Episode 3043: Many traditional diets share key traits like rich sources of fat-soluble vitamins and the absence of processed foods, but Ben Greenfield highlights why your ideal diet depends heavily on your unique genetics. From amylase production to ApoE variants and vitamin A conversion, this piece reveals how ancestral eating patterns and individual gene expression shape the best nutritional approach for your body. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://bengreenfieldlife.com/article/nutrition-articles/how-to-figure-out-what-diet-is-right-for-you/ Quotes to ponder: "The more AMY1 copies you’ve inherited (and the more of this enzyme you produce as a result), the better your starch-metabolizing capabilities will be." "Depending on what you inherited from your parents, you’ll carry a combination of any two ApoE variants: ApoE2, ApoE3, or ApoE4." "Two common mutations on the BCM01 gene, which helps govern the beta-carotene-to-vitamin-A conversion process, make it nearly impossible to get enough vitamin A from the plant kingdom alone."
