As I’ll talk about in more depth in later chapters, the primary influence controlling telomerase activity is the mind, which is influenced by the programming we acquired before age seven. And, as I’ll discuss, YES . . . we can consciously empower ourselves by actively enhancing our own telomerase. And, YES, because I can’t repeat this enough, factoring in all the wonderful research that has been done in the last decade: it’s the environment, stupid!
