Fundamentals of Nutrigenomics (NGx) Workshop
Malaysia's First Nutrigenomics Principles & Applications

International Medical University (IMU)

Nutrigenomics examines each gene supported by robust scientific evidence. Highlighting overall summaries from macronutrients, micronutrients, food response, and liver detoxification that includes detailed nutritional information and food recommendations through gene variant information. PRECISE Nutrigenomics stands out from other nutrigenomics tests in the market since the launch of this workshop.

The Fundamentals of Nutrigenomics workshop covered highlights, listed here;

  • Fundamentals of Principles of NGx – Participants gained a deeper understanding of how genes and nutrients interact to influence health and disease risk through NGx.
  • Genetic Variations and Dietary Response – Attendees explored how specific SNPs affect metabolism, food sensitivities, and personalized dietary needs.
  • Applying NGx in Clinical Practice – Dietitians translated genetic insights into actionable diet and nutrition consultations for preventive healthcare and therapeutic management, moving beyond “one-size-fits-all.
  • Real-World Case Studies – This workshop reviewed several clinical examples of NGx-informed diet consultations by sharing some of their impact on patient outcomes.
  • Integrating NGx into Holistic Care – Dietitians learned to incorporate nutrigenomics strategies into routine workflows to support comprehensive patient care. 
  • Ethical Considerations – this session addressed privacy, informed consent, and the responsible use of genetic data when implementing nutrigenomics in practice. 

During this session, the highlights were interactive and engaging among participants. Some of the esteemed speakers have also involved several participants in the ongoing session by sharing their inputs and experience. Precision Diagnostics would also like to thank our esteemed speakers for making this session a milestone, being Malaysia’s First Nutrigenomics Principles & Applications for Healthcare CPD in collaboration with IMU University.

Why PRECISE Nutrigenomics Stands Out?

  1. Complete Essentials Nutrition Coverage: Analysis of gene variants across all macronutrients, micronutrients, food metabolism and tolerance, and detoxification processes, delivering the most complete picture of nutritional genomics.
  2. Clinically Actionable: Designed specifically for dietitians and healthcare professionals to integrate into Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT), ensuring every recommendation is backed by genetic data and evidence-based.
  3. Expert Support: Our team of nutrigenomics-certified professionals guides you through interpretation, counseling, and follow-up, eliminating guesswork.
  4. Dual Focus: Whether you’re a healthy individual seeking preventive guidance or a patient managing a chronic condition, PRECISE Nutrigenomics empowers you with personalized dietary strategies.
