'Bill Walsh, PhD discusses new insights about methylation, epigenetics and preconception planning.   ➢Enhance your sleep with Ned\'s liquid hemp formula! https://helloned.com/hih15 *1 mL of NED’s hemp formula under your under tongue~ 15 mins prior to bed is a game changer for sleep  William J.

Epigenetics dictates the rate of production.  08:24 Seventy percent of Americans have normal methylation. Twenty-two percent are under-methylated and 8 percent are over-methylated.  08:55 If you are over-methylated, too many of your genes have a methylation bookmark. It enhances gene expression.  09:11 If you are under-methylated, you will not have as much methylation for gene expression.  10:50 Dr. Walsh found that over 95% of autistic children/people are under-methylated.  13:19 If you have homozygous MTHFR 677T, methylfolate is helpful for 90% of us with the mutations.  15:03 Methylation status can be reflected in the SAM-e/SAH ratio.  17:26 Test results of the SAM-e/SAH ratio, should be ignored if the SAH level is below 40%.  21:00 Histamine is metabolized/destroyed by methylation.  23:29 More than half of us with schizophrenia and 60% of us with panic disorders, are part of the 8 percent of our population who are over-methylated.  24:46 The median/normal homocysteine in the US is 12. Between 6 and 9 is a healthy range.  28:57 More people who have significant brain/mental problems are under-methylated, compared to 20 years ago.  30:07 Test genetics before becoming pregnant. Most birth defects, including autism, happen in the first 20 days after conception.  31:44 Having too much or too few important epigenetic factors, can do harm.  32:36 At least 7 most common nutrients imbalanced in mental illness have been identified.  38:30 Genetic mutations take place over hundreds or thousands of years.  40:06 We each have about 100,000 mutations.  41:28 We have the ability to change gene regulation with nutrients and with drugs.  42:40  Psychiatric meds will always have side effects and they will never normalize the brain.  49:39 Almost all cancers are epigenetic, as is most heart disease.  50:35 Writing, reading, deletion and making a protein are the major factors in epigenetics.  51:05 Most cancers involve the loss of a cancer protection gene. It varies from cell line to cell line. Cancer genes can be fixed/made normal, but the side effect profile is profound and the effects extensive.  52:00 Transcription factors sense a part of your DNA that can make a protein and they bring all of the pieces so the protein can be manufactured.  52:40 Bromodomain and chromodomain therapies can be used to change specific genes, gene expression, in a particular tissue.  53:07 MicroRNA therapies are in phase 1, 2 and 3 testing.  57:51 One mechanism explains the mysteries of bi-polar disorder and will be disclosed shortly. 01:00:19 Omega 3 fatty acids are more effective in helping bi-polar people than the drugs.  01:00:49 In the brain, 4 fatty acids dominate.  They are DHA, EPA (omega-3), DGLA and arachidonic acid (omega-6).  01:03:11 Under-methylated people thrive on a protein based diet. People who are over-methylated thrive on a vegetarian diet. 01:05:47 Glial cells deliver nourishment to your 80 billion brain cells every day.  01:06:48 Glial cells are involved in brain scaffolding and plasticity. They sense when a neuron fires and moves the neurons closer together during learning.  01:09:26 Ageing is the deterioration of our DNA.  01:10:04 Dr. Walsh’s elevator pitch is for the government to stop killing off critical NIH research.  01:13:15 Schizophrenia is a name given to several completely different diseases. Depression can be one of 5 different disorders.   01:13:14 The number one reason that people decline mentally is from a zinc deficiency.'
