Dr Christy Sutton | Epigenetics vs Genetics, Genetic Testing, APOE4 Gene, & Fasting After a Brain Injury KKP: 377 Metabolic Freedom With Ben Azadi
-
- Alternative Health
Today, I am blessed to have here with me Dr. Sutton. She earned her Bachelors of Science in Microbiology, Anatomy, and Health and Wellness from Texas State University and Parker University. She earned her Doctorate of Chiropractic from Parker University. She was drawn to health care because of her extensive personal health struggles, which includes being diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at the age of 16.
Her interests lie in helping her patients prevent health problems, and assisting them in becoming as healthy and pain-free as possible without the use of drugs or surgery. She is focused on diagnosing and correcting the underlying problem rather than masking the symptoms. She currently lives and practices in Dallas, Texas with her loving husband and daughter.
In this episode, Dr. Sutton talks about her Chron’s disease diagnosis and getting to the bottom of the root cause. Then, we jump into homocysteine and what your optimal range should be. Dr. Sutton explains the difference between the genes you are born with and epigenetics. Plus, Dr. Sutton talks all about APOE and its correlation with Alzheimer’s disease. Tune in as we chat about getting quality sleep, how fasting can help with head injuries, and what to do after getting your genetic test results.

[00:45] Finding The Root Cause of Chron’s Disease Instead of Treating Symptoms
At 16, Dr. Sutton was diagnosed with Chron’s disease. The doctors diagnosed her by removing part of Dr. Sutton’s small intestine. Unfortunately, they never told her anything about diet or lifestyle. Eventually, Dr. Sutton figured out that certain foods would cause a problem. Dr. Sutton put herself on a gluten-free and dairy-free diet. [07:40] About Homocysteine and Your Optimal Range
Homocysteine is this amino acid that we all have. If you have too much, it's a problem. If you do not have enough, it's a problem. Unfortunately, the range on lab work is way too large. You should be in the six to eight range. If you’re above an eight on homocysteine, you are high. This means you have some cardiovascular damage, and it will increase your risk for dementia-related issues. [12:10] The Difference Between The Genes We're Born With and Epigenetics
The genes you are born with are the cards that you are dealt. You can’t change the genes that you are born with. Epigenetics is how your environment is going to influence those chains. You can do something about pretty much every genetic situation. [16:15] The Correlation Between APOE Genes and Alzheimer’s Disease
The APOE3 gene is most common. About 75% of people have that; it is considered neutral as far as Alzheimer's disease goes. If you have the APOE4 gene, you are at an increased risk for Alzheimer’s. APOE2 is pretty rare; only five percent of the population has it. APOE2 is protected against Alzheimer’s disease. [19:35] Preventing Alzheimer’s Disease: Eating Right For Your APOE4 Gene
APOE4 genotypes are at an increased risk for atherosclerosis. Atherosclerosis can accelerate dementia and Alzheimer's disease. If you have APOE4, you should eat a Mediterranean-type diet. Intermittent fasting is really g
