  • The message is: you can control and save your life - or you can put it in the hands of someone else...
  • Genetics = 8%; Epigenetics = 92% of the health that you experience; Epigentics = the lifestyle we live activates, turns on/off certain genes to
  • Predictive Biomarkers = those that have meaning and provides a value around which we can guide therapy
  • Test #1 = Insulin, blood sugar, carbohydrate metabolism = Hemoglobin A1C - measures extra sugar in our body
  • Test #2 = (High Sensitivity) C-Reactive Protein: all-cause morbidity indicator...
  • Test #3 = Homocysteine or HCy: Methylation, repair of blood vessels and cardiovascular health
  • Dr. Jaffe doesn't care about your MTHFR gene - Clearing up the confusion on 23 & Me, Theranos, the industry buzzword "methylation" and the MTHFR gene
  • Test #4 = Lymphocyte & Immune Tolerance - what environmental compounds can you tolerate without stressing digestion, sleep, mood, cognition, and performance ...Basically an ALCAT test on steroids
  • Test #5 = The pH of our first morning urination: Measuring mineral status and cellular metabolic acidosis - the batteries inside the cell for cellular energy
  • Test #6 = Vitamin D (25-HydroxyD): how this "neurohormone" functions in cellular cross-talk and plays a major role in mitigating cellular mutations (Cancer)
  • Rate limiting substrates - or the weak link in your chain
  • Test #7 = The Omega-3:Omega-6 Ratio
  • Test #8 = Oxidative Damage from environmental toxins: How 8-Oxo-Guanine measures exposure to the VOC's, POPs (hormone disruptors), mold, radiation, chemicals, pesticides, and other landmines from the 21st century
  • The Goldilocks value...not too low, not too high - JUST RIGHT! Knowing the optimal value you want for each of these 8 biomarkers AND how to get there
  • "Eat like a peasant, feel like a King. Eat like a King, die young and suffer." Old English aphorism
  • How consumers drive change and transition
  • Biodynamic farming and "super organic" plants that produce 2X the
  • Inflammation = repair deficit (physiological term that we are failing to return to baseline)
  • Health Food Superstars "GGOBSE": Garlic, Ginger, Onions, Brassica, Sprouts, and Eggs
  • "Goal value is to be tolerant to everything. Healthy people are tolerant."
  • Why Italians laugh at your yellow Olive Oil
  • Addressing oxidative stress with the Vitamin C (ascorbate) cleanse to determine oxidative damage and the link between Vitamin C and auto-immune diseases
  • Where you can find Dr. Russell Jaffe and get more of his work
  • Dr. Jaffe's Top 3 Tips to #LiveOptimal
  • "Live in harmony with your nature." (This requires that you know your nature. If you can discover your nature and live in harmony with, THAT is the secret to happiness. Otherwise it is going to fight with you.)
