Abstract
Nutrigenomics that is the study of interaction between dietary components and the
genome, and the regulating changes in proteins and other metabolism. The development of
nutrigenomic studies has brought about a number of new research tools. Bioinformatics are
now making their ways to solve the intervening puzzle between nutrient and genes.
Numerous dietary components can alter genetic events, and thereby influence health. In
addition to the essential nutrients, such as carbohydrates, amino acids, fatty acids, calcium,
zinc, selenium, and vitamin A, C and E, there is a variety of nonessential bioactive
components that seem to significantly influence health.
