Genetics and Epigenetics, are they the same?

No, it is not entirely the same. We will provide a simple analogy to help understand the difference:

Epigenetics is equivalent to changing skin color when exposed to more sunshine.
Genetics is the skin color we were born with.

If the sunshine can influence our skin color, then our diet, nutrition, toxicity levels, and so forth may also have the capacity to influence our gene expression. These types of influences can result in changes to our health and wellness.
