Following the lines of this book brings us to the subject of nutrigenomics: the research, discovery and understanding of the effects that some of the components of our foods have on the individual person or, more specifically, within that individual. In reality, some components of our foods, be it macro-components (carbohydrates, lipids, proteins) or micro-components (minerals, vitamins, and phytochemicals), have an effect not just on our food preference or on our energy supply, but can also modify our genetic material. This may allow some previously hidden personal characteristics to appear.
Based on the latest publications and reviews available in this exciting field of science, yet formulated in a clearly legible style, the content of this book allows us to gain an understanding of some factors and their interconnections that can influence our well being and ultimately our health.
