Dietary lipids have a major role in nutrition, not only for their fuel value, but also as essential and bioactive nutrients. This narrative review aims to describe the current evidence on nutrigenomic effects of dietary lipids. Firstly, different chemical biological properties fatty acids contained both plant- animal-based food are illustrated. A description lipid bioavailability, bioaccessibil...

In recent years, nutrition research has moved from classical epidemiology and physiology to molecular biology and genetics. Following this trend, Nutrigenomics has emerged as a novel and multidisciplinary research field in nutritional science that aims to elucidate how diet can influence human health. It is already well known that bioactive food compounds can interact with genes affecting trans...

Now that we have entered the postgenomic era, the association between the potential protective role of nutrients and periodontal diseases is well established. It is likely to know that interactions between the genotype and diet are important in determining periodontal disease risk. A change in dietary pattern represents a promising approach in reducing the risk of aging by modulating gene expre...
