Don't blame it on Epigenetics.

[James Marusek 5,244]

Whatever you do, don't blame it on Epigenetics! This has nothing to do with weight loss surgery (at least I don't think). But I read this article this morning and I still don't understand it. But any article that incorporates "flapdoodle love" in an article has got my attention. Anyways maybe I am just getting old and my thought patterns are getting disrupted.

Epigenetics is a new term that describes how genes get turned on or remain off. Methylation is a process that keeps genes turned off so that they will not make the Proteins that they are supposed to make. Acetylation, on the other hand, turns genes on, allowing proteins to be synthesized. With any new subject, people will make dramatic claims without knowing the scope of limitations of the scientific technology. This is called quack science.
