Short description Nutrigenomics and Proteomics in Health and Disease: Food Factors and Gene Interactions aims to compile the current science based upon nutrigenomics and proteomics in food and health. Coverage includes many important nutraceuticals (food factors) and their impact on gene interaction and health. Authored by a stellar international team of multidisciplinary researchers, Nutrigenomics and Proteomics in Health and Disease acquaints food and nutrition professionals with these new fields of nutrition research and conveys the state of the science to date.
