The Science of Nutrigenomics
Using genomic information and genetic
technologies to investigate how nutrients
interact with our genome to impact our health
and performance.

Consumer Genetic Tests
Does genetic information influence behaviour?
I have the gene,
so I eat healthily.
I have the gene,
so what can I do?
Disease Risk Genes
vs
Metabolic/Modifier Genes
 DNA-based dietary advice resulted in:
 greater understanding of recommendations
 greater interest in learning more
 greater motivation to change eating habits
 Improved dietary outcomes
 DNA-based dietary advice is superior to the
one-size-fits-all general recommendations
Why go through a HCP?
 Explains benefits and limitations of the test.
 Addresses concerns of a genetic test.
 Accountability to HCP.
 Ancillary testing options.
 Better understanding of instructions.

Sample Report
Loss of fat mass (%) after 2 years of low or high protein diet
by FTO genotype
* Significantly greater weight loss (fat mass) in response to a moderate-to-high
protein diet only in individuals with the AA genotype.
Adapted from Zhang et al. Diab. 2012;61:3005-3011.
Is DNA-based Dietary Advice Ready for
Prime Time?
• Scientific evidence is robust (studies replicated)
• Increasing consumer awareness and demand
• Information is actionable and “personalized”
• Focus on wellness/prevention, not disease treatment
• Improved compliance (evidence from RCT)
• Within the scope of practice for healthcare professionals
~1/3 of consumers will focus on personalized nutrition
“…making day-to-day decisions about what to
eat based on their particular genetic makeup.”
Genotype
“Positive health requires a knowledge of man’s primary
constitution and of the powers of various foods, both
those natural to them and those resulting from human
skill.”
