Benefits of Nutrigenomics:

• Personalised Nutrition: Imagine a diet plan designed specifically for YOU! Nutrigenomics can identify your unique nutritional needs based on your genes. This can help you optimize your nutrient intake, improve your metabolism, and even reduce your risk of chronic diseases.
• Disease Prevention and Management: Certain genes might put you at a higher risk for conditions like type 2 diabetes. But with nutrigenomics, we can identify dietary changes that can help mitigate these risks.

• Unlocking Nutrient Potential: We all absorb nutrients differently. Nutrigenomics can highlight areas where your body might struggle with absorption, allowing for targeted interventions to ensure you're getting the most out of your food.
• Tailored Therapy: Combining nutrigenomics with your health history, lifestyle, and dietary habits allows for a more comprehensive approach to health. This can involve personalised recommendations for supplements, functional foods, and lifestyle modifications.

How Does it Work?

As a nutritional therapist, I use a multi-step approach to create a personalized plan based on nutrigenomics:

• Genetic Testing: We start by unlocking your genetic code through a simple saliva test. This helps identify variations related to nutrient metabolism, food sensitivities, and other factors.
• Health and Dietary Assessment: Next, we take a deep dive into your health history, medications, allergies, and current dietary habits. This paints a complete picture of your current health and needs.
• Decoding Your DNA: With all the information gathered, we analyze how your genes might be influencing your nutritional needs, metabolism, and health risks.

• Your Personalised Diet Plan: Based on your unique data, I create a custom diet plan tailored to your goals and genetic makeup. This might include specific foods to focus on or avoid, portion sizes, and even recommendations for supplements.
• Education and Support: I'll guide you through your personalised plan, explaining the science behind it and providing tips for successful implementation.
• Monitoring and Adjustments: Regular follow-ups allow us to monitor your progress and fine-tune the plan as needed.

The Power of a Personalised Approach

Nutrigenomics isn't a magic bullet, but it's a powerful tool that empowers you to take charge of your health. By working with a healthcare professional, you can leverage your unique genetic makeup to create a personalised plan for optimal health and disease prevention.
