HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!  Implementing some simple practices throughout the holidays can keep you healthy and feeling well. #1 Get enough sleep. This is the MOST IMPORTANT one! If you can get 8 hours sleep in and get to bed between 10 and 11:00 pm, you will allow your adrenals to regenerate and hormones to balance. This will help you to avoid over eating. Your leptin hormone will kick in to say when you've had enough, and shuts the ghrelin hormone off, so you don't continue to feel hungry, and over eat. #2 Drink plenty of water. Drink 8-10 cups of water/day. If you drink a full cup of water 15 mins before a meal, it will make you feel full quicker and also helps you produce more HCI (Hydrochloric Acid) so you digest your food better, and feel satiated. Good for bowel health too, which quite often suffers throughout the holidays. Drinking enough water will also help detox your body, and get nutrients to the cells. #3 Start your meal, snack, or treat with a protein, first. This will help prevent insulin from spiking, and then dropping, leaving you feeling tired and hungry again. A few almonds or one or two bites of any protein is all it takes to keep your insulin balanced, and prevents over-eating. #4 Don't skip meals. This will only set you up to BINGE EAT! Eat 3 well balanced meals spaced out 5-6 hours. Make sure to get enough protein, healthy fats (nuts, seeds, cold-pressed organic flax and olive oils, avocados) and try veggie carbs (squash, sweet potato, rutabaga, parsnips) instead of grains, to avoid bloating. Eat your fruit at the end or dessert. Protein turns the hunger signal off, and fats keep you full longer. Vegetables and fruits are full of fiber, so they make you feel full, and are great for blood sugar control because of their high fiber content. #5 Limit Sugar. It's ADDICTING...and will make you want more and more. As well, it takes 1 tsp of processed sugar to lower your immune system for 8 hours, and leaves you feeling tired and susceptible to catching viruses. #6 Bake your own treats instead of buying them & use healthier ingredient options. Bake with monk fruit/erythritol sweeteners instead of processed sugars, and try almond flour/butter recipes or gluten free flours. SOME HEALTHY TREAT IDEAS - 70% or higher plain dark chocolate instead of processed chocolates. Try Cassava grain free chips, and create beautiful fruit and veggie plates, like in the above photo. #7 Avoid planning too many get-togethers. Take time to rest and enjoy doing things you don't normally have time to do. This not only builds healthy adrenals, but allows you too keep healthy throughout the holidays and feel well. #8 Get moving!!! Do what you love. Walk, snowshoe, ski, skate, short exercise videos, dance to carols:) Check out my HEALTHY CHRISTMAS RECIPES for cakes, cupcakes, ring cakes, loaves and gingerbread cakes on my RECIPES page!

The genetic analysis incorporates numerous algorithms and looks at genes affecting diet, metabolism, exercise, vitamins/minerals, neurotransmitters, hormones, detoxification, immunity, inflammation, thyroid health and sleep. We used to think there was little we could do about the genes we’d been given. They were carved in stone and we were at the mercy of their bidding. It was a fatalistic attitude often used as an excuse to avoid making changes to our lives. What was the point if our genes were immutable? Well it turns out that we were wrong! Although it is true that we cannot change our genetic code, we can greatly influence the expression of many genes and control the effects they have on our body. By making small changes to our lifestyle, our diet, our supplements, we can not only optimize the genetic blueprint we have been given but we can actually alter the way genes work. We can turn them on or off, up or down to maximize their beneficial side, while minimizing their adverse effects. We can steer them in a specific direction that enhances our health today and we can modify them to prevent problems in the future. Genes, it would appear, are malleable and with the right tools we can shape them to create better health and longevity. As increasing numbers of clients both presented with their genetic analysis or elected to complete it having consulted with me, I recognized that this truly was the next exciting frontier of medicine. Clients were unique and did not fit into pre-designed boxes. As I went over their results, explaining why they felt a certain way after different foods, with varying types of exercise and when stressed or losing sleep, their eyes lit up with a recognition that I truly understood them and their individual issues. “Yes, that’s me” would be a common expression at the end of our discussion. I would receive emails a few weeks later from patients seeing improvements in their health, their energy, their sleep and their weight, problems they had struggled with for years without an answer, and were now doing amazingly well. The five cornerstones of health in my practice are metabolism, diet, stress, inflammation and detoxification. Optimizing these is the foundation of good health and the reduction of disease risk. We will be looking at genes and SNPs that impact your metabolism, diet and stress. These three factors are closely interlinked when it comes to your weight, energy levels and diet. Some of them are associated with the development of diseases such as type 2 diabetes but it is important to bear in mind that such diseases have multiple etiologies and contributing