Comment with “histamine” and I'll send you the full video!

Your "healthy" fermented foods might be making you worse. 😰

Kimchi. Sauerkraut. Kombucha. You've been told they're gut-healing superstars.

But what if they're triggering headaches, anxiety, skin flushes, and digestive chaos instead?

The hidden culprit: histamine intolerance.

Your body can't clear histamine fast enough—and those "superfoods" are overflowing the bucket.

🎥 In my new video, you'll discover:

✨ Why fermented foods backfire (and the signs your body is struggling with
histamine)

✨ The DAO enzyme secret – your gut's natural histamine "drain" and how to boost
it

✨ The $2 sprouting trick that creates 5X more DAO than store-bought sprouts

(yes, you can do this at home!)

This isn't about restriction. It's about understanding your biochemistry and giving your body what it truly needs.

🧬 NEW PUBLICATION: How nutrition rewrites our genetic story across generations

Just published in Frontiers in Nutrition! Our review reveals how what you eat during pregnancy doesn’t just affect your baby—it programs their lifelong health through genomic imprinting.

Key Insights:
🔬 The Stereo Speaker Effect Most genes play from both parents, but imprinted genes are like stereo speakers where only one side plays. Nutrition controls the volume k***s.
🥚 The Missing Nutrients 95% of pregnant women don’t meet recommendations for at least one critical nutrient—even with supplements
🧪 Molecular Ink Folate, B12, choline, and betaine act as molecular ink, writing methylation marks that last a lifetime
📊 Dutch Hunger Winter Legacy Babies exposed to famine in utero had double the diabetes risk 50 years later—showing how nutrition programs genes for life

💡 The Bottom Line: Optimizing nutrition before and during pregnancy could improve health trajectories across generations. Your genes aren’t your destiny—they’re a story nutrition helps write.

🧠 Creatine Isn't Just for Muscles, Here's Why Your Brain Needs It

Think creatine is only for gym bros? Think again. 💪✨

This misunderstood nutrient is actually your brain's secret weapon for energy, focus, and gene protection. And most people aren't getting nearly enough.

Here's what creatine really does:

🔋 Fuels your cells, Powers ATP, the energy currency your brain and muscles run on

🧬 Protects your genes, Supports methylation (the on/off switches for your DNA)

💡 Sharpens your mind, Boosts memory, focus, and cognitive performance

💪 Builds resilience, Increases strength and supports healthy aging

The problem?
Your body only makes 1–2g per day. You get another 1–2g from meat and fish, but cooking destroys much of it.

The solution?
3–5g/day of creatine monohydrate can fill the gap.

Who benefits most?

✅ Athletes pushing their limits

✅ Adults 65+ protecting brain health

✅ Vegans & vegetarians (no dietary sources!)

✅ MTHFR gene carriers (methylation support matters!)

Creatine isn't just a sports supplement, it's cellular insurance for your brain, energy, and longevity.

Ready to support your genes from the inside out? Start with quality creatine monohydrate.

🧠 La creatina non è solo per i muscoli, ecco perché anche il tuo cervello ne ha bisogno.

Pensi che la creatina serva solo ai bodybuilder? Ripensaci. 💪✨
Questo nutriente è in realtà una fonte di energia cellulare che sostiene cervello, geni e invecchiamento sano, e la maggior parte delle persone ne assume troppo poca.

Ecco cosa fa davvero la creatina:

🔋 Dà energia alle cellule – alimenta la produzione di ATP, il “carburante” di muscoli e cervello

🧬 Protegge i tuoi geni – supporta la metilazione, l’interruttore epigenetico del DNA

💡 Rafforza mente e memoria – migliora concentrazione e performance cognitive

💪 Costruisce resilienza – aumenta forza e vitalità con l’età
Il problema?

Il corpo ne produce solo 1–2 g al giorno e carne e pesce ne forniscono un po’, ma la cottura la distrugge in gran parte.

