Dr. Ann Shippy: Fertility, Longevity and Mold Detoxification
Have you considered how the choices you make today shape the health and destiny of your children before they’re ever born?
What if the most important gift you could ever give your future child is the health and resilience you build in yourself today?
As rates of chronic health conditions in children—including autism, anxiety, diabetes, obesity, and autoimmune disorders—continue to rise, it’s time to take preconception seriously.
Science shows that the health of our children is determined not just by genetics, but epigenetics. Your health at the time of conception is a snapshot or time capsule that contains the genetic and epigenetic blueprint for your child for the rest of time.
It’s a shocking realization, especially for men: Your lifestyle choices during preconception will forever affect the genetics and health of your children (and their children!).
That means optimizing your health and fitness is not merely an exercise in vanity, but an opportunity to give your future children the best chance at health and success.
After all, the biological definition of fitness is the ability to produce healthy offspring.
Today, we’re exploring how the choices we make today shape not just our own health, but the health of our future children and even generations to come.
I’m thrilled to be joined by Dr. Ann Shippy, a unicorn in the world of medicine—a board-certified internal medicine physician, certified Functional Medicine Practitioner, and a former IBM engineer who’s turned her passion for macro-level systems thinking and problem-solving into a mission to revolutionize how we think about health.
If you care about your health, your family’s future, or just want to understand how to build true resilience in a toxic world, you’re in the right place.
In this episode, you’ll discover:
- The impact of environmental toxins, mold, and gut health on fertility, child development, and longevity
- How Dr. Shippy reversed the effects of toxic mold exposure, including ALS-type symptoms, pain, and fatigue in her own family
- How to give your future children the best chance at health and success by optimizing epigenetics at preconception
- And much more…
