What Are the Challenges in Integrating Nutrigenomics with Toxicology?
Despite its potential, integrating nutrigenomics with toxicology faces several challenges. The complexity of gene-nutrient interactions and the influence of environmental factors make it difficult to establish clear cause-and-effect relationships. Additionally, the cost and accessibility of genetic testing pose barriers to widespread application. Ethical considerations, such as genetic privacy and potential discrimination, also need to be addressed. Nevertheless, advances in genomic technologies and data analysis continue to drive progress in this field.
