What causes disease? What relationship does DNA damage have with genetic diseases and other illnesses? How can we avoid DNA damage? In this presentation, Barbara O’Neill builds a foundation for understanding what causes disease with a look at cell biology.

More than 60 years ago, scientists discovered they could unravel our DNA to “read” it. Yet, today, we seem no closer to solving the countless health issues that currently plague us. Are we really any healthier? People still get sick, and many of today’s illnesses are immune to treatment. What can we do to protect ourselves and recover our health? In order to properly heal and restore the body we need to first learn about the causes of disease. 

There are two main theories as to why disease happens: the germ theory and the gene theory. This episode deals with the inner workings of the cell and provides a basic understanding of the role of genetics in disease development. How are new cells made? What is DNA and how does it work? What is RNA? How does DNA determine the colour of our skin, eyes, our height, and appearance? What role does DNA play in our health? Do germs cause disease?

What cause DNA damage and how can you avoid damaging your DNA? This lecture considers some of the assaults upon our DNA mad by chemicals, GMOs, mineral deficiencies, excess heavy metal, electromagnetic field exposure, and more. Vaccines are also discussed. Join Naturopathic Doctor Barbara O’Neill in this about what causes disease, and what we can do to avoid initiating disease. Find out why genetics loads the gun, but lifestyle pulls the trigger.
