Could your genetics be influencing your fatigue, brain fog, cravings, and motivation to exercise?

In this episode of the Wellness That Fits Podcast, registered dietitian Cassie Groeschl sits down with leading nutrigenomics expert Dr. Ahmed El-Sohemy to break down how DNA-based nutrition can impact the way you eat, feel, and function.

You’ll learn how nutrigenomics (personalized nutrition based on your genes) helps explain why one-size-fits-all diets often fall short—and how you can use your genetic insights to better support your energy, mental clarity, metabolism, and long-term health.

From vitamin deficiencies and iron levels to MTHFR gene variants, omega-3 absorption, gluten intolerance, and even exercise motivation, this episode explores the connection between your genes and your daily wellness habits.

If you’re dealing with burnout, low energy, anxiety, inflammation, or brain fog, you’ll walk away with practical, realistic insights to help you support your body through more personalized nutrition and lifestyle strategies.
