Abstract:
Precision medicine emphasizes formulating reasonable diagnosis, treatment and prevention strategies according to patients′ different genotypes, metabolic characteristics, lifestyle and environment. It is the frontier and development direction of modern medicine. As an important branch of precision medicine, precision nutrition has attracted extensive attention. On the one hand, metabolomics and nutriomics researches based on gene level have become hot spots in this field, but it will take some time to apply it to clinical practice; On the other hand, based on the concept of "precision", the practice of individualized nutrition diagnosis and treatment centered on phenotypic characteristics is gradually carried out in various clinical medical fields, reflecting good application value. With the research progress, precision nutrition will be better combined with clinical nutrition to benefit patients.
