How can genetic data be integrated into dietetic practice? In this article, we explain what nutrigenomics is<\/strong> and show how nucleotides<\/strong> make it possible to define a solid nutrigenetic profile. Based on that foundation, we outline an approach to translating genetic information into personalised recommendations aligned with the principles of precision nutrition.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\n
Nutrigenomics: what it is<\/h2>\n
Nutrigenomics<\/strong> studies how nutrients and bioactive compounds modulate gene expression<\/strong> and metabolic pathways. Its aim is to translate this diet-gene interaction into personalised and measurable dietary recommendations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
\n
Differences between nutrigenomics and nutrigenetics<\/h3>\n
\n
Nutrigenomics:<\/strong> how diet influences gene expression and biological pathways.<\/li>\n
Nutrigenetics:<\/strong> how genetic variants<\/strong> (e.g., SNP nucleotide<\/strong>) condition the individual response to nutrients.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Both disciplines are complementary: nutrigenetics identifies susceptibility<\/strong> (which variants a person has), and nutrigenomics helps modulate<\/strong> the response through dietary and lifestyle changes.<\/p>\n
Both are complementary<\/strong>: nutrigenetics profiles susceptibility, and nutrigenomics proposes dietary (and lifestyle) modulations to optimise the response. Recent studies insist on considering polygenicity, effect size and gene-diet-environment interactions.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n
\n
Nutrigenomics test<\/h3>\n
A rigorous approach usually includes:<\/p>\n
\n
SNP nucleotide panel<\/strong> supported by scientific evidence (folate\/B12 methylation, vitamin D metabolism, lipids, caffeine\/lactose, inflammation, antioxidants, detoxification).<\/li>\n
Phenotypic matrix<\/strong>: analytical parameters, habits and objective (weight, performance, cardiometabolic risk).<\/li>\n
Evidence-based interpretation<\/strong>: effect size, quality\/replication of studies, possible interaction with microbiota and lifestyle<\/strong>, and degree of recommendation<\/strong>. Reviews highlight that, despite the volume of associations, clinical translation<\/strong> requires caution, independent validation and monitoring of clinical endpoints<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\n
SNP nucleotide: How to establish a nutrigenetic profile<\/h2>\n
\n
Panel selection<\/strong>: prioritise SNPs with clinical utility<\/strong> and replicated evidence in the target of interest (e.g., lipids, blood pressure, vitamin metabolism).<\/li>\n
Sampling and genotyping<\/strong>: saliva\/blood, quality control and coverage; document technical limitations.<\/li>\n
Multi-source integration<\/strong>: combine genotype with biomarkers<\/strong> (e.g., 25(OH)D, lipid profile), dietary records and lifestyle factors; where appropriate, consider microbiota\/metabolomics<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
Practical translation<\/strong>: adjust macros (quality of fats and carbohydrates), micronutrients<\/strong> (active forms and doses), bioactives (e.g., polyphenols, caffeine according to metabolism) and behaviours<\/strong> (sleep, activity) that modulate pathways affected by SNPs.<\/li>\n
Follow-up and reassessment<\/strong>: define indicators (biomarkers and clinical outcomes) and review the plan in the event of changes in objective or new evidence.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/section>\n
\n
Importance in precision nutrition<\/h2>\n
Precision nutrition<\/strong> seeks to define personalised dietary strategies<\/strong> to correct metabolic imbalances and improve quality of life<\/strong>, integrating knowledge of the intestinal microbiome<\/strong>, the functioning of the microbiota<\/strong> and the genetic information<\/strong> of each person. This approach makes it possible to understand with greater granularity how diet impacts the body and to design guidelines tailored to the individual, rather than average recommendations.<\/p>\n
The integration of nutrigenomics and SNPs<\/strong> makes it possible to move from general recommendations to targeted and measurable interventions<\/strong><\/a>. These are some of the benefits:<\/p>\n
\n
Greater clinical response<\/strong>: prioritisation of targets (methylation, inflammation, lipids) with fine-tuned adjustments.<\/li>\n
Personalised prevention<\/strong>: early detection of susceptibilities and protective dietary modifications.<\/li>\n
Clear risk communication<\/strong>: reports with understandable language, limits and realistic expectations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
In practice, precision nutrition integrates multiple dimensions<\/strong> of the individual<\/strong> (lifestyle, genetics, microbiota, metabolic response) to select targets and measure outcomes objectively, which strengthens clinical translation<\/strong> and adherence to the guideline.<\/p>\n
