MAO-A & MAO-B: Monoamine Oxidase, Warrior Gene, and Mood

The MAOA and MAOB genes encode enzymes that break down certain neurotransmitters. People with low MAO may be prone to mood issues in certain circumstances.

SIRTfoods diet: Sirtuins and Turning on your Skinny Genes

The SIRTfood diet, made popular by Adele’s recent weight loss, theoretically works by affecting your sirtuin gene expression. Learn about your SIRT genes and your genetic variants.

SCD1: A lynchpin of metabolism

The SCD1 enzyme converts saturated fatty acids to unsaturated fats. Learn how your genes impact this enzyme, and how this relates to weight loss.

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2): MTHFR and FMO3 SNPs

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2) is a water-soluble vitamin cofactor for many enzymes in the body. However, several genetic variants can cause an increased need for riboflavin.

Rheumatoid Arthritis: Genetics, Root Causes, and Treatment Research

Rheumatoid arthritis is caused by an immune system attack on the joints, causing thickening and inflammation of the joint capsule. It is caused by a combination of genetic susceptibility and environmental triggers.

Response to Cannabis: CB1 & CB2 Genetic Variants

Discover how genetic variants influence your susceptibility to substance abuse, and how the variants impact your body’s reaction to cannabis. (Member’s article)

Prothrombin: Blood Clot Risk

Genetic variants in the prothrombin gene increase the risk of blood clots (DVTs). Learn if you carry this risk factor for miscarriage, blood clots, and stroke.

Progesterone: creation, receptors, effects, and metabolism

Progesterone is an important hormone in women’s health. Find out how your body reacts to progesterone, breaks it down for elimination, and discover lifehacks to adjust the levels.

My Story…

Hi! I’m Debbie Moon, founder of Genetic Lifehacks.

When I first had my genetic data sequenced, I was both amazed and frustrated:  amazed by all of the genetic research available in academic journals, but frustrated by the disconnected topics and lack of accessibility.

I started Genetic Lifehacks to bridge the gap — to help everyone understand how their genes influence their health, diet, and longevity with practical and useful information based on current research studies.

With my undergraduate degree in engineering as a foundation and a Master’s degree in Biological Sciences from Clemson University (2019), I’ve built Genetic Lifehacks into a platform that has helped over 4 million readers and 17,000 members to optimize their health through understanding their genetics.
