Nutrigenomics is a new scientific area that uses modern genomics technology to study the relationship between genes, nutrition and health. 

 

Some people respond differently from others to certain foods and we've known that for a long time. For example, those with lactose intolerance get an upset GI system after consuming certain dairy products, while others can have dairy without issues.

 

Likewise, some people are able to lose weight faster and healthier on a high protein diet and on others, it has no effect.

 

Nutrigenomics allows us to understand how our genes affect the way we respond to the foods, beverages and supplements we consume. Skip the trial and error and find out what your genetics suggest are the best recommendations for you.
