What if you could…
✦ Enjoy good health, day after day, even as you get older?
✦ Have little, if any, reliance on pharmaceuticals to feel well?
✦ Feel that you have control over your health-related decisions ?
✦ Understand and utilise the real power of food in promoting health?
Is this even possible?
This book doesn’t promise in-depth answers to all these questions – but its goal is to get you started on the path to a scientifically-based approach to personalised health care. Switched On explores the ground-breaking science of Nutrigenomics, a new health care paradigm which identifies powerful food-derived compounds capable of ‘switching on’ or ‘switching off’ our genes as required by our cells. Anchored firmly in 21st century science, the era of Nutrigenomic Medicine has arrived.
Changing the face of Medicine
Increasingly complicated technologies are employed to treat the common complaints which fill hospital and doctors’ waiting rooms daily. Chronic diseases, which are largely preventable, account for an alarming 70% of all deaths in the developed world. Many adults live with one or more diagnosed chronic illnesses, a dire situation we seem to accept as normal.
So, if Chronic Disease is preventable, why don’t health authorities focus on strategies for promoting disease PREVENTION? Why are individuals left to discover this for themselves? Learn how to utilise the most powerful known nutrigenomic compounds responsible for protecting your cells and optimising their function. The result? Enhanced well-being, healthier ageing and much less need for drugs and surgery!

About the Author
Dr Christine Houghton PhD.,BSc.,R.Nutr
With over 30 years’ experience as a private-practice clinician in Nutritional Medicine,
Christine is now a Research Biochemist and Educator focused on providing Naturecompatible
health care solutions. Much of her work lies in educating clinicians on the
implementation of Nutrigenomic Medicine, especially as it relates to her Gut Ecology
& Metabolic Modulation Protocol (the G.E.M.M. Protocol). G.E.M.M. is a unique system
that identifies the gut as the gateway for effectively addressing acute and chronic
disease through the implementation of Nutrigenomic Medicine.
