Your Body Changed After 40: Your Genes May Hold Clues

If you’re a woman over 40 wondering why your body suddenly feels different—even when your lab results say everything is “normal”—this episode of the V.I.B.E. Living Podcast may help you look at your health in an entirely new way.

Poor sleep. Unexplained fatigue. Inflammation. Low energy. Mood changes. A body that no longer responds to the healthy routines that used to work.

For many women navigating perimenopause, menopause and midlife, the question becomes: What is my body trying to tell me?

In this fascinating conversation, Lynnis Woods-Mullins sits down with Kim Ressler, founder and CEO of Snap Nutrigenomics, to explore how nutrigenomics, genetic testing and personalized nutrition may provide another piece of the wellness puzzle.

Kim shares her own 11-year search for answers and how understanding her genetics finally helped connect some of the dots.

Together, we break down nutrigenomics in everyday language and explore how genetic variations may influence the way your body processes nutrients and supports pathways related to inflammation, oxidative stress, detoxification, immune function and vitamin D.

You'll also discover why taking more supplements isn't necessarily better—and why a more personalized approach to supplementation may help eliminate some of the expensive guesswork.

We dive into:

• Methylation, folate and folic acid and why the differences may matter
• How genetics may provide additional context for concerns involving energy, mood and overall wellness
• The difference between information from DNA testing, blood work and hormone panels
• Why your current lab results represent a moment in time while your inherited DNA remains largely stable
• How personalized nutrition and supplementation may help you make more informed wellness decisions
• Important questions to ask before genetic testing about privacy, data sharing, sample storage and biobanking

And here's the good news: you don't need genetic testing to begin supporting your health today.

We close with simple, powerful wellness foundations that can support women throughout midlife and healthy aging: prioritizing quality sleep, making sustainable nutrition changes, moving your body consistently, managing stress and staying connected to community.

If you're between 45 and 55 and navigating perimenopause, menopause, fatigue, inflammation, changing nutritional needs or simply the feeling that your body isn't working quite the way it used to, this conversation is especially for you.

Your body isn't asking you to give up.

It may simply be asking you to pay attention differently.

Bio

Kim Ressler is the Founder and CEO of SNiP Nutrigenomics, a women-led biotech delivering DNA-personalized foundational nutrition to consumers and the practitioners who care for them.

After more than a decade searching for answers conventional medicine couldn't provide, Kim discovered that the specific genetic variants shaping her body's nutrient needs were the missing link. Once she addressed them through nutrigenomic precision, her energy, cognitive clarity, and overall resilience transformed, and SNiP was born.

She founded SNiP in 2022 to bring nutrigenomics — the science of how individual genes determine nutritional needs — out of elite performance clinics and longevity centers and into the hands of everyone. SNiP's flagship product, CODE Complex®, is a beautifully simple, made-to-order precision supplement formulated from each person's genetic profile.

Under Kim's leadership, SNiP now partners with more than 600 wellness providers and serves a rapidly growing community across North America. Her mission is to empower individuals, practitioners, and biohackers alike to align daily nutrition with their unique genetic blueprint, at the convergence of biotech, personalization, and longevity.
