger...it just built into this incredible new life for me. the world will find a way to get this truth out there somehow. youre so lovely for thinking this needs more views too!

[@alanbrunton2289]

This is the tip of the iceberg. When we say that our cells are influenced by their environment, there are 2 kinds of environment, natural and ingested. It makes great sense to induce healthy, organic foods, vitamins, into our bodies, but the "natural environment," light, heat and sound, is also a great influence on the optimal performance of our bodies. Sound itself, from the music we listen to, to the buzzing of florescent lighting above the cubicles, has frequencies which influence our cells, the cell's receptors and secondary transducers of information. ALL frequencies influence our bodies. Choosing which ones we subject ourselves to is a question just BARELY being addressed.

[@Shyeena]

and... when you think of all the information being transmitted through the etheric waves; we are bombarded by unseen frequencies. As an infant and child- bombarded by things we've now learned is not good. Reversing the damage on our gene expression takes dedication and knowledge.

Before Epigenetics there was Dr Pottenger's Cats Studies (and especially his personal notes) of the 1930/40 era where it was shown the disastrous effect of cooked foods, especially through the generations, and the benefit of a natural diet. It seems, today, that the scientists are only now catching-up with Pottenger's findings, some 75 years later! Well done for academe, a brilliant lot!

[@giftokeze4926]

yeahhh, Conrad Waddington first came with the definition of Epigenetics in the 1940s saying "Epigenetics is the branch of biology that studies the casual interactions between genes and their products which bring the phenotype into being." I'm surprised that was not mentioned. Either the video was still great in my opinion, I enjoyed it and can see the topic in a new perspective.

[@edithnell227]

The visionary work of Francis M. Pottenger and Weston A. Price in the early 20th Century alerted readers to this generational (epigenetic) effect. In his 'Nutrition and Physical Degeneration' (1939) Price detailed, with accompanying photos, the damage caused to the children of parents who had adopted modern devitalised foods as these became available in their remote corners of the world. 'Pottenger's Cats' details how poor nutrition in cats took several generations to reverse, with many cats unable to reproduce beyond the third generation. Sound familiar ? It's happening to us. A shame it has taken so many years, but at last the scientific community is recognising epigenetics. Thank you Dr. Peeke.

Interesting how the tree kind of tapers in impact after 3 generations. In Hindu culture, in any ancestral associations used whether when we articulate lineage during weddings or during annual death anniversary of anyone, we always go back to 3 generations.. parent, grandparent and greatgrandparent! Interesting that science now proves that there is actually a scientific connection to that thought process.. method to the madness in proof ! Not trying to talk about Hinduism, but that connection is one of the first things that popped into my head! And the fact that we can alter our destiny by our actions and thoughts ! 🙏

All my childhood and during my early adulthood I have been a rebellious stubborn girl who couldn’t wait to leave her country. I left home and went overseas only to realise the beauty of eastern way of living. Now in my late 20s, I’m learning the essence of eastern tradition, yoga, spirituality and Hinduism. We believed that our tradition was superstition because we were “educated”. I laugh at this now, modern education is only half knowledge and half knowledge is dangerous. It is only good to boost the ego of “intellectual people” 😁
