Özet
Nutrigenomics is one of the upcoming sciences that have the potential to open up new arenas towards healthand disease management. Earlier generalized approach towards health and disease management was employed in thehealth sector in which human genetics and its respective environment was taken into account, nevertheless in thiscontemporary approach nutrition and its interaction with human genome holds focal position. With regards to nutritionand human genomics and their interaction two terms as nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics are employed but both of theseterms are distant as well as closely related depending upon the context. According to various different research studiesconducted on the subject revealed that nutrients have the potential of influencing gene and its expression. Nutrients doserve as qualifying agents that can affect the overall functioning of genes at all levels. In order to uncover the variousaspects and to deepen our comprehension on the subject various different approaches-more precisely ‘OMICS’ sciencesare employed. Transcriptomics, Proteomics, Metabolomics and Epigenomics greatly serve the purpose. Nutrigenomicshas been anticipated as a revolutionary scientific approach that will provide us with more customized, tailor-made andindividual specific approach towards health and disease management.
