Episode 14: Tailored Nutrition

   We look to the FDA and other sources to guide us on what we should eat to be healthy. But we also see that people can eat the same food, but their bodies may process that food quite differently. Certainly, we see some people can be allergic or intolerant to certain foods, but it’s also the case that what makes one individual overweight or diabetic or more prone to cardio-vascular disease may have no adverse effect on someone else.  Emerging research is revealing the variability in our metabolic processes, potentially opening the door to personalized nutrition planning.
