👨‍⚕️ CONSULTATION WITH OUR NUTRITION SPECIALIST

If you choose an option with a consultation, you will be guided by our experienced nutrition specialist:

**"I am a nutrition specialist and someone who is naturally drawn to a healthy, simple and functional lifestyle. My interest in nutrition didn't arise only professionally, but above all from a personal need to better understand my own body, health and what makes sense in the long term.

Over time, this journey also became my work - connecting quality food, nutrition and practical solutions that can actually be lived. I believe in an approach based on understanding, balance and long-term sustainability, not quick shortcuts.

Today I find fulfilment in being able to share this experience and perspective on nutrition with others and help them find their own path to better wellbeing."**

💪 What influences longevity?

Longevity is influenced by a combination of genetic and environmental factors:

Genetic factors (25-30%):

✅ Genetic variants in key genes
✅ DNA protection and repair mechanisms
✅ Antioxidant capacity
✅ Inflammatory response
✅ Metabolic efficiency

Environmental factors (70-75%):

✅ Diet and nutrition - quality and quantity of food
✅ Physical activity - regular exercise
✅ Sleep - quality, sufficient rest
✅ Stress - stress management
✅ Social relationships - strong social bonds
✅ Environment - clean air, water
✅ Habits - smoking, alcohol

Important: Even though you can't change your genes, you can influence their expression through your lifestyle!

🧬 Epigenetics: Your genes are not your destiny

Epigenetics is the science of how lifestyle influences gene expression without changing the DNA itself.

What you can influence:

✅ Diet - some foods activate "good" genes
✅ Exercise - changes the expression of genes linked to metabolism
✅ Fasting - activates longevity genes (SIRT1, FOXO3)
✅ Stress - chronic stress switches off protective genes
✅ Sleep - affects DNA repair mechanisms
✅ Toxins - exposure to toxins changes genetic expression

Example: Even if you have a genetic predisposition to a certain disease, a healthy lifestyle can reduce the risk of it developing.
