How Genes, Gut, And Environment Are All Connected

Let’s talk about genetic vulnerability, how genes, gut, and environment are all connected. So in the certified autism health coach training program, we actually give you the intake forms to use on your clients and ask the right questions because we want to see if there’s a genetic vulnerability passed on to the child. There are certain genes that we call dirty genes, but genes don’t doom the child. They’re just blueprints, just more information, another piece to the autism puzzle.

So we work with them. And if it’s a gene mutation of MTHFR, we know that that affects detoxification behavior and histamine levels in the child. Child. By running an organic acid test, we can see methylation markers.

There’s also a genetic test if one wants to run that. But we teach in the training which tests are the most beneficial. Now a gene or genetic vulnerability is an expression that depends on what triggers it. So in the environment, the food could trigger it and make it worse.

Toxins could trigger it and even stress, especially if the child doesn’t have serotonin, dopamine, and neurotransmitters being manufactured at the right amount for this individual. So with gut healing and lifestyle changes, we can help any genetic vulnerability function a little better, and that’s what we call epigenetics in action. If you want to understand the biomedical intervention, then we welcome you to register to become a certified autism health coach today and be that ripple effect in the betterment of the children diagnosed on autism. By asking the questions you need to go deep into finding the blueprints and getting to the root cause.
