There's a new buzzword going around in the world of skin care. Epigenetics, or heritable changes in gene expression, is being touted as the latest trait that can be addressed by skin-care products. It ...

Our genetic code is set for life, but not all genes are working at all times. The epigenetic code turns genes on and off in response to our environment. TWO WAYS TO SWITCH A GENE ON OR OFF: 1. DNA ...