factors. So, while you may have a “risk allele” you may never develop the condition. Personal genetic analysis lets you identify your own personal strengths and weaknesses and allows you to make sensible lifestyle choices to potentially improve your overall health and well-being. It may also help you achieve your ideal weight. If it can help reduce your risk for certain diseases, then that is an added benefit. ____________________________________________________________ Genetic Case Study Anna is a 36-year-old professional woman who wanted help with unwanted weight gain despite her strict diet and exercise regimen. Her weight had increased 18 pounds in 8 months. She felt hungry all the time, had low energy and had muscle and joint soreness. Anna had originally wanted to eat more healthily and planned to lose about 5 pounds. On the recommendation of a friend, she had radically changed her diet from a higher protein, moderate carbohydrate diet with “minimal fats” to more of a “ketogenic” diet incorporating high fat, low to moderate protein, and restricted carbohydrates with fewer vegetables and no fruits, whole grains or starches. Within a couple of months of starting the diet she began to feel “puffy” and inflamed and then started to put on weight. To counteract this she increased her exercise, running 30 minutes to 1 hour, 4 times a week and became stricter with her diet. Despite this she reported increased feelings of hunger and craving and continued to gain weight. She felt progressively more fatigued, particularly during exercise. Prior to our initial consultation, Anna had run herself through the 23andMe DNA test. Having signed up though the 23andMe website, Anna received a testing kit within 1 to 2 days, which included a specimen bottle for a saliva sample and instructions on how to fill it. She returned the specimen to 23andMe in a pre-paid envelope along with a signed form. 3 to 4 week later Anna received an email indicating that her genetic data was available. She was then able to log into her account and access both her raw data and a basic report. The raw data is a huge file containing gene and SNP codes for approximately 1500 genes and is not useful in any practical manner. However, I am able to process the file using my GeneRx program to produce a report, which is both informative and practical in terms of providing a diet, lifestyle and supplement protocol. Anna sent me her raw data file and prior to our meeting I ran it through the program. Part of the report based on Anna’s genetic profile (details at the end of this chapter) indicated the following: • Significantly increased weight-gain and hunger when consuming more than 22 grams of saturated fat per day. • Moderate increase in desire for energy rich foods and increased weight gain with a low protein, high saturated fats diet. • Higher risk of progressive weight gain and worse with a high saturated fat diet. • Overall she handles carbohydrates well. • Increased inflammation with endurance exercise. By ignoring her genetics and following the latest “ketogenic” dietary trend, Anna not only failed to lose weight, she actually gained more. In addition, the diet had caused an imbalance in the systems in her body and brain controlling feelings of hunger. The diet had also resulted in higher levels of inflammation resulting in feelings of soreness, “puffiness” and fatigue. By dropping her carbohydrates and increasing calories from saturated fat Anna’s genetic coding had led to increased fat accumulation, particularly around the abdomen, which posed a significant health risk. It also led to higher levels of her hunger hormone (ghrelin), which resulted in poor satiety and cravings for energy-dense foods. Restricting her carbohydrates was unnecessary as she actually coded well for these and by doing so she limited her energy supply leading to additional fatigue. Increased fatty weight contributed to increased inflammation. Based on her genetics, this was her recommended protocol to follow: • Reduce her daily lean protein intake calculated according to her body weight. • Slightly increase whole grains to 2/3 the physical size of her protein portion. • Vegetables and salads allowed in unlimited quantities. • Reduce her saturated fat intake to less than 22 grams per day. • Supplements (see Appendix 2) o Resveratrol Extra o Tri-Metabolic Control (TMC) Anna lost 3 pounds in the first week, and 16 more over the next 8 weeks. The “puffiness” and inflammatory feeling were significantly reduced by day 10 and completely gone by 2 weeks. Energy levels, both day-to-day and with exercise, were back to normal by 4 weeks. At 2-year follow-up Anna continued with a moderate and balanced diet and had maintained a healthy weight. This is a good example of why there is no one diet that suits everyone. Diet trends come and go and they work for some people but not others. In some cases, like Anna’s, they can be detrimental. Genetics provides insight into your individual metabolism and allows a highly personal, safe and effective program to be designed. Anna’s Detailed Genetic SNP coding: • APOA2: CC – significantly increased weight-gain and hunger when consuming more than 22 grams of saturated fat per day. • FTO: TA – moderate increase in desire for energy rich foods and increased weight gain with a low protein high saturated fat diet. • PPARG: GG – higher risk of progressive weight gain and worse with a high saturated fat diet. • TCF7L2: CC – handles carbohydrates well. • IRS1: TT – handles carbohydrates well.

