Emerging Trends in Personalized Nutrition: The Role of Nutrigenomics in Chronic Disease Prevention

Abstract

Personalized nutrition has emerged as a groundbreaking approach to health and wellness, leveraging individual genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors to tailor nutrition strategies that promote optimal health. Nutrigenomics, the study of the interaction between genes and nutrients, plays a critical role in this field, offering insights into how specific dietary patterns can influence gene expression and contribute to the prevention of chronic diseases. This review explores the emerging trends in personalized nutrition, with a specific focus on the potential of nutrigenomics in the prevention of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. By understanding how genetic predispositions interact with nutrition, we can develop targeted dietary interventions to reduce the risk of these diseases, ultimately improving public health outcomes.
