In this episode, Dr. David Hanscom talks with Bruce Lipton, a stem cell biologist and author of the best-selling book, The Biology of Belief. He discusses the science behind how our consciousness impacts our health. He explains how stress hormones can shut down the immune system, and examines the role that the neurochemistry of the blood and epigenetics play in regulating our health and behavior.

Bruce H. Lipton, Ph.D., is a stem cell biologist and the bestselling author of The Biology of Belief, Spontaneous Evolution and The Honeymoon Effect.  He served as Associate Professor of Anatomy in the School of Medicine at the University of Wisconsin (Madison, 1973-1982). His pioneering research on cloned human stem cells presaged today’s revolutionary new field of epigenetics. Dr. Lipton later served as a Research Fellow in the Department of Pathology in Stanford University’s School of Medicine (1987-1992). His groundbreaking research there revealed the nature of the biochemical pathways by which the mind (perceptions/beliefs) controls behavior and genetic activity. Pain, Chronic Pain, Healing,
