In the past decades, extensive usage of omic technologies applied to nutrition has led to the concept of personalised dietary recommendations. It is now widely accepted that gene–diet interaction is a complex, bidirectional mechanism: food components can modulate the flow of genetic information by regulating genes at transcriptional, translational and ...

A balanced and adequate diet is essential for a healthy life. Studies have shown a link between non-communicable diseases and nutrition. Cancer is a global health problem and is recognised as the second leading cause of death worldwide. Epidemiological studies have shown that a large proportion of cancers are related to lifestyle and diet.

Nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics Insights into Diabetes Etiopathogenesis [PDF]
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is considered a global pandemic, and the incidence of DM continues to grow worldwide. Nutrients and dietary patterns are central issues in the prevention, development and treatment of this disease. The pathogenesis of DM is not completely understood, but nutrient-gene interactions at different levels, genetic predisposition and ...

Coevolution of Human Diet and Gut Microbiome: Implications for Nutrigenomics and Cross-Population Health. [PDF]
The coevolution of the human diet and gut microbiome has played a pivotal role in shaping metabolic, immune, and epigenetic functions across human history. Dietary transitions from high‐fiber ancestral patterns to modern ultraprocessed diets have markedly influenced microbial diversity and functionality, contributing to the emergence of chronic ...
