So 2025 is the year this lie will finally die a final death. Since Ozempic/semiglutide injections made it trendy to care and socially acceptable to talk about weight again and not delusionally deny that being severely overweight is a serious health condition… let’s start talking about what really causes obesity. It’s not genetics, it’s EPIGENETICS. To explain this in more relatable terminology I will use an analogy. We are born with a health bank account received from both parents. That is out of our control and fully what parents pass down. As soon as you are born, everything you are exposed to in your life from the first injection you receive, to the type of milk you receive as a baby, the medications you take, the environment you grow up in and around, the food you start to consume, the time you spend outdoors, the emotional and physical trauma we go through, the relationships you choose, the amount of physical activity you do… will all start to rapidly influence the status of your health bank account that you inherited- either adding to it.. or subtracting. Now many of these early exposures aren’t controlled by us. They’re decisions made by our parents for us as we are growing up… which is why children often follow their parents footsteps in health and why people incorrectly think… “Oh it’s just genetics.” By saying that, people just want to blame someone else and don’t want to take accountability for the responsibility they DO have. Each person has to consciously decide for themselves when they come of age to break the poor financial health situation that parents passed down through bad habits, addictions, behaviors, and exposures that cause health bankruptcy. It’s not your fate, at some point it’s your choice. When you know better, do better.
