It sounds like chemicals that inhibit methylation like BPA increase response to environment. What other chemicals are known to inhibit methylation?

Has the human genome project given us any tools for identifying those at risk for being more vulnerable to toxic exposures? Any studies being done in this area?

Do Lee - October 21, 2010

One type of common toxic exposure is to certain lipids in modern processed & fast food that, when in an excess or imbalance or when not metabolized properly, often cause CVD and diabetes. If a certain group or groups of people are found to have a genetic difference that makes it impossible for them to metabolize these lipids properly,what is the ethical thing to do, once you know this? There is at least one recently presented unpublished study about genetics and vulnerability to toxic exposures that is going to be ‘the bomb’…and i’m sure there are more I haven’t heard about.
