What is Nutrigenomics?
A promise of “personalized health”, where an individual is prescribed a comprehensive diet plan based on the scientific knowledge of his or her genes. This understanding of their genes helps to create a health plan based on the nutritional requirement and the nutritional status of the body.
These unique, customised plans can be used to prevent or cure chronic disease like obesity, diabetes, blood pressure, heart problems etc.

Nutrigenomics explained by Dr. Ruchi Goyal
Why Nutrigenomics?
Nutrigenomics act as your very own ‘eyes inside the body.’
It takes into consideration the genes you were born with, the food you eat, its metabolism and your health.
It provides insights about the workout and fitness regime that would work for your body.
There is no hit or trial method involved in arriving at your optimum diet plan. Nutrigenomics helps determine what food items and way of life is the best, for you.
Does not follow the age-old system where foods are considered good or bad for everyone. It helps determine how different foods may interact with your body to increase or decrease the risk of common diseases such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and stroke and also some lifestyle diseases like hair fall and some skin conditions.
Every person is unique and reacts differently to the same diet and lifestyle habits.
