As many people have no idea what nutrigenomics entails, not to speak about what it should, The Medical Futurist decided to show what nutrigenomics means, where the technology stands at the moment and what it could bring in the future.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003C!--more-->\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Food shopping and eating out in 2068\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Mathilda had her full genome sequenced in school as part of the general health check-up. Her parents didn’t only receive a \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fmedicalfuturist.com\u002Fmydna-review\">pharmacogenomic\u003C\u002Fa> overview of how her body metabolizes drugs, but also a nutrigenomic report on what she should eat and what kind of food sorts are to avoid at all cost. When she turned 18, her parents handed over the access to the cloud storing her health data and told her that now she is responsible for choosing her own diet. When Mathilda went online for the first time to buy original Peruvian coffee beans as she finally wanted to try real coffee, she got a notification on her smartphone that her body cannot process caffeine effectively and she should reconsider her choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>At first, she thought that’s nonsense and bought the beans anyway. However, after the package arrived by drone delivery and the robotic assistant of the family, Maya, made the coffee for her in the afternoon, she couldn’t sleep until four in the morning. Next time, when the little bee-shaped dietary assistant on her smartphone appeared with some food advice, she accepted. She went to a restaurant with a friend, had two favorite meals on the menu and asked the smart algorithm which one would be more advisable to choose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>That’s how we imagine nutrigenomics in action in the future shaping what, how and when we should eat. However, we are far far away from this scenario. Most people don’t know what, how and when to eat – and even if the majority learned the basics of dietetics, they might not get the right diet. As in the last couple of years, nutrigenomics started to batter at our door, that might change.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-21396\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"870\" height=\"305\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002F1712507217.rsc.cdn77.org\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fblog_nutrigenomics_final.jpg\" alt=\"nutrigenomics\" class=\"wp-image-21396\" srcset=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fblog_nutrigenomics_final.jpg 870w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fblog_nutrigenomics_final-768x269.jpg 768w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fblog_nutrigenomics_final-512x180.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \u002F>\u003Cfigcaption>Source: www.pathway.com\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>The basics of nutrigenomics\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>While the science of nutrigenomics appeared approximately 15 years ago, the idea that food affects people differently has been around for centuries. Roman poet and philosopher, Lucretius already said at around the first century B.C. that \u003Cem>what is food to one, is to others bitter poison\u003C\u002Fem>. However, we arrived recently at a stage where we can explain the reasons for this phenomenon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>It’s amazing that according to Interpretome.com individuals vary at the genetic level by about 1 in 1300 bases, so any 2 individuals share about 99.97 percent. So all the differences between people are to be found in the remaining 0.03 percent – which actually still means thousands and thousands of single nucleotide variants where all the difference is made.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In a nutshell, \u003Cstrong>genomics in general and nutrigenomics, in particular, look at your genetic map and try to explain your tendencies to react to your environment in your own unique way\u003C\u002Fstrong>. In the words of Neil Grimmer, Founder & CEO of \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fhabit.com\u002F\">Habit\u003C\u002Fa>, a California-based start-up focusing on personalizing meal plans based on genetic background, “\u003Cstrong>nutrigenomics\u003C\u002Fstrong> \u003Cstrong>looks at your genetic makeup and how it affects the way your body processes food\u003C\u002Fstrong>. It’s about how our unique biology interacts with the food we consume. This means that when thinking about nutrigenomics, we need to think about more than just our genes. We also need to think about how proteins and other metabolites respond to the foods we eat.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cfigure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone size-full wp-image-21395\">\u003Cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"870\" height=\"419\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002F1712507217.rsc.cdn77.org\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fnutrigenomics.jpg\" alt=\"nutrigenomics\" class=\"wp-image-21395\" srcset=\"https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fnutrigenomics.jpg 870w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fnutrigenomics-768x370.jpg 768w, https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.medicalfuturist.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2018\u002F08\u002Fnutrigenomics-512x247.jpg 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 870px) 100vw, 870px\" \u002F>\u003Cfigcaption>Source: www.pressedvibrance.com\u003C\u002Ffigcaption>\u003C\u002Ffigure>\n\n\n\n\u003Ch2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">\u003Cstrong>Nutrigenomics is the blockchain of food science\u003C\u002Fstrong>\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>With the advancement of genetics and as the number of ventures offering direct-to-consumer genetic testing services is skyrocketing, there are more and more companies providing nutrigenomic assistance.
