Nutritional Deficiencies and Genetics: Optimizing Precision Health Outcomes with N-of-1
Ashley Madsen, PA-C
Comite Center for Precision Medicine, New York, NY
Nutrigenetics is a nascent and exciting field of study, focusing on the relationship between genetic variation and nutrient absorption, utilization, and daily requirements in the individual. With Precision Medicine, clinicians can utilize this N-of-1 data to further optimize each patients metabolism and nutrient balance through medications, supplements, and dietary recommendations. This presentation introduces the core principles of nutrigenetics before exploring notable gene-nutrient relationships in the literature. After laying the groundwork, we illustrate the many ways we have integrated nutrigenetics into our clinical practice and consider advanced applications for the future. Audience members will learn the importance of nutrigenetics as a diagnostic tool in Precision Medicine to improve health outcomes via nutrient status.
