Nutrigenomics: The Future of Personalized Nutrition

Roots Analysis

Recent advances in DNA sequencing technologies have led to significant developments in healthcare-focused research on precision medicine and diagnostics. According to a study, around 20,000 genes are present in the human body, all of which interact with the nutrients in the food, either directly or indirectly.
