The nutraceutical and functional food field is rapidly growing in diverse sectors, including academic, commercial and government. This has brought a corresponding shift in research focus and in public awareness. Understanding the relevance of the scientific principles in determining the safety and effectiveness of functional foods and nutraceuticals is increasingly important. It is becoming increasingly evident that genomic research technologies will be used in the coming years and there is a need to provide resources that will facilitate this growth. This book incorporates the most recent advances in the three major sectors of the field within one volume. Genomics, proteomics, and metobolomics represent three major scientific research areas that contribute to nutraceutical and functional food research for studies of effectiveness and safety.

  • Ricardo Sanchez

    El campo de la genética y la nutrición es un campo muy amplio.
    Este es un libro que proyecta algunos de los avances más representativos en el campo de la nutrigenética, nutrigenómica, proteómica y metabolómica. La relación de lo que comemos y la activación de genes, los nutraceúticos y los alimentos funcionales.
    A través de la lectura de todo este libro vemos que existe un mundo amplio por conocer, que es más cierto cada vez más el postulado hipocrático: "que tu alimento sea tu medicina".
    Lectura recomendada para profesionales de la salud y aquellos que gustan de la genética.
