"You are what you eat…but science suggests you’re also what your grandmother ate.
We’ve always known that the genes of our ancestors are passed on through generations, but could they pass on something more than just their genes?"

What is Epigenetics?
In biology the term epigenetics refers to changes in appearance or gene expression caused by mechanisms other than in the underlying DNA sequence, hence the name epi- (Greek: over; above) – genetics. Non-genetic factors cause the organism‟s genes to behave (or “express themselves”) differently, of global interest are certain bioactive nutrients.
Today, a wide variety of illnesses, behaviours, and other health indicators already have some level of evidence linking them with epigenetic mechanisms, including cancers of almost all types, cognitive dysfunction, and respiratory, cardiovascular, reproductive, autoimmune, and neurobehavioral illnesses. Known or suspected drivers behind epigenetic processes include many agents, including heavy metals, pesticides, diesel exhaust, tobacco smoke, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, hormones, radioactivity, viruses, bacteria, and basic nutrients.
What can Amega Amfood do for me?
The intake of fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced incidence of many common forms of cancer, and diets rich in plant foods are also associated with a reduced risk of heart disease and many chronic diseases of ageing. These foods contain phytochemicals that have anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory properties which confer many health benefits. Many phytochemicals are colourful, for example, red foods contain lycopene, the pigment in tomatoes, which is localized in the prostate gland and may be involved in maintaining prostate health, and which has also been linked with a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease. Green foods, including broccoli, Brussels sprouts and kale,
contain Glucosinolates which have also been associated with a decreased risk of cancer. Garlic and other white-green foods in the onion family contain allyl sulphides which may inhibit cancer cell growth. Other bioactive substances in green tea and soybeans have health benefits as well. By consuming one serve of each of the seven colour groups daily, puts you within the US National Cancer Institute and American Institute for Cancer Research guidelines for preventative healthcare.
