ABSTRACT
Nutrigenomics is a field of science that examines how individuals' genetic structures interact with nutrition. By studying the effects of nutrients on gene expression, it aims to develop personalized nutrition strategies. Genetic differences are directly related to nutrient metabolism and disease risks. For example, some individuals may metabolize certain nutrients more efficiently, while others may experience different effects from the same nutrients. Nutrigenetics examines how individuals' genetic variations affect their responses to foods, while nutrigenomics investigates the effects of foods on genetic expression. For example, conditions like lactose intolerance or gluten sensitivity are linked to genetic variations. These two fields work together to provide personalized nutrition recommendations. Unlike traditional nutrition approaches, personalized nutrition aims to create specialized diet plans based on an individual’s genetic makeup, environmental factors, and lifestyle. Genetic makeup is closely related to obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular diseases. Specifically, polymorphisms in genes like FTO and MC4R can determine individuals' tendencies to store fat and their risk of weight gain. Research highlights how specific diets can influence weight control and metabolism in individuals with genetic predispositions. Nutrigenomics helps to understand how functional foods can be effective based on an individual's genetic makeup. Nutrigenomics has great potential for optimizing individuals' health by utilizing their genetic information. Protecting genetic data, ensuring it is not misused for commercial purposes, and providing individuals with reliable nutritional recommendations are crucial. In the future, with the expansion of nutrigenomic research, more specific diet recommendations will be developed, allowing for more effective nutrition strategies tailored to individuals' genetic profiles.
