Nutgenogenetics is the science of the influence of genetically determined differences on the assimilation of nutrients and their metabolism. The goal of nutrigenetics is to create an individual diet that will allow to optimize health status and prevent deseases. This test assesses the genetic contribution to the individual effectiveness of low-fat, low-carb diets and various types of sport exercises in order to reduce body weight. In the presence of some genetically determined conditions (Gilbert’s syndrome, hemochromatosis) - there is a need to follow a certain diet for the prevention of complications. A relative risk of insulin resistance and dyslipidemia, features of eating behavior can also be determined.
