Reading HN causes epigenetic changes...

If you don't get that, then you don't understand epigenetics

My impression of this thread is "I don't know the difference between genetics and epigenetics, so here is my opinion on weed..."

The only reason I know the difference is because I used to use the gym at the same time as an epigeneticist.

In short, all genes can be flipped on/off based on their environment.

And reading HN does impact the environment in which your genes live

I read a study some time back about verbal abuse causing epigenetic changes.It seems that even people being mean to you is all it takes.

I feel like we may not fully understand what these changes really signify.
