The evolution of personalized nutrition

From the article: "It has become increasingly evident that personalized nutrition programs based on biological, phenotypic and lifestyle information may offer the promise of improving both adherence to and efficacy of nutrition advice. Lack of adherence is a particular concern with guideline-based approaches, whereas personalization of dietary advice could potentially assist and motivate people to follow a healthier diet and lifestyle.

Effects of a personalized nutrition program on cardiometabolic health: a randomized controlled trial

From the abstract: "Large variability exists in people’s responses to foods. However, the efficacy of personalized dietary advice for health remains understudied. We compared a personalized dietary program (PDP) versus general advice (control) on cardiometabolic health using a randomized clinical trial. The PDP used food characteristics, individual postprandial glucose and triglyceride (TG) responses to foods, microbiomes and health history, to produce personalized food scores in an 18-week app-based program."

The past 10 years of cystic fibrosis treatment: the road to cure.
Claudio Castaños et al. Lancet Respir Med 2023 10 (10) 864-865

From the paper: " Cystic fibrosis is a genetic disease associated with high rates of premature death. There have been many advances in clinical care for cystic fibrosis during the past 50 years, such as the widespread implementation of newborn screening for early diagnosis, enhanced mucociliary clearance techniques, and improvements in nutrition (including adjusted pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy and a high-energy, high-fat diet). However, the life expectancy of patients with cystic fibrosis is still substantially shorter than that of the general population."
