Nutrigenetics and the Rhythms of Life : Understanding how your genes shape every cycle, season and stage of life

Life moves in rhythms — and so do our hormones. In this course, we explore how genetic variation shapes the way each person responds to, and regulates, the hormonal cycles that govern health across a lifetime. Drawing on the latest in nutrigenetics, Nutrigenetics and the Rhythms of Life examines four interconnected rhythms: the circadian interplay of cortisol and melatonin, the monthly ebb and flow of oestrogen and progesterone, the seasonal cycle of vitamin D and light, and the profound hormonal shifts that mark life's key transitions — puberty, pregnancy and the postnatal period, perimenopause and menopause.
