A study from scientists at Lund University found that exercise induces genome-wide changes in DNA methylation in human adipose tissue, potentially affecting adipocyte metabolism. Exercise, even in small doses, changes the expression of our innate DNA.

Inside the body, however, they can be very harmful. If alpha-emitters are inhaled, swallowed, or get into the body through a cut, the alpha particles can damage sensitive living tissue. The way these large, heavy particles cause damage makes them more dangerous than other types of radiation.

Gamma Irradiation Does Not Induce Detectable Changes in DNA Methylation Directly following Exposure of Human Cells.

The findings, the authors concluded, supported an “epigenetic explanation.” The idea is that trauma can leave a chemical mark on a person’s genes, which then is passed down to subsequent generations. The mark doesn’t directly damage the gene; there’s no mutation. It’s epigenetic.

Meditation and yoga can ‘reverse’ DNA reactions which cause stress, new study suggests. Summary: Mind-body interventions (MBIs) such as meditation, yoga and Tai Chi don’t simply relax us; they can ‘reverse’ the molecular reactions in our DNA which cause ill-health and depression, according to a study.

You can reprogram your DNA in a number of ways to alleviate any issue you think you may have inherited, such as fat genes, cancer genes, or depression genes. You can prevail over any issue you have inherited from others.

After two decades of studies, HeartMath researchers say other factors such as the appreciation and love we have for someone or the anger and anxiety we feel also influence and can alter the outcomes of each individual’s DNA blueprint.

Regular exercise is associated with a decreased risk of several cancers (e.g., breast, colon, thyroid), and moderate-intensity activity is thought to enhance DNA repair processes. However, studies have suggested that very high intensity exercise may actually cause DNA damage.
