Hi,..
I have been working on articles related to beauty and how discovering your genetic make-up through DNA analysis can help you choose the right skin care routine.
Sample: The benefits of physical activity and exercise is no guarded secret, however the fact that exercises can help alter our DNA is something scientists have discovered. Juleen Zierath, a professor of physiology at the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm conducted a research that revealed significant activity in the muscle-related genes; before and after exercise. More genes were turned on in the cells after exercise.
Methylation, a molecular process, can limit the cells ability to access or switch on, certain genes. By controlling methylation in certain cells at specific times, the body regulates which genes in the DNA are activated. Methylation also helps the muscle cells to pump out the right enzymes and nutrients the muscle needs to get energy and burn calories every time you hit the jogging track. The more the intensity of the exercise, the more the methyl groups are on the move. The muscle biopsies of volunteers, taken after 80% sessions of intensive workouts, showed more RNA, which is the first by product of gene activity; than the samples taken after 40% sessions.
Other interesting findings:
*Exercise won’t make you thin, without the release of calcium.
When muscle cells are geared up for intense activity, calcium is released, thus fueling the contraction process. When scientists blocked the calcium
