Abstract
Obesity and overweight is an emerging health problem of growing importance, and much promise for the prevention and treatment of this disease is connected with nutrigenomics. Nutrigenomics corresponds to the use of biochemistry, physiology, bromatology, genomics, proteomics, metabolomics and epigenomics to seek and explain the existing reciprocal interactions between genes and nutrients at a molecular level. It is directed toward determining the effect of nutrients on the expression of genes and identifying the role of genetic variation and individual dietary response. This review describes the results of the current research into the significance of nutrigenomics in obesity.
