  • Summary

  • This podcast explores the potential impact of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on brain function, particularly in the workplace. The podcast examines three specific SNPs: Val66Met in the BDNF gene, which is linked to enhanced neuroplasticity and improved memory; Val158Met in the COMT gene, which affects dopamine metabolism and can lead to better focus but also heightened stress susceptibility; and rs6311 in the HTR2A gene, which influences serotonin regulation and can contribute to greater mood stability and resilience. The podcast emphasizes that while these SNPs offer potential advantages, lifestyle factors, such as diet, exercise, and stress management, play crucial roles in how these genetic variations manifest in daily life.
