Epigenetics is a relatively new area for understanding many of the disease processes involved with mediated changes in gene expression in response to dietary and other lifestyle exposures. Presenting up-to-date research on the relationship between nutrition and the cutting-edge field of epigenetics, this book takes a close look at the impact of epigenetics on aging, embryonic growth, and the development of cancer. With the aid of numerous color illustrations and photographs, it effectively describes how nutrients modulate physiologic and pathologic processes through the modulation of...

The complete mapping of the human genome, along with the development of sophisticated molecular technologies, has accelerated research on the relationship between nutrients and genes. This has led to compelling evidence garnered from epidemiological and experimental observations supporting the idea that the interaction between nutrients and genes is one of the most important mechanisms influencing carcinogenesis.
Nutrient-Gene Interactions in Cancer brings together leading authorities in the field who provide an overview and look specifically at the mechanisms known to underlie each...
