In this episode, Dr. Stephanie interviews Dr. Kara Fitzgerald, one of the leading experts and clinical researchers on DNA methylome and its influence on Aging. They do a deep dive on her most recent study and it’s conclusions. They talk about the scientific race towards immortality, funded by billionaire tech giants and large governing bodies. You’ll learn how your genetics can be influenced by your previous generations, and how you can change the direction of your genes. Lifestyle. Diet, and stress management are key factors for a long life, but the science is getting more and more advanced. We wrap up this week’s podcast with a chat about Kara’s recent introduction to motherhood, and her sentimental scientific discovery for non-biological parents like herself. What a great guest to have on the Better show, and we look forward to chatting with her again in the future!
