The Programs that Control Us and Our Health

In this episode, Dr. David Hanscom talks with Dr, Bruce Lipton, a stem cell biologist and author of the best-selling book, The Biology of Belief. He discusses his perspective on the relationship between environment and genetics, emphasizing the distinction between the external environment and the internal environment controlled by the brain. He explains how the brain releases chemistry that affects cellular behavior and genetics, rather than the external environment directly influencing cells. He criticizes mainstream medicine for focusing on symptoms rather than causes. He emphasizes that connection and community empower us.

As a senior research scientist at Stanford University’s School of Medicine, his groundbreaking cloning experiments revealed the biochemical pathways by which the mind controls behavior and genetic activity, presaging today’s revolutionary field of epigenetics. Dr. Lipton’s research has been published in prestigious scientific journals including Science, Nature, Journal of Cell Biology, Developmental Biology, Biochemistry, and Experimental Cell Research.
