(LONG) NIMHANS RESEARCH ON "CHILDREN OF ALCOHOLICS" || Dr Sanjeev Jain, NIMHANS

#ShrutiVermaSingh, Founder, Zen-Brain.com speaks to #DrSanjeevJain, Psychiatrist & Professor from NIMHANS (The National Institute of Mental Health and Neuro-Sciences, Bangaluru, India) on their latest study that states that children of #alcoholics experience a higher amount of #stress...and the epigenetics suggests that the expression of the #serotonin transporter #gene (which is involved in anxiety) is modified! BUT IT'S NEVER TO REWIRE YOUR #BRAIN! #Epigenetics is the understanding of how genes control the way our body works throughout our lives...The genetic code that we are born with is going to express itself in different ways given the different environments our bodies are exposed to. It can be as simple a thing as temperature so our gene expression changes with the weather ...if you go to the arctic circle it will react in a different way and it will also react differently to nutritional and emotional stress and to everything that goes on around us because all our organs are exquisitely tuned to our environment ...we feel hungry , we feel thirsty, we feel happy, we feel sad, we feel depressed ...so genes have to constantly interact with the environment ...hence the environment has a huge role to play in influencing how our genes are expressed and epigenetics is a way to understand that! So with particular kinds of changes in the body or mind the genes that control the chemicals that influence anxiety...for example serotonin, which is a #neurotransmitter which we know controls #moods #anxiety, and #sleep ...the expression of that in critical parts of the brain may get altered by stress so that your brain does not react...or changes the way it reacts to stress over time.
