I've haven't read the book yet, but I found enough interest in it to buy it 
and then left it at my mother's house when I was visiting.  It's called 
Genetic Nutritioneering by Jeffery S Bland PhD.  "how specific foods and 
nutrients can be used to improve gene expression to slow biological aging 
and reduce the risk of age-related diseases. It covers the use of gene 
expression",etc.   Oliva
