23. “ Inflammation Gene-Nutrition the evil twin of oxidation. Where you find one, you find the other." -- neuroscientist James Joseph of Tufts University, 2006. That include not only such obvious inflammatory conditions as asthma and rheumatoid arthritis, but also atherosclerosis, Alzheimer's disease, colon cancer and diabetes.

37. Fresh Fruits Fresh raw fruits are loaded with enzymes and when we eat our foods raw 30% of the digestion is done for us by the food itself. When we cook our food over 110 degrees F, we destroy the living enzymes and our body must use its own enzymes for digestion robbing us of energy. Gene-Nutrition

Notas do Editor
This figure shows many studies on T2D + diet, interrelationship among gene, gene product, dietary food component and diseases its function remains largely unknown. the limitations, difficulties and urgent need to be explored further to integrate environment into omics analysis are reviewed and discussed Well-designed and highly-powered studies are needed to unravel the complexity of gene-nutrient interactions underlying T2DM A lot of work need to be done and explored to understand interrelationship among gene, gene product, dietary food component and diseases. Those information will provides a new vision and knowledge on disease predisposition and nutritional requirements , such a goal is still far off and much more research is required before we can reliably include genetic factors in the risk – benefit assessment of nutrients and diets.