Renewed Health & Nutrition Services NOW OFFERS BLOOD TYPE TESTING Have you ever thought of eating for your blood type? It may not have crossed your mind before, but since different blood types can more easily digest certain types of food, the blood type diet can help improve digestion, maintain your ideal body weight, increase energy levels, decrease your risk of disease and even tell you about your personality. What Is the Blood Type Diet? The idea behind the blood type diet is that there are certain foods you should eat that suit your blood type, making you healthier and helping you lose weight. The diet is designed to help people digest food more efficiently and avoid chemical reactions that lead to hormone disruptions. The blood type diet was created by a naturopathic physician named Dr. Peter J. D’Adamo. Blood causes a chemical reaction when mixed with a protein called lectin, found in certain foods. There are four types of blood types, determined by your genetics: O, A, B and AB. The blood type diet is a way of eating that categorizes food as either beneficial, neutral or harmful based on a person’s blood type and other factors. There’s a completely different diet for each blood type based on what each type can easily digest. Dr. D’Adamo claims foods harmful to your blood type can cause an agglutination reaction, which makes blood cells stick together, increasing the risk of disease. RENEWED HEALTH & NUTRITION SERVICES OFFERS BLOOD TYPE TESTING which is useful for diet protocols and benefits health and weight loss programs.

Conditions like leaky gut syndrome are linked to diseases such as eczema, psoriasis, diabetes, arthritis and more. Research also suggests there is a connection between your gut microbiome and your emotions, know as the gut-mind connection.
Some of the main causes of digestive issues are Antibiotics, recreational drug & medical drug prescription use, bacteria, Candida (fungal/yeast overgrowth), poor food choices - our western diet, alcohol, poor eating habits such as eating fast or late at night, poor food combining, and smoking.

GENETIC ANALYSIS - Decode your genetic data to get a detailed blueprint of how your body works!
DO YOU WONDER WHY...
- You have specific health issues/diseases and how strong your immune system is working?
- How your metabolism is functioning and why you can't lose weight even though you eat very little, and exercise lots?
- Why you aren't sleeping well?
- Why you have inflammation & pain?
- Why you have hormonal imbalances?
- Why you feel stressed, depressed or suffer with anxiety...and how well your neurotransmitters are working?
While we can’t change our genes, we can change the strength with which they express their traits. This can be achieved through natural supplements, diet, exercise and other lifestyle variables. Decoding your genetic data provides you with a detailed blueprint of how your body works. It allows your doctor to advise you of your specific health risks and your reaction to factors such as foods, exercise and stress. And it provides the foundation for a highly individualized lifestyle and treatment protocol.
..I've done genetic testing and found the answers I had been searching for over 10 years.
About Genetic Analysis
Our bodies are controlled by a set of genetic instructions known as our genome or chromosomal blueprint. Our individual DNA provides codes for everything from eye colour to antibody production; It determines our risk for disease, our reaction to stress, our response to illness or injury and how we respond to food, exercise and medication. For example, metabolism and body weight is up to 70% controlled by our genetic coding. This allows us to see why some people respond well to high-protein low-carb diets, while for others it is inefficacious or actually increases weight. It explains why curcumin or turmeric increases inflammation in some people and decreases it in others. What fits your body best is all coded in your DNA.
