Nutrigenomics And Personalized Nutrition: Should Our Genes Determine What We Eat?

Course overview

There is increasing awareness among researchers, educators, healthcare professionals and consumers that the one-size-fits-all approach to nutritional guidance is inefficient and often ineffective. This awareness has led to extensive research efforts aimed at identifying genetic markers that can help to predict how an individual responds to the various foods, beverages and supplements they consume. It has also created a growing demand for genetic testing services for personalized nutrition. This webinar will provide an overview of the science of nutrigenomics and give examples of clinical utility. It will also provide practical tips on what to look for in a genetic test for personalized nutrition, how to ensure that you are adequately trained and how to integrate it into your private practice.
