Nutritional Genomics: The Impact of Dietary Regulation of Gene Function on Human Disease

Written as a platform for researchers, scientists, educators, and policy makers to discuss the current status of nutritional genomic research, this book contains the latest scientific findings on the mechanisms underlying diet-genome interactions. With contributions from renowned experts, it covers information on transforming dietary signals into disease-preventing changes in gene expression, gene-linked networks of chronic disease and cancer, and the role of food science and nutrition to meet individual genomic health needs. The book identifies future directions for research and challenges and opportunities for improving global health and wellness by preventing, delaying, or mitigating chronic diseases with diet.
