<p><strong>Nutrigenomics</strong> is the study of molecular relationships between <font color="#002bb8">nutrition</font> and the response of <font color="#002bb8">genes</font>, with the aim of extrapolating how such subtle changes can affect <font color="#002bb8">human health</font>.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-0"><font color="#002bb8"><span>[</span>1<span>]</span></font></sup> Nutrigenomics focuses on the effect of nutrients on the <font color="#5a3696">genome</font>, <font color="#002bb8">proteome</font>, and <font color="#002bb8">metabolome</font>. By determining the mechanism of the effects of <font color="#002bb8">nutrients</font> or the effects of a nutritional regime, Nutrigenomics tries to define the <font color="#002bb8">relationship</font> between these specific nutrients and specific nutrient regimes (diets) on human health. Nutrigenomics has been associated with the idea of personalized nutrition based on genotype. While there is hope that nutrigenomics will ultimately enable such personalised dietary advice, it is a science still in its infancy and its contribution to <font color="#002bb8">public health</font> over the next decade is thought to be minor.<sup class="reference" id="cite_ref-muller_1-0"><font color="#002bb8"><span>[</span>2<span>]</span></font></sup></p>
