Pleiotropic Power of Phytonutrients to Heal Your Genes - Deanna Minich, PhD (July 2020)

“Unlocking Your Color Code: The Pleiotropic Power of Phytonutrients to Heal Your Genes” is the presentation given by Deanna Minich, PhD at the July 16, 2020 Zoom meeting of the Silicon Valley Health Institute.

It’s been said long ago by Hippocrates that “food is medicine”. Dr. Deanna Minich would add that on many levels color is medicine,” especially the colors of food. We are learning more about the presence of the several thousands of pigmented phytonutrients in plant foods, which is currently revolutionizing the way nutritional medicine is unfolding in the 21st century. We used to focus on the three major nutritional components: fat, carbohydrate, and protein, and varying degrees of each of them. Now we know that non-caloric components of food are having significant impact upon human health through cell signaling, gene expression, and epigenetic modifications. In this presentation, learn more about the different colors of food, how to eat “smarter” by harnessing the phytonutrients for your inner spectrum, and the next frontier of bringing together a whole-self approach to nourishment in clinical practice.
