So unless you're fasting for therapeutic reasons, such as in the treatment of cancer, I think there's a little more wiggle room. In Dr Jason Fung and Jimmy Moore's book "The Complete Guide to Fasting" they talk about allowing a little fat in a person's morning coffee because the insulin r...

I voted in the poll that there would be three of us in our family, but our 19 year old son hasn't been tested yet for the AOPE gene, and I will ask him as well. Will teens be welcome in the study? My daughter is 14 and is AOPE 3/4. I am AOPE 3/3 and I think it's so great that I can be in the study t...

Good news for CanadianNB, Slacker, since she mentioned in an earlier post that she's a transplanted Canadian now living in Virginia! Hope the home option makes your search easier, CanadianNB. I do know that northern Virginia at least has some medical practices who refer suspected sleep apnea patien...

You'll probably have to go through your PCP/GP to get the test ordered. Did your husband have symptoms of sleep apnea when he was originally diagnosed? Snoring, day time drowsiness? If so, are these still present? My husband was a very loud snorer when he was originally diagnosed. He has gotten bet...

I am making a list of all the ReCODE protocol tests for my husband, along with where to get them. One of the tests recommended is for sleep apnea. My husband was diagnosed with sleep apnea at ...

Thank you ChipW, sealypealy, slacker and apod. I looked at the wiki on methylation --- very informative! I just ordered P5P and Active B12 with L-5-MTHF from Seeking Health. I appreciate the recommendation to start with individual products and lower doses, and increase as needed. I subscribe to Cons...

I am reading Dr. Bredesen's book to help my husband, who is APOE 3/4 and MTHFR T/T. He has high homocysteine. There are many other changes that I need to research and plan before we begin, but it seems pretty clear that it would be a good idea for husband to supplement with P5P Vitamin B6, Methyl-B1...

Hi CanadianNB!- Identifying foods you and your family have sensitivities to is a great way to begin to identify sources of inflammation. Some resources you may find helpful are the Institute for Functional Medicine’s (IFM) Elimination Diet Resource Guide , Weekly Planner Recipe Guide , and Food Pla...

One key nugget to keep in mind is that our genes are not our destiny! It is empowering to know we can make lifestyle changes (sleep & relaxation, exercise/movement, nutrition, stress, community & relationships) that positively impact the expression of our genes as well as increased health, ...

Another question: is there a recommended book for starting an elimination diet with low carb/high fat recipes? I think all three of us may have food sensitivities that contribute to inflammation and I think it's important to identify the foods we should avoid. So I'm thinking about that along with e...
