How do you think that these videos relate to the topic of factors that help determine our

health? Does one video seem more realistic than the other?

Both of these videos relate to the topic of factors that help determine our health

because both present factors that do determine our health, that can help change

the course that our lives were going on for the better. For example, Your genes

are not your fate, it has been stated that the healthier you eat, the more you

manage your stress, and exercise and love you receive the more your brain

actually gets more blood flow and oxygen. With just simply doing that your brain

becomes measurably bigger. Another thing you can do to grow your brain cells is

chocolate, tea, blueberries, alcohol in moderation, stress management and

cannabinoids found in marijuana. With that your skin gets more blood flow and

you age slower. Your heart gets more blood flow resulting in the reverse of heart

disease. Along with that clogged arteries can become unclogged. With those you

may be able to stop progression of early prostate, tumor growth, and breast

cancer. It also stated it gives more flow to organs, helping them work a lot better.

It has been shown that you are able to turn off bad genes and turn on good ones

with this lifestyle, it can even help you fight diseases. The other one video, The

hunt for “unexpected genetic heroes.” It stated that they were looking for

mutations in genetic codes that saved people from getting the disease or sick. So

they were going to study healthy people who had somehow missed the disease

and try to plot out a resilience decoder ring. They are basically trying to undo

faulty and bad genes. One does seem a lot more realistic than the other, Your

genes are not your fate, seems more realistic because we are changing

something that we are able to do, it is in our hands. Decoding and changing our

genes would be great but we do not have that in our grasps quite yet, so the other

is more realistic and easier. You are just changing into a healthier lifestyle.

The first video seems to give a simple message about how leading a more stress-free

life can vastly improve our health. If it’s that simple, why are so many people stressed

and sick?

So many people are stressed and sick because they do not know how to handle

their stress in a healthy way, meaning they do not have coping methods to

release that stress. Another factor is that one may not be able to escape stress

for example they go to work and handle that stress and maybe after calming

themselves they go home and have to deal with their kids, what to have for

dinner, the bills, and the needs of the family. It is stressful and on top of that they

need to take care of themselves which many don't so they stress really impacts

them making their health go downhill resulting in catching a cold or being sick

since their body is handling too many things at once.

In the first video, Dean Ornish closes by saying, “Well, our genes are not our fate, and if

we make these changes, there’s a predisposition. But if we make bigger changes than

we might have made otherwise, we can actually change how our genes are expressed.”
