Comprehensive Nutritional Assessment
with Metabolomics and Proteomics

Metabolomics and proteomics applications in nutrition allow for an understanding of the complex interplay between diet, metabolism and human health, paving the way for tailored nutritional interventions and precision wellness strategies. By capturing the metabolic fingerprints associated with diet and nutrient utilization, gain a comprehensive assessment of an individual’s nutritional status. With a global view of the proteome, identify specific protein biomarkers associated with dietary habits and nutritional status.

Comprehensive Nutritional Assessment with Metabolomics and Proteomics

Identify Dietary Biomarkers
Identify Dietary
Biomarkers
Detect specific metabolites and proteins that reflect consumption of certain foods or dietary components. These biomarkers are indicators of dietary intake and allow for the assessment of dietary patterns.
Metabolic Pathway Analysis
Metabolic
Pathway Analysis
By examining changes in metabolite levels, metabolomics provides insights into the metabolic pathways influenced by dietary factors. Elucidate how specific nutrients or dietary components affect metabolic processes.
Understand Gut Health
Understand
Gut Health
Metabolomics and proteomics shed light on the gut microbiome’s response to diet. Gain insights into digestive health, metabolism and immune function
Monitor Dietary Interventions
Monitor Dietary
Interventions
Assess changes in the metabolic profile of an individual, enabling the evaluation of intervention effectiveness, identification of metabolic adaptations and tracking of compliance with dietary recommendations.
Personalized Nutrition Strategies
Personalized
Nutrition Strategies
By analyzing a patient’s metabolic or protein profile, nutritionists and healthcare providers can design tailored dietary plans, optimize nutrient intake and address specific metabolic imbalances to promote wellness and prevent nutrition-related disorders
Food Quality and Safety
Food Quality
and Safety
Proteomics is a powerful tool used for food quality and safety by detecting contaminants, verifying ingredient authenticity and assessing nutritional content to protect consumer health.

Molecular Nutrition

An example of a molecular nutrition metabolomics study – performed to characterize substrate utilization during fasting in plasma. In this study, respiratory exchange ratios are used as a clinical index to assess metabolic pathways and plasma metabolites associated with substrate utilization in healthy, fasted adults. 1389 metabolites were identified that enriched within 13 metabolic pathways involved in carbohydrate, amino acid and lipid metabolism.

Next-Generation Metabolomics can be applied towards nutritional science to study the effects of nutrients and food components and how these affect whole body physiology and health status at a molecular and cellular level at the individual level or in a population.
