Can genes create the perfect diet for you?
Source:
Diet on genotype can be a way out for many, but it still has a lot of questions
Don't know what to do to lose weight? DNA tests promise to help you with this. They will be able to develop the most individual diet, because for this they will use the most "personal" from you: your genes. The idea is that the genes of each person are unique, so to achieve optimal weight and level of health, everyone must have their own individual set of nutritional requirements. And in recent years, dieting using DNA tests has become more popular, especially in the United States, where obesity is more acute than ever in 2020.
Proponents of such diets argue that the analysis provided by DNA tests offers a new perspective on human nutrition.
We can pick up shoes for each person and choose clothes based on human parameters, and now we offer to do the same with nutrition, says Sherri Chang, CEO of GenoPalate,a company producing DNA testing kits.
The company says it allows you to "discover the most useful products based on your genes."
Diet by genotype
Scientists generally agree that each person's genes contain a small number of variations that affect how their body absorbs nutrients such as carbohydrates, fats and minerals. Critics believe that the importance of genes is exaggerated, and nutrition has more effect on blood pressure, and other parameters.
Now anyone can buy a DNA test and get a list of the best foods for themselves according to their genetic makeup. Some companies also offer customized fitness, skin care and prescription recommendations. Such companies are also in Russia, the average cost of such a test varies from 7 to 12 thousand rubles.
Diets by genotype are becoming more popular
How does it work? For example, people with one type of APOC3gene that affects the processing of triglycerides (fat in the blood) can be advised to follow a low-fat diet. One variation of this gene is associated with elevated cholesterol levels. On the other hand, each person should limit the consumption of saturated fats, regardless of whether the genes "tell" him about it or not.
Diet reviews for genetic analysis
Human genome studies have not shownthat genes can 100% determine the right diet. For example, a study conducted at King's College London analyzed the food intake of 110 pairs of identical twins. It found that participants reacted differently to food depending on its composition, meal time, despite the same genotype.
The effect of genes on the correct diet has not yet been proven
Many companies that deal with nutrigenometry post research on their websites to support their claims. Frequently cited studies usually confirm a link between certain gene variants and how they may influence a person's response to a low-fat diet or a high-protein diet. But it is unclear to what extent genetic differences affect the SAMU diet. Another problem is that there are very few clinical trials that actually measure the effectiveness of DNA-based diets compared to other approaches.
But for many people, most of the "personalized" recommendations from companies that offer genotype diets are just things we hear over and over again: limit carbohydrates, increase fiber, and reduce sodium intake. Often, DNA diet plans are targeted at people interested in weight loss and body mass index. But of course, weight loss doesn't always mean better health.
Most of the advice of these diets comes down to the fact that you need to eat properly. But that's what we know.
It's just that people who are overweight find it hard to resist the temptation of individual diet advice. People also equated "health" and "well-being" with "weight loss."
But the connection between this is very small.
Each person has their own nutritional requirements from the body to maintain health, as well as a unique set of genes. Many diets will suit you or will keep you alive. But that doesn't mean they'll all be good in the long run. The ideal diet should not only keep you alive, but also help you develop. It should give the maximum possible nutrient intake,to make your body as healthy as possible.

4 years ago, I was freshly clean from heroin, and had just gotten out of jail, a state away from everything and everyone is ever known, only had the clothes on my back, an expired ID in an otherwise empty wallet, and was looking at a credit score around 520. Married, 2 years old, middle management at a fortune 50 Corp. Thanks to PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST who came as an angel for me and fixed my credit score within 5 days, negative items, credit card debt and hard inquiries has been removed and resolved and I’m happy now because it really helped my FICO score got increase to 819. I’m going to apply for an AMEX. It’s something I’ve wanted to get for years, a big goal I’ve been working towards, (that and buying a house). And I finally am comfortable enough with my score to pull the trigger on it. Thanks to PINNACLE CREDIT SPECIALIST I’m really proud of them right now.

Hi all! If you seek a reliable source for your credit issues, I think it's best you contact Raylink Cyber Services. My colleague mentioned about their services and how they clean up DUI report and Chexsystem. I wondered if they could actually fix my credit profile. I had a very low score of 455, some couple of bank charges and several collections. I really need this service but I barely trust the source due to some several cyber rip-off attempts on me. To my surprise, they only asked for few information about me and a payment that's worth the value. After 15days my report was sound with positive trade lines posted on it including a revolving credit card and a 790 credit score. I sincerely recommend their services to you if you require a credit fix. Feel free to contact them on RAYLINKCYBERSERVICES@GMAIL.COM and be rest assured of an excellent result.

I am so happy to have consulted METRONET CREDIT SOLUTION for my credit repairs. I discovered that I had 5 negative items on my credit most especially IRS, delayed payments and loans and over 7 hard inquiries from every bureaus and it hindered me from moving forward in my business.

I was asked for funds to get started with the job and I gave them the benefit of doubt and made some commitments. My fico score was moved from 609 to an excellent score (799) and all the negatives were deleted from my report. Right now I have a clean profile with wonderful trade lines.

HACK VANISH Credit specialist did it for me. Before the coronavirus pandemic, I had criminal Judgments, few evictions, and missed / late payment which negatively impacted my credit score down to 487 and left me in difficult financial situation, as a single mum of 3, I needed a loan to keep the family running after I lost my husband as a result of COVID-19, all hope were lost, until Mr. Kannan and Olivia reassured and referred me to HACK VANISH, a credit genius who was very helpful in fixing my report after I reached out to him via: Email: hackvanish (At) gmail (Dot) com and text/call +1(650) 499 5548, I carefully followed his protocols, throughout the process which lasted for about 6 days, I felt so involved because he maintained an open line of communication till I got my score back to 796, currently my loan application has been approved, I can now give my kids better life. If you need to hire a hacker, HACK VANISH is highly recommended.

I strongly recommend METR0NET Credit Solution for any kind of credit repair. They helped us out so much after already paying a self-acclaimed credit expert who basically just took our money and did nothing for a year, we found METRONET on the internet and they immediately showed results and even guided us on what our best solution for our trade in for a new vehicle would be with a lower approximate % and not to mention how well they inform you and explain to you everything that's going on with your credit. Thank you METRONET for all your help. Text them via (205) 518 3032 / metronetcreditsolution@gmail.com.

After going through a car repossession and foreclosure in 2018, my credit score dropped to Equifax: 512, TransUnion: 504. All attempts to get my credit back to a good rating didn't yield positive results. Just last month while I was browsing a credit blog, I came across a comment by Aaron on how he got his credit fixed by 760PLUS CREDIT SCORE. Immediately, I reached out to 760plus, asked if he could help fix my credit score too. He responded positively and I had to subscribe to his services. On checking my credit report after 9days, my score had been skyrocketed to Equifax: 781, TransUnion: 772. I also noticed that the car repossession, foreclosure, hard inquiries, late payments on my credit report has been removed. What an awesome service! Here's his contact info if you need his services; Email: 760pluscreditscore at gmail dot com or 1 (304) 774 5902
