Genetic Diet
Diet plans based on nutrigenomics rely on an analysis of your genetic makeup to inform dietary recommendations that meet your personal nutritional and health needs and help prevent nutrition-related chronic diseases.
The idea that one diet suits all is not the case, as each individual and body type is different and every individual is unique. Research has investigated DNA and how a diet can be created from each gene in our bodies to get a diet personalized and suited to you.
A DNA diet tries to overcome the struggles people face when it comes to dieting as it provides a diet based solely on an individual’s DNA.
Motivation and understanding
Once we understand what diet is best for us it is still hard to make those diet changes.
When compared to dietitian intervention only, dietitian plus DNA testing improves understanding, motivation and compliance to healthy eating
