Cravings are not a personal failure. They are often a biological signal.

When your body cannot efficiently make energy from food, the brain demands fast fuel. That demand shows up as cravings, not because of weak willpower, but because your biochemistry is out of balance.

This is why sustainable change starts with understanding how your genes influence energy production, neurotransmitters, and metabolism. When those pathways are supported correctly, the constant battle with cravings can finally stop.

🧬 Stop blaming yourself. Start understanding your biology. For more info on how to get tested, visit myhappygenes.com.

🧬 Your genes are not your destiny. Epigenetics explains why.

For years, we were told that our DNA determines our health outcomes. But modern science tells a very different story. While your genes provide the blueprint, your daily choices determine how those genes are expressed.

This is the science of epigenetics.

What you eat, how you manage stress, how well you sleep, and even your environment can turn genetic pathways up or down, for better or worse.

Understanding your genetic variants is only the first step. Real change happens when you learn how to work with your biology through targeted nutrition, lifestyle strategies, and the right biochemical support.

This article breaks down how epigenetics works, why one-size-fits-all health advice fails, and how personalized genetic insights can help you take control of your health in a meaningful, science-backed way.

Ever wonder if you’re allergic to your own brain?

It turns out, that may not be as far-fetched as it sounds.

Some people experience what Dr. J calls “brain allergies,” where histamine reactions show up as mood changes instead of sinus symptoms. The triggers can be foods you would never suspect, including foods often labeled as healthy.

Common signs include:
😭 Sudden mood crashes
🌀 Racing thoughts or insomnia
🧠 Brain fog and low motivation
😰 Anxiety with unexplained fatigue

Genetic variants play a major role in determining who is susceptible to these reactions.

In this week’s Q&A, Dr. J explains:
✨ How histamine affects brain chemistry
🧬 Which genes increase risk
📝 How to identify personal food triggers
💚 What can be done to support these pathways

Your mood changes may not be “all in your head.” They may be biochemical.

Male pattern baldness is not simply a cosmetic issue. It is often a hormonal signal driven by genetics.

In this Q&A, Dr. J explains how specific genetic variants can increase the conversion of testosterone into dihydrotestosterone (DHT). DHT damages hair follicles, but it also affects the prostate. This is why hair loss and prostate issues so often appear together. The same hormone is driving both.

The good news is this process can be influenced. By identifying genetic variants that affect methylation and hormone metabolism, it is possible to reduce excessive DHT conversion and restore balance. In clinical practice, Dr. J has seen cases where hair loss slows or even reverses, alongside improvements in energy, strength, stamina, and libido.

Genetically, hair loss is a hormonal signal.

In this Q&A, Dr. J explains how the same hormone driving male pattern baldness, dihydrotestosterone (DHT), also affects prostate health. Specific genetic variants can increase how aggressively testosterone is converted into DHT, impacting both hair follicles and prostate tissue.

When you understand these pathways, you can address the root cause instead of reacting to symptoms.

Men, thinning hair is not just a cosmetic concern. It can also be a sign of what is happening hormonally.

Male pattern baldness and prostate issues are often connected through DHT, a hormone created when testosterone is converted too aggressively. Certain genetic variants increase this conversion, impacting both hair follicles and prostate tissue.

In this week’s Q&A, Dr. J explains how genetics influence this pathway and why addressing the underlying biochemistry matters more than treating symptoms in isolation.

When these pathways are supported correctly, some men experience improved hormone balance, better prostate markers, and in some cases, visible hair regrowth.

This conversation is not about vanity. It is about long-term health.

Struggling with ADD, anxiety, irritability, or low mood is not a personal failure. In many cases, it reflects how your brain chemistry is genetically wired.

The MyHappyGenes® Mood & Personality Report is designed to bring clarity where there has often been self-blame. It helps explain why focus may be difficult, why moods can fluctuate, or why irritability and depression can show up repeatedly. This report reframes symptoms as biological signals, not character flaws, and creates space for self-compassion grounded in science.

From there, the Diet & Lifestyle Report provides the next layer of insight. It identifies how specific foods, nutrients, and lifestyle factors may be contributing to biochemical imbalances, and where targeted adjustments can help restore balance. Together, these reports empower individuals to recognize patterns, understand triggers, and take informed, practical steps toward better mental and emotional health.

Genetic insight does not label you. It explains you, and gives you tools to work with your biology instead of fighting it.

Many people living with anxiety, depression, ADD, or emotional reactivity are taught to believe they should simply “try harder” or “calm down.” That belief often leads to chronic self-blame rather than solutions.

Dr. J explains that this internal dialogue is part of the problem. Persistent anxiety and mood symptoms are frequently rooted in biochemistry shaped by genetics, not a lack of effort or discipline. When the brain’s neurotransmitter pathways are out of balance, willpower alone is rarely effective.

The MyHappyGenes® reports are designed to replace self-judgment with understanding. By identifying genetic variants that influence mood regulation, stress response, and focus, individuals can shift from asking “What’s wrong with me?” to “What does my body need?” and take targeted steps to restore balance.

For years, Dr. J blamed herself for depression. She thought she just wasn’t strong enough to “think happy thoughts” that something was wrong with her.

Everything changed when she tested her genes.

Understanding that her brain chemistry couldn’t make neurotransmitters the same way as others wasn’t limiting, it was liberating. It replaced years of self-judgment with compassion, clarity, and a new way forward.

This is the human pattern we rarely talk about:
We compare ourselves to others.
We ask, “Why can’t I be happy?”
We internalize biology as personal failure.

🧬 Genetics don’t take away responsibility. They take away shame. And that understanding is exactly why MyHappyGenes® was created: to help people understand why they are the way they are and finally offer themselves compassion.

“Why can’t I just think happy thoughts and feel better?”

If you’ve ever asked yourself this, this week’s Q&A may bring clarity.

Dr. J shares her personal experience with depression, years of self-blame, and constant comparison to people who seemed naturally happy. Everything changed when she tested her genes.

She discovered that her brain chemistry worked differently. Genetic variants affected how her body produced neurotransmitters. She wasn’t broken. She simply needed different support.

In this conversation, Dr. J explains:
• Why self-compassion is foundational to healing
• How genetics influence mood and anxiety
• Why certain “healthy” foods can worsen symptoms for some people
• Simple dietary changes that support neurotransmitter balance
• How to recognize when mood challenges are biochemical

Understanding her genetics also gave Dr. J compassion for her father, who struggled with mood and addiction without access to these insights.

You are not broken. You are biochemical. And biochemistry can be supported.

Hormones, metabolism, mood, and energy are never controlled by just one thing.

Dr. J reminds us that focusing on a single gene or supplement ignores how the body actually works, as an interconnected system of pathways that must stay in balance.

This is why one-size-fits-all solutions so often fail. Real change happens when we look at the whole picture: genetics, biochemistry, environment, and how they interact over time.

🧬 Precision matters when it comes to your health.

How I Found My Happy Genes!

This program was designed to show you where you may have inherited some genes that cause you to struggle with depression, anxiety, attention or addiction issues. Having struggled myself for many years, I found help through understanding my genetic variants that were causing difficulties for me. It was so comforting to realize that there was a real reason for my mood disorders and to have some answers about how to balance myself with nutritional supplements. Today, I feel happy, focused and more balanced than I have ever felt in my life. I want to pass this knowledge on to those who are struggling too. In this program you will likely find some insights into what make you unique and where you might be struggling.
