Nutrigenomics

Nutrigenomics is a scientific field that studies how nutrition affects our genes and how our genes respond to different dietary components. It focuses on how the interactions between nutrients and our genes affect health and disease risk. Nutrigenomics has the potential to help improve public health by providing personalized nutrition advice based on an individual's genetic profile. It has the potential to reduce the risk of chronic diseases like diabetes and heart disease, as well as provide insight into how to best support an individual's health through specific dietary choices. Nutrigenomics can lead to the development of customized diets that can be tailored to an individual's unique genetic makeup and health needs. These diets can provide a more effective way of promoting health and preventing disease than a one-size-fits-all approach.

Bioinformatics has multidisciplinary uses and can be interrelated to many subjects. Computers are used to gather, store, analyze and integrate biological and genetic information which can then be applied to gene-based drug discovery and development. It's application in various fields is studied by JBD and emphasis is laid on diabetes.
