(1888PressRelease) October 31, 2011 - DAHLONEGA, GA - Energetix, a homeopathic medicine, botanical remedy, and nutritional supplement company, is hosting a complimentary webinar Epigenetics: Bridging the Gap Between Nature and Nurture presented by Patricia Fitzgerald, DAOM, DHM, LAc, CCN, on November 16, 2011, at 2 pm EST.

Epigenetics, a relatively new science, is the study of changes in gene activity, which are not caused by changes in the underlying DNA sequence yet still get passed down to at least one successive generation. Research has indicated through epigenetic marks, that environmental factors such as diet, stress, toxins you're exposed to, and prenatal nutrition can impact genes that are passed from one generation to the next. Dr. Patricia Fitzgerald will be discussing the influences that epigenetics plays in the field of healthcare today.

A July 2009 article in The Quarterly Review of Biology listed over 100 well-documented cases of epigenetic inheritance between generations of organisms-implying non-genetic variation acquired during the life of an organism could be passed on to offspring.

Gregg Hake, CEO of Energetix, said "The science of epigenetics has broad implications both for the future of scientific inquiry and the way we educate future healthcare practitioners. As researchers continue to interpret the role of DNA and the environment, we look forward to seeing new therapeutic interventions and approaches to disease. Epigenetics underlines the importance of emphasizing lifestyle choices and preventive care to promote health in patients and succeeding generations."

Dr. Fitzgerald is the founder of the Santa Monica Wellness Center and the author of the best selling, award-winning book The Detox Solution: The Missing Link to Radiant Health, Abundant Energy, Ideal Weight, and Peace of Mind. As the Wellness Editor for The Huffington Post, she is dedicated to providing cutting-edge health and wellness information to a global audience.
