Listen "Rewriting Your Health Story: Genes Are the Load, Lifestyle Pulls the Trigger"
Episode Synopsis
Stop Settling for Shortcuts: Why Quick Fixes Are Failing Your Health” When did we start believing that a pill a day keeps the problem away? In this episode of Chiropractic is Se*y, we’re exposing the trap of “easy-button” healthcare. We share a conversation with a patient who was taking a nightly Prilosec without ever asking why he needed it—or what it might be doing long term.We also tackle a big myth: that you’re stuck with the health outcomes your parents had. You are not a victim of your genes. Your environment, choices, and habits turn genes on or off—this is the science of epigenetics, and it’s empowering once you understand it.Tune in as we talk about:The family legacy of lifestyle-driven illnessHow discomfort is actually a signal (not a nuisance)Why foundational health work matters more than symptom reliefEpigenetics: how your environment influences gene expression💡 This episode will challenge your mindset and inspire you to choose differently—for yourself and your kids👉 Chiropractic is not about pain relief. It’s about building resilience. Functional medicine isn’t a shortcut. It’s the long game.STAY CONNECTED with Dr. Ruffin!Free resources: https://drruffin.com/https://www.instagram.com/drpaularuffin/https://www.facebook.com/drpaularuffinCONNECT w Dr Peabody:https://www.cafeoflifefenton.com/meet-the-doctors/ https://www.instagram.com/drericapeabody/ https://www.facebook.com/erica.peabodyDisclaimer: The contents of this video are for informational purposes only and are not intended to be medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, nor to replace medical care.
