This is an 1-hour audiovisual course presented by Lawrence Bagnell, DC
- Explain the basic principles of nutrigenomics, focusing on the interaction between nutrition, genetics, and health outcomes, with an emphasis on conditions like headaches.
- Analyze how single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and other genetic variations impact nutrient metabolism and their potential role in triggering headaches, such as those linked to impaired methylation.
- Examine the mechanisms by which a lack of essential nutrients (e.g., magnesium, B vitamins) contributes to headaches, and how nutrigenomics can inform targeted nutritional interventions.
- Design tailored dietary strategies based on genetic testing results, addressing deficiencies or imbalances that may exacerbate headache conditions.
- Assess the benefits and limitations of using nutrigenomic testing to guide clinical decision-making for headache management and prevention, highlighting the importance of personalized nutrition in improving patient outcomes.
