Nutrition and Epigenetics

2013-10-02

Abstract excerpt

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), diabetes, obesity and cancer are polygenic in nature and their prevalences and mortality vary depending upon genetic susceptibility and the presence of phenotype risk factors. The heritability of variant phenotypes may depend on the intake of proinflammatory or anti-inflammatory nutrients, for their expression as phenotypes or their suppression. Genes are important for the determina...
