About the author
Elwin Robinson
6 books1 followerElwin Robinson is the #1 Amazon Best Seller in Genetics on both Amazon US and UK.
He spent a decade teaching natural health through his online courses and YouTube channel — until his own health collapsed in his late thirties.
Conventional medicine had no answers. Genetic testing did. It revealed severe lead toxicity that no standard blood test had ever detected, and it changed the trajectory of his life and career.
That experience — of being failed by the system and then finding the root cause hiding in his own DNA — became the foundation for Advanced Health Genetics, the genetic health analysis system Elwin built to help others stop guessing and start targeting the real issues behind unexplained chronic health problems.
Since then, Elwin has helped thousands of people worldwide decode their genetic blueprint and take precise, personalized action to reclaim their health. He is the creator of the Rejuvenate Blueprint framework, the Hormetics Hormonal Optimization System, and host of the Rejuvenate Blueprint Podcast.

Am only a few chapters into this ample 500-page book, but already the opening chapters provide plenty of lightbulb moments - e.g. Robinson explains why drinking plenty of water does not necessarily fix a dehydration problem, or why some of us are deficient in CO2 or the right kind of light! And that's before we even get to chapters on vitamins & minerals.
This isn't yet another nutrition book that simply regurgitates what is already out there, Robinson has "looked under the hood" of many present-day common assumptions about nutrition and health, and explains why for many of us it is not as simple as "food X fixes symptom Y" or "supplement X fixes deficiency Y" – we are all different depending on the interactions of variables such as diet, lifestyle and DNA.
The author starts with the fundamentals and builds from there in a style that is both informative and impressively researched, yet easy to follow. A useful appendix provides a full list of the research papers cited throughout, but unfortunately for a book this size there is no index, so you can't quickly look up mentions of say "magnesium" or "Vitamin D". Overall though, highly recommended.
