Currently we live in a time where we are constantly running to learn new things and invent new technologies. Expanding with scientific technologies, mankind is rushing towards a commercial way of life like never before. At a time when prescription has become a nutritional ingredient, we have a responsibility to separate the good from the bad in food from commercial industries. We need to think a lot about food values. 

Our ancestors and the generations before them had a thorough understanding of human health and the relationship between diet and genes. This is where nutrigenomics comes into the picture. It is concerned with the application of biology on the relationship between genes and nutrients. Nutrigenomics helps to customize your diet according to your genetic material (DNA). The geographic location a person grows up in can influence his/her daily food choices but at the molecular level, our genetic material dictates everything.

Nutrigenomics has the following benefits:

Food reactions: Through nutrigenomics, you can learn how your body reacts to the foods you eat. Also, this test can help you understand the risk of adverse reactions.

Eating behavior: Your genes can learn a lot of interesting things like what foods you eat make you feel full (for example: cravings for chocolates and sweets) and what are aversive (for example: aversion to wheat products). 

Metabolic Factors: You can learn how your diet affects blood sugar levels, cholesterol levels. Similarly, you will be able to know the risk of lifestyle related diseases. 

Nutrient Requirements: You will be able to know what vitamins and minerals you need in your foods.

The food and nutrients we consume regularly give our body energy and vitality. Your genetic makeup, heart lung function, metabolism, etc. are unique to your individual personality. Your DNA creates a unique and ideal diet plan, specific to the foods you should eat. Nutrigenomics fights the prevention of “lifestyle-related diseases”.

Amid the divergent claims of corporate science, “Is the actual nutrigenomic science worthy of interest?” The question arises. To understand this question clearly, some facts about nutrigenomics are mentioned below.

• Nutrigenomics examines the relationship between what we eat and how we react to disease.
• Nutrigenomics can serve as a tool to identify a disease and the risk of its progression
• Nutrigenomics can be used to study obesity-mental health and nutrient-disease relationships.
• Nutrigenomics promotes the delivery of personalized dietary nutrition.
• Nutrigenomics helps to record the details of the quantities of dietary nutrients supplied to the body.

Finally:

Nutrigenomics will play a vital role in an individual‘s health care in the coming future. This genetic test helps you understand and analyze which foods are right for you based on your genetic profile, as well as your health and weight management goals.
