Precision Nutrition in Practice: Roadmap to Realization
Precision nutrition aims to deliver personalized, actionable dietary guidance—helping individuals determine what, when, why, and how to eat to enhance their health and quality of life. To support patients with metabolic diseases, we must develop an integrative, individualized approach tailored to their unique needs.
