Nutrigenomics -- developing personalized diets for disease prevention -- part 2 just published in OMICS
Date:3/17/2009

>

This special nutrigenomics issue of OMICS presents articles on the following themes and findings:

  • Genome-environment interactions and prospective technology assessment in omics science and innovations
  • Three weeks of nutritional intervention with virgin olive oil, at doses common in the Mediterranean diet, may alter the expression of genes related to atherosclerosis development and progression
  • Study of the biophysical, biochemical and metabolic changes during weight loss, maintenance and regain
  • Qualitative research in the form of focus groups reports on the knowledge and attitudes of consumers and health care professionals regarding nutritional genomics
  • Risk assessment and communication frameworks and socio-ethical standards on genotype-phenotype associations in nutrigenomics, and measures to bridge the gap between omics science and society
  • Ethical, legal and social issues (ELSIs) associated with commercialization and patenting in nutrigenomics
  • Taste is a nutritional gatekeeper for the body influencing which foodstuff is ingested or rejected
  • Present state of the knowledge on genetic variation in taste, and how such variation might influence food intake behaviors is discussed
