In recent years, scientists have discovered that each of us have unique "genetically determined" body chemistries. Even small variations in your genes can have a profound influence on how well your body responds to food, physical activity, environmental pressures and how you may be predisposed to a wide variety of other important health and physiologic conditions. Based on over a decade of proprietary and patented scientific processes, the health and beauty industry is rapidly accelerating into the 21st century. You can have personalized solutions specifically designed to support YOUR body with the first comprehensive system of personalized nutritional supplements based on genetic testing that measures single nucleotide polymorphisms in your DNA.

The FDA not only now recognizes the importance of
PERSONALIZED NUTRITION and MEDICINE, it has
created the Division of Personalized Nutrition and
Medicine.
Quoting from Dr. Jim Kaput's newsletter,
"In October 2006, the FDA/National Center for Toxicological Research in
Jefferson, Arkansas, created the Division of Personalized Nutrition and
Medicine. This was in my view, a quite remarkable event ˆ the U.S.
government not only acknowledging the importance of personalization but
including nutrition with medicine. In the summer of this year, I was offered and
accepted the position of Director of that new division.
The NCTR and FDA announcement written by the NCTR Director (Bill Slikker)
is included below. In addition to the information about the new position at
NCTR, the Secretary of Health and Human Services (a cabinet level position)
published a report in September of this year entitled Personalized Health Care:
Opportunities, Pathways, Resources (for free download, see
http://www.hhs.gov/myhealthcare/news/phc-report.pdf).
That report describes
the importance and proposed paths to develop personalized health care, and
includes discussions about genes and environment (including diet). In addition,
the report describes the granting opportunities and resources for research in
this area. Although the NIH and other agencies have been slowly increasing
funding for nutrient (and environment) ˆ gene interactions, the creation of a
research division for personalized nutrition and medicine and the public
discussion of personalizing health care demonstrate the recognition of the
importance of this type of research."
Dr. Jim Kaput has been a leader in Nutrigenomics at UC Davis and headed the
recent conference on Nutrigenomics. Dr. Kaput is very supportive of the
interaction of nutrients and genes to say the least.
