We all have a cousin, a friend or a brother-in-law who claims to have the definitive solution for you to lose those extra kilos with the guarantee that it has worked for him or her.
But really, does one type of diet work for everyone? Do we respond the same to the different changes we can make in our diet? As you may have already guessed, the answer is no. Each person is a world, and as proof of this, personalized nutrition is more on the rise than ever
And what is personalized nutrition?
Unlike public health, Personalized nutrition individualizes the nutritional strategy to follow according to the specific needs of each person and specific case. That is, it seeks to personalize the diet based on the objective to be achieved, the preferences and eating habits of the individual, their profession and lifestyle, possible pathological conditions, etc.
For example, a dietary plan will vary between a person who does not like vegetables, does not exercise regularly and has two children in their care, and another who works at night, suffers from type 2 diabetes and likes to cook.
What factors does personalized nutrition take into account?
Beyond the objective and the specific nutritional needs of each individual, personalized nutrition takes into account other factors that shape our daily lives and therefore influence our ability to adhere to a diet. Some examples are:
