The Impact of Genetics and Epigenetics on Prenatal Development with Dr. Aimie and William Walsh

Our biology is a delicate balance between our predisposed genetics and daily behaviors that influence our ever-fluctuating epigenetics; both determine our mental stability.

Ever wondered how your biology before birth can shape your mental health? In this episode of 'The Biology of Trauma', Dr. Aimie Apigian is joined by William Walsh, the founder of the Walsh Institute, to unravel the intricate dance between genetics and epigenetics during in-utero development. They dive into how our genetic blueprint and daily behaviors influence our mental stability, even before we are born.

Walsh explains how oxidative stress and depleted folate levels can affect both mother and baby, leading to developmental issues. Dr. Aimie shares her personal journey of understanding her biology, which helped her overcome depression and ditch antidepressants. This episode is packed with practical advice on identifying and treating epigenetic disorders, making it a must-listen for anyone interested in the science of trauma healing.

Tune in to gain valuable insights into how your biology affects your mental wellbeing from the very start.
