A completely new way to look at fat loss, autoimmune conditions, and optimal health. What if that banana you had for breakfast was actually sabotaging your health efforts? Health, metabolism, and weight are controlled by both our genetics and our lifestyle, in essence a balance between nature and nurture. By identifying our strengths and our weaknesses genetically, as well as our body chemistry through advanced targeted testing, we now have the ability to influence our health like never before.

Learn how to build muscle and get in shape with these 15-minute workouts you can do at home. While a gym membership can be a great investment in one's own body and health, many of us simply have neither the time nor the experience for lengthy and complicated workouts. Fortunately this doesn't mean you can't get fit in your own four walls. All you need is your own body and the motivation to follow a simple but effective 15-minute workout routine a few times per week.

How could a relatively simple chemical code give rise to the complexity of a human being? How could our human genome have evolved? And how does it actually work? Your genome defines you at the most profound level. That same genome is present in every one of the approximately 100,000 billion cells that make you who you are as an individual member of the human species. An important ingredient of the genome, and its essential nature, is memory .

Nie war der Traum vom ewigen Leben so aktuell wie heute. Jung, aktiv, gesund und attraktiv wollen wir sein, und das auch im hohen Alter. Nun haben Wissenschaftler das große Rätsel unserer Vergänglichkeit entschlüsselt. Und sie haben erste Techniken entwickelt, die den Alterungsprozess kontrollieren. Der Wissenschaftsjournalist Ulrich Bahnsen nimmt uns mit auf eine spannende Reise zu den weltweit führenden Altersforscher:innen und entdeckt epigenetische Therapien, mit deren Hilfe wir unseren Körper um Jahrzehnte verjüngen können.

Eine faszinierende Vorstellung: Wie wäre es, wenn sich die biologische Uhr, die in jedem von uns tickt, anhalten ließe – oder sogar ein Stück zurückdrehen? Und das nicht bloß gefühlt, sondern messbar? Dieses Versprechen ist seit Kurzem Realität. Der junge Forschungszweig der Epigenetik hat den Deckel von der Altersuhr gehoben – und in aktuellen Studien nun sogar den Sprung in die praktische Anwendung geschafft. Genau darum geht es in diesem Hörbuch: Was kann ich ganz konkret tun, um meine Altersuhr zurückzudrehen? Um wie viele Monate oder gar Jahre lässt sich der Zeiger zurückstellen?

In Strange Bedfellows, David P. Barash and Judith Eve Lipton look at how biology actually promotes monogamy in some species and how these lessons apply to human beings. An accessible work of science that is relevant to our intimate daily life, Strange Bedfellows will reassure some people, surprise others, and engage everyone.

La specie umana, unica tra le specie viventi, è in grado di ricostruire la propria storia biologica. Da un lato tutti gli uomini appartengono a una sola specie, dall'altro non esistono due uomini uguali sulla terra, tanto è grande la variabilità genetica tra individuo e individuo. Unica tra le specie è anche la nostra complessa storia culturale e tra le due evoluzioni, biologica e culturale, esistono convergenze ma anche divergenze.

人類の歴史は、地球規模の支配を築いた壮大な成功の物語のようにも見える。しかし、その成功の裏で、ホモ・サピエンスはずっと「借りものの時間」を生きてきた。何千年も続いた栄光は、今や終わりが近づいている。なぜそうなったのか？

チャールズ・ダーウィンの『種の起源』は、生物の進化がなぜ起こるのかを自然淘汰で説明し「神が天地創造の際にすべての生き物を完璧な姿でつくった」というキリスト教の世界観を覆した。コペルニクスの地動説と並び、人類に知的革命を起こした大名著である。

Imagine a future where we grow houses rather than build them. Where smartphones are living, clothing has opinions, and all human knowledge fits into a speck of DNA. A world where disease is a thing of the past, and the human lifespan is dramatically extended. To achieve this, says Adrian Woolfson – founder of the genome writing company Genyro – we must transform biology into a predictive, programmable engineering material. That means decoding the generative grammar of DNA: the language of life itself. We will then be able to author genomes – and, if we choose, even rewrite our own.

Prepare for a mind-expanding journey. Discover how intelligence evolved, starting from DNA and RNA genesis, all the way to the rise of machines. Imagine a world where evolutionary principles influence machine learning algorithms, crafting Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). This provocative exploration delves deep into evolution, unlocking parallels between natural selection and the birth of computing intelligence. The narrative charts an exhilarating course from the dawn of life to an AGI-dominated future.

¿Qué es un genoma? ¿Qué moléculas lo constituyen? ¿Cuál es su estructura? ¿Cuál es su función? ¿Cómo se secuencia? ¿Qué diferencias hay entre los genomas de diferentes especies? ¿Qué genomas se han secuenciado hasta ahora? ¿Por qué y para qué? ¿Qué hemos descubierto del genoma humano? ¿Qué nos depara el futuro? Estas y muchas otras preguntas, dudas, reticencias y precauciones son las que la autora, responsable del Laboratorio de Secuenciación Automática de DNA del Instituto de Investigaciones Biomédicas "Alberto Sols" (IIB) CSIC-UAM, y coordinadora de las jornadas ...

Hvem er jeg? En dna-kode oversat til kød og blod er det hurtige svar, men hvad betyder det? Bestemmer den nedarvede kode alt fra min hårfarve over partnervalg til jobsituation eller har "jeg" noget at skulle have sagt her? Er der i det hele taget et frit og ubundet "jeg", eller gennemspiller "jeg" bare et computerprogram i dna-kode, der dikterer mit liv og min død? Lone Frank har i "Mit smukke genom" sat sig for at finde ud af så meget om sine egne gener som muligt.

En este nuevo libro, Jorge Dotto, médico patólogo y genetista, autor también de Genética. Cómo puede cambiar nuestras vidas, nos explica de modo ameno y entretenido, de qué manera los genes participan en nuestras situaciones de placer, al tiempo que subraya la importancia de los factores ambientales y la propia voluntad de las personas para lograr un mejor vínculo con las distintas formas de recompensarse.

Immer mehr Einzelheiten werden darüber bekannt, wie epigenetische Prozesse die Aktivität von Genen steuern. Bisher wurde vor allem diskutiert, welchen Einfluss die Umwelt so auf unser Erbgut nehmen kann - mit Langzeitfolgen über Generationen hinweg. Doch inzwischen diskutieren Forschende, inwieweit sich diese Erkenntnisse auch gezielt medizinisch nutzen lassen.

Una piccola sigla, un mondo di significati: il DNA è una risorsa contro le malattie, uno strumento per identificare gli assassini e una chiave per comprendere il comportamento umano. La sua storia è talmente antica da intrecciarsi con quella della comparsa della vita sulla Terra. E in futuro? Proviamo a parlarne direttamente con lui. Dalla genetica di Neandertal alla clonazione di esseri umani, metteremo a fuoco speranze (e timori) che grazie al DNA si aprono per la scienza e per le nostre esistenze.