👉 La soluzione: integrare 3–5 g al giorno di creatina monoidrato può colmare il gap.

Chi ne trae più beneficio?

✅ Atleti che vogliono migliorare le prestazioni

✅ Over 65 che vogliono proteggere cervello e muscoli

✅ Vegani e vegetariani (nessuna fonte alimentare diretta)

✅ Chi ha varianti MTHFR e bisogno di supportare la metilazione

✨ In sintesi:
La creatina non è solo un integratore sportivo, è una polizza cellulare per cervello, energia e longevità.

🥚 What if your brain and genes are running low on one forgotten nutrient?

Around 90% of people don’t get enough choline — a key nutrient for your brain, metabolism, and liver health.

🧠 It builds acetylcholine — the neurotransmitter for memory and focus.
💪 It helps your liver process fat, preventing fatty liver.
🧬 It donates methyl groups that turn genes on or off — shaping everything from energy to emotional balance.

And yet… few people even know what choline is.

Here’s the simple way to fix that ⬇️

I call it the 4 egg-yolk equivalent method:
Each day, aim for the choline found in 3–4 egg yolks (400–550 mg) — your personalized daily target.

You can get there with:
✅ 1 egg = 1 yolk equivalent
✅ 40 g liver or 150 g fish/meat = 1 yolk equivalent
🌱 Vegan? 1 tbsp soy lecithin = 1 yolk equivalent

✨ Tiny daily changes. Massive epigenetic impact.
Your genes are listening to every bite 🧬

🥚 Ti servono solo 4 tuorli (equivalenti) al giorno per nutrire cervello, fegato e geni.

🧬 Madrid, Broccoli Smoothies & The Future of Aging 🥦✨

What happens when skincare influencers, dermatologists, and a molecular biologist meet in one room? Magic. (And some “creatively courageous” smoothie experiments 😅)

This week I partnered with Eucerin for three incredible events in Madrid:

✨ Press Roundtable with Vogue, Elle, and Woman magazine

✨ Epinutrition Workshop @ DermaExpert Campus
→ Taught influencers how to “turn down” aging genes through food
→ Launched my Epinutrition booklet (recipes, checklists, kitchen science tricks!)
→ Hosted a GREEN SMOOTHIE COMPETITION 🥤
Huge thanks to .anamolina and for educating everyone on the latest lifestyle and advanced dermatology treatments!

✨ GEDET Dermatology Symposium
→ Showed how nutrition + topicals = powerful aging defense

🎉 The Spanish know how to celebrate:
After the hard work came the hard partying 🍷✨

Presenting the Voice of the Skin prize to the GEDET Gala was unforgettable.

💡 The takeaway:
Your skin doesn’t just age because of time—it ages because of signals from stress, inflammation, and what you eat.
You hold the pencil. Every meal is a message to your genes. Every bite can switch on vitality or accelerate aging.

💚 Loved creating with: .aguacate —you made learning delicious (well, mostly 😅)

🪞✨ Wrinkles don't start in your mirror—they start in your KITCHEN

Most people spend hundreds on serums that never reach where real change happens—the cellular level 💸

But here's the truth: Your skin rebuilds itself every 28 days using raw materials from your PLATE, not your bathroom shelf 🍽️✨

In my latest YouTube video, I reveal the 5 food categories that work like internal skincare:

🥩 Complete Proteins → Why 30-40g per meal is non-negotiable for collagen production

💊 The Collagen Truth → Shocking reality about powders (they might not work for everyone!)

🌈 Rainbow Epinutrients → How eating colorful foods literally switches ON your skin's repair genes and switches OFF aging ones

🐟 Omega-3s → Your skin's anti-inflammatory shield (hint: chia seeds won't cut it)

🥬 Fermented Foods → The gut-skin connection that changes everything

These aren't just foods—they're epigenetic signals that reprogram your DNA for younger-looking skin, stronger hair, and healthier nails 💅🏼🧬

Your genes are listening to every bite 👂✨
