We continue our deep dive into the 7 genes that are important for you to know about. Today we’ll look at the slow COMT gene, something that is a condition for me personally.
The COMT gene breaks down hormones, mainly estrogen, and is important for the breakdown of neurotransmitters and caffeine. People with a slow COMT like me tend to be very energetic, focused and active, but also have a higher risk of breast cancer.
To clean up this gene and make it work better, avoid caffeine, choose organic, eat lots of leafy green vegetables, beans, whole grains, lots of exercise, and supplement with methylated B and magnesium.
