This PDF (Dirty Genes by Dr. Ben Lynch) presents a stepwise lifestyle and supplement program to identify and "clean" seven commonly problematic genes (MTHFR, COMT, DAO, MAOA, GST/GPX, NOS3, PEMT). After baseline protocols (Soak & Scrub) and self-assessments (Laundry Lists), the book provides detailed "Spot Cleaning" plans for each gene covering likely causes, diet and lifestyle changes, targeted supplements with starting doses, and red flags. Extensive Appendices (A–C) recommend specific lab tests tied to each gene, genetic testing/evaluation services, mold/indoor-air testing, and a comprehensive Resources section listing brands, products, and vendors used in the protocol.
