Genetic Variation and Personalized Nutrition: A Review of Dietary Needs Based on Genetic Variation
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: Genetic Variations are known to affect how different human populations put up with food and meet their dietary needs, resulting in the rise of nutritional geonomics. However, because the relation between genes and diet is tangled and not yet fully understood, implementing genetic information to wide dietary guidelines carry people probable risks. Personalized nutrition or nutrigenetics is an emerging field that seeks to make dietary recommendations to individual’s genetic profile. The success of nutrigenetics not only depends on science but also on consumer acceptance and uptake. By understanding how genetic differences shape nutrient metabolism, researchers are hopeful to appear with personalized nutritional plans that will improve health for each individual based on their unique genetic profiles. This review article provides a concise overview of nutrigenetics and its relation to dietary needs, limitations and the future perspectives
