Nutritional genomics, or nutrigenomics, explores how nutrients affect genes and individual metabolism. Increased funding and collaborative centers are now driving scientific results in this emerging field.

Area of Science:

  • Nutritional Science
  • Genetics
  • Molecular Biology

Background:

  • Human Genome and HapMap projects provide foundational data for understanding nutrient-gene interactions.
  • Nutritional genomics (nutrigenomics) investigates how dietary chemicals interact with genes to influence phenotype and metabolism.
  • The field has historically focused on potential rather than experimental results, with limited funding.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the evolution and current state of nutritional genomics research.
  • To underscore the shift towards collaborative, large-scale projects.
  • To emphasize the growing momentum in realizing the promise of nutrigenomics.

Main Methods:

  • Leveraging genomic data from projects like Human Genome and HapMap.
