Abstract:With the development and application of genomics and bioinformatics, nutrigenomics emerges and becomes a hotspot in nutrition research. Nutrigenomics mainly researches on the effects of nutrients and phytochemicals on the transcription and translation of human genes and their metabolism mechanisms, applying high-throughput genomics technology in nutrition research, especially the molecular mechanism and requirement of nutrients, the personal recipe and animal product, etc. In this article, the current researches and the trends of the applications of nutrigenomics were discussed.
