📣NEWS: Imperial College London reports that a UK trial with DNANUDGE has found that a DNA-tailored diet could help manage blood glucose and reduce risk of progressing to type 2 diabetes in high-risk individuals. The pilot study found that following personalised dietary advice informed by genetic information - in combination with face-to-face dietary coaching from a healthcare professional - was more effective at reducing blood glucose levels than standard dietary coaching based on the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines, which are the current standard of care in the UK. The results have been published in Nature Scientific Reports. Joint senior author Professor Nick Oliver, a clinical consultant in diabetes and endocrinology from Imperial College London’s Department of Metabolism, Digestion and Reproduction: “Prior to progression to type 2 diabetes, people and their healthcare professionals have an opportunity to reduce their risk. The NICE guidance for lifestyle change – for example, the inclusion of fruits, vegetables, healthy fats and whole grains – are evidence based and effective for a population, but our findings suggest that personalisation by genetically tailoring dietary advice to an individual might have an even greater effect.” Joint senior author Regius Professor Chris Toumazou, from Imperial College London’s Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and DnaNudge: “Genetic profiles of chronic conditions, such as type 2 diabetes, obesity, hypertension, and blood cholesterol can tell us which foods might be better or worse at reducing the risk of these conditions, allowing us to specifically tailor advice around their dietary intake of fats, carbohydrates, and other macronutrients. Our pilot study, where we apply this to pre-diabetes, shows promising results, suggesting that genetically-informed diets could be an effective intervention compared to, or combined with, standard NICE-guided advice.” Joint first author Dr Dr Maria Karvela, PhD, from Imperial College London’s Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering and DnaNudge: “Though clinical research into personalised nutrition and type 2 diabetes is still developing, our study adds to evidence that supports the value of such personalised approaches. If validated, our intervention could provide a cost-effective, widely distributable, and easily scalable prevention tool for improving glucose regulation in high-risk individuals.” Full story here: https://lnkd.in/erk_D6H5 #DnaNudge #Imperial #diabetes #genetics #nutrition #T2DM

Interesting piece by Anne Shooter In today’s The Times (£). At this week’s Financial Times Future of Retail Summit, Tesco CEO Ken Murphy noted that he could imagine using a combination of Clubcard data and AI technology to “nudge” people to make swaps to healthier products over the long term, for example switching to lower salt options to protect heart health. As the developer of the world’s first retail services to use consumers' own DNA plus lifestyle factors to nudge people towards healthier choices while shopping, it’s great to see retail industry discussion and momentum building around the transformative potential of smart shopping. https://lnkd.in/gj_fVHQt #nutrition #nudgetheory #nudgeomics #genetics #retail #retailtech
