چکیده
“Omics” based sciences have been recently acquiring significant attraction by the scientific community. Diet and dietary constituents have shown an impact on human health and in the areas such as the nutrition, nutrient-gene interaction, nutritional biomarkers and some nonessential nutrients and bioactive food components that can alter genetic and epigenetic events in the human body. The nutrients are able to interact and modulate the physiological system of the body. Evaluating and assessing the significance of the interrelationships among bioactive food components with the physiological system of the body in the context of Omics (transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics) will be of great help in understanding the disease pattern and its prevention. This review attempts at understanding the Omics driven changes happening in the field of nutrition with focus on disease prevention and better health for all.
