Nutrigenomics and Nutrigenetics in Functional Foods and Personalized Nutrition

With contributions from many of the key players in nutrigenomics, this text brings together valuable new technological understanding in one volume. It utilizes both nutrigenomic (effects of diet on gene expression) and nutrigenetic (matching diet to genotype) approaches, and describes how they might be applied to the food industry and to the health professions. New discoveries in this field will enable foods to be tailored to genotype and enable sensitive monitoring of phenotypic changes resulting from food-gene interactions, whether they be human or animal foods.
