The epigenetics of trauma has a purpose; To pass on to our children what they should avoid to stay alive.
So first, a question; What are the ramification of ridding our trauma and not passing along those epigenetic changes to out children?
Also, if you want to rid yourself of epigenetic trauma you need to understand DNA methylation and histone modification.
Both can be controlled by diet.
For Methylation, B viatmins, Zinc, Folate, can all change DNA methylation

Histone modification seems to be controlled by fatty acids

IMHO, I feel the reason obesity is so linked with trauma is this attempt of the body to fix histone modification.

- Teever 4y agoAre you suggesting that we should beat our kids so that they won't beat their kids?
- FollowingTheDao 4y agoNo. What I am saying is that if you are genetically predisposed to aggression, histone modifications and DNA methylation might inhibit that aggression. If you’re not genetically predisposed to aggression then beating your kids might have the opposite effect. The answer is if you’re aggressive focus on fixing yourself and don’t worry about your kids.
