Abstract
Nutrigenomics is a science which deals with role of nutrient on gene expression. It
analyzes how nutrients affect genes (influence on gene expression and function) and how
genes affect diet (how an individual responds to nutrients). The individual genotypic
variations can alter nutrient metabolism. Nutrigenomics has various benefits and applications
as biomarkers, developing strategies for prevention of diseases, designing functional foods,
identification of pathways and candidate genes, improving production and reproduction and
make a pathway towards personalized nutrition. Nutrigenomics approaches promise to set
new standards for nutritional research and will revolutionize the views of nutrient
requirements and interactions.
