Nutrigenomics, or the field of science that studies the relationship between a person's genotype and their diet, claims that personalized nutritional recommendations can be made based on the body's genetic characteristics.

What to do if you decide to try a genotype diet, said therapist Lyudmila Frolova.

Find out your genotype

You can determine your genotype by contacting a geneticist. This will help you get recommendations on the appropriate type of nutrition.

Consider dietary restrictions

Some genotypes are contraindicated to consume gluten, while others are sensitive to, for example, dairy products, etc. Your task is to take these restrictions into account.

Be flexible

When following the recommendations, listen to yourself. Monitor your body's reaction to different products and make adjustments if necessary.
