Calling epigenics "reprogramming" makes it seem like the right combination of vitamins and heart-shaped herbs can turn you into a were-panther.

Your genes can be reprogrammed, but the relationship between epigenics and actual reprogramming is more like the relationship between Chrome and iOS — in that, in the few occasions when it's possible for the former to mess with be later, this is widely regarded as catastrophically bad.
