ABSTRACT

In its evolution, humans were adapting to the available food sources of the world region where they lived and therefore their DNA changed to better assimilate these nutrients. With the globalization of science and modern technology, food availability has changed rapidly and therefore eating habits change; this affects our genes and have the enough time to adapt to these changes, involving in the expression of metabolic routes transformation of these new foods, to which nutrigenomics has some answers. Applied Nutrigenomics has a potential beneficial effect on public health systems, by optimizing personalized service to the population. The new dietitians must be trained to meet the needs of the community knowing, assimilating and increasingly using these new technologies.
