Millions of people are running these protocols right now without ever testing their genetic predispo
In this video Dr. Jeffrey Gladden warns that a large number of individuals are adopting popular health, diet, and performance protocols without first assessing their own genetic predispositions. He explains how genetic variations can dramatically influence the safety and effectiveness of such protocols, outlines several widely‑used regimens (e.g., low‑carb keto, intermittent fasting, high‑intensity interval training, and certain supplement stacks) that may be harmful or ineffective for people with specific genetic markers, and presents data on the prevalence of protocol use versus genetic testing rates. Dr. Gladden then offers practical guidance: why and how to get appropriate genetic testing, how to interpret results, and how to tailor protocols to one’s unique genetic makeup to avoid adverse outcomes and maximize benefits.
