How You are affecting your Genes. Everyday.
Obviously, this is an extremely in-depth topic that deserves an entire book. Here are just some interesting resources I have come across that could be useful, and at the very least, stimulating!

Your GENES aren't your Destiny...your lifestyle is!
Still want to blame Genes for Cancer? Then explain this...
Dr. Richard Goldberg, the physician-in-chief and a professor of medicine at The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center – James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute (very credible)....found that, "Colon cancer is QUITE RARE in Japan, although it's becoming more common as their diet becomes Westernized."
...
His studies have shown if a MAN or WOMAN lives in Japan, their incidence of Colon Cancer is very rare and as soon as they move to the United States, their risk of Colon Cancer goes up extremely.
How?
Did their GENES change?
No their lifestyle did. Once you begin living the typical Standard American Diet and living the Standard American lifestyle, you INCREASE your risk of Cancer, regardless of Genes....if you have the Genes for colon cancer, you turn them on sooner living the typical American lifestyle!
Your DNA (your genes) isn't your Destiny, your lifestyle is!
