The New Science of Nutrigenomics Nutrigenomics is... A new word added to the 2004 Webster's Dictionary. Its definition is: The study of how different foods may interact with specific genes to modify the risk of common chronic diseases such as diabetes, obesity, heart disease, stroke and certain cancers. The age of genomic testing and counseling is here Are you at risk for unhealthy aging? Do you have a family history and genetic risks factors that can lead to heart disease, arthritis, osteoporosis, alzhiemers or cancer? Genes in and of themselves do not create disease. Only when they are plunged into a harmful environment unique to the individual do they begin to cause disease. Genetic risk testing that can help you identify your individual risks is now available at our office. The idea that you can now tailor a lifestyle and nutrition program with specific foods, nutritional and plant supplements and an eating plan to fit a persons genetic makeup that will help prevent the development of chronic illness is now possible with genomic testing and counseling.
