What is Personalised Nutrition • It has become apparent that consumers respond differently to diet, depending on their genetic makeup, lifestyle and environment, the related knowledge and understanding remain fragmented. • The scientific level: in model studies, gene, protein and metabolite profiles of individuals in different health and nutritional conditions are analyzed. Genotype and Phenotype data are included in a personal profile and advice. • Research from Food 4 me (EU-funded project) about Nutrigenomics concludes that besides phenotype & genotype, also sociotype, environment, culture, personality, food intake and even more topics needs to be involved in the advise that is given In practice: • We take Lifestyle and Life situations (diseases, etc) into consideration in the advice we give. The more (measured) data we have, the better the advise WHO : “The ability to adapt and to self manage In the face of social, physical and emotional challenge” 4
