Nutrigenetics, Nutrigenomics and Inflammatory Bowel Diseases
Few nutrigenomics studies have yet been applied to IBD, although the authors has pointed to their potential significance in this field. However, knowledge of diets that are generally anti-inflammatory, based on the IBD dietary surveys, have been used in developing a modified Mediterranean diet that the author believes could be of benefit in reducing inflammation in such patients. This has been tested in a control population, using a nutrigenomics approach (Box 1).
