Excerpt

Nutrigenetics refers to the interaction of genotype and diet composition to influence metabolism, health status and the risk of diet-related diseases. Gene variants influence food choice and appetite and therefore the intake of dietary components, their absorption, metabolism and tissue uptake along with their impact on molecular targets and physiological processes. …
