Note, however, that you can change your genes by your behavior and thoughts. Bruce Lipton outlines this in his book, THE BIOLOGY OF BELIEF. Bruce Lipton's Website.

Example: Have a parent with diabetes? Avoid sugar and think 'BALANCE'.

Also, remember you are way more than just your genes! Identical twins have the same genes but have unique experiences that are different in many ways. Some would say they have different karma.
