For 2 years Dr. Matt has been giving advice to new parents to eat, think, move, connect and cope with stress like a Michael Phelps training for the Olympics because it can change DNA epi-genetically. That observation was made by connecting the dots in the literature. Finally, last week the first published study proved his point! A study published April 29 in the journal Nature Communications has provided the first proof that a mothers diet can change the expression of genes in her unborn child. The study was conducted by researchers from the Medical Research Council (MRC) International Nutrition Group at the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine and the MRC Unit in the Gambia. Our results represent the first demonstration in humans that a mothers nutritional well-being at the time of conception can change how her childs genes will be interpreted, with a life-long impact, senior author Branwen Hennig said.
