Effect of Genetic Factors on Nutrition

Food preferences vary from person to person (From adults to children). Children’s food preferences play an important role in their establishment. The transitional change from children to adolescent is known by the independence but the relative influence of genetic material and food preferences in the early adolescents’ remains unknown.

The dietary patterns varies from individual to individual varies and the relative of these changed in context with the genetic relationship is yet to be proven. Genetic variability can be reflected in various forms like absorption, metabolism, and excretion.

Inborn differences in the activity of enzymes and other functional proteins determine the biochemical and metabolic factors. Genetic variations can also affect the likes and dislikes for the food in childhood, like inability to taste the artificial sweeteners etc. The contribution of food preferences alter with the environmental and genetic variations in older adolescents. There are no clear factors to determine the genetic factors on the consumption of total calories, fats or carbohydrates consumed

Genetic factors play a role in the occurrence of Obesity. About 100’s of genes have been identified which reflect the Body Mass Index (BMI) of the body. Unlike the functioning of these genes as biological mechanisms is still unknown. The relation between genetic factors and nutrition can shed the way for the genes linked to BMI  to play its role in Nutrition.

Discuss more about the Genetic relation between Nutrition and Gene factors at our 2nd International Conference on Nutrition, Food Science and Technology

Is an ALKALINE DIET the key to Longevity?

What’s the Impact of the total food you are eating? Almost all the processed foods that we are eating are acidic in nature. Is this what our body needs? A healthy pH balanced diet provides health benefits like healthy Heart, boosts immune system and stronger bones. The foods we take should contain a pH range in between 7.35-7.45. Anything less than the normal pH range are the acidic foods which are too bad for the health metabolism. Wrong pH will raise serious health issues.

How does an Alkaline Diet work:

There is wide range of eating plans than the routine acidic food list. The alkaline foods will make a healthy living, makes a better life span, and fights off infection unlike the processed foods. Much of the discussion surrounding the alkaline food diet focuses on the innumerable changes in the human diet over the last 10,000 years. Till the recent time on our evolutionary timeline, people mostly consumed fruit, vegetables, and small amounts of protein materials. With the advent of Food processing industries, we began eating more refined grains, fattier sources of meat, and processed foods that are high in sodium, saturated fat, and refined sugars — all of which cause inflammation and contribute to serious, chronic diseases. The alkaline diet discourages such foods.

On an average a human consumes a large number of foods that increase our body’s acidity which in turn keeps our body’s immune system constantly active, trying to balance our pH level. This leads to an increased chance of falling sick and getting a disease. Most of the celebs live on Alkaline diets in a bid to stay fit and avoid diseases like cancer and arthritis. Here  is a list of Ingredients for Alkaline Food that you can use to follow your diet. Olive oil, Broccoli, Avacado, Lettuce, Spinach, Kale, Watermelons, Carrots, Cucumber, Green Drinks

Alkaline Diet Benefits: 

1.      Secures Bone Density and Muscle Mass

2.      Brings down Risk for Hypertension and Stroke

3.      Brings down Chronic Pain and Inflammation

4.      Helps Vitamin Absorption and Prevents Magnesium Deficiency

5.      Enhances Immune Function and Cancer Protection

6.      Can Help You Maintain a Healthy Weight

The effect of the alkaline diet may have little to do with pH levels and more to do with the many benefits of eating whole, organic food. In real nutrition affects health and overall wellness more than any other factor. Combining solid, consistent nutrition with regular body cleansing will help your body be its best.  When we avoid foods high in omega-6 fatty acids, we reduce the levels of arachidonic acid, which causes the inflammation associated with heart disease and joint pain. The alkaline diet also encourages you to avoid processed foods and refined sugars; neither offer any nutritional benefits and both are common causes of diet-related diseases. So, let’s start with what the alkaline diet is all about, and the then we’ll look at where it falls apart.
