The TP53 gene is another excellent example of how our environment shapes our genome, and how our genes respond to give us the best chance of survival. The TP53 gene variant was analyzed in 4,029 people from 67 populations located throughout eastern Asia, from 11°...

A lot of discussions regarding the MTHFR gene are centered around the fearful consequences of variants in this gene. Yet, less is spoken about how common variants are in this gene, and why they were selected. Many speculations for these variants have gone mostly...

Welcome to the first blog post of our immunity series, where we give you actionable immune system research on individual genes in the Nutrition Genome Report. Each post in this series will show you where to find the gene in your report, the genotype of interest,...

Last week, we explored research on COVID-19 and a novel pathway to help push the scientific discussion towards strategies for reducing the severity of the virus on a global scale. This week, we are going to share guidelines for basic immunity so that you have a solid...

As COVID-19 has been categorized as a pandemic in record time (without any known cure), Nutrition Genome has been dedicating resources to help advance the scientific discussion around novel approaches to combating the virus.
