Fundamentals of nutrigenetics and nutrigenomics.
Claude Bouchard,Jose M. Ordovas +1 more
TL;DR: This volume of Progress in Molecular Biology and Translational Science is devoted to the exciting and promising field of nutrigenetics and Nutrigenomics, with emphasis on the concept of personalized nutrition and its likely role in public health and disease prevention, as well as in therapeutics.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contributions of Cardiorespiratory Fitness and Visceral Adiposity to Six-Year Changes in Cardiometabolic Risk Markers in Apparently Healthy Men and Women
Caroline Rhéaume,Benoit J. Arsenault,Marie-Pierre Dumas,Louis Pérusse,Angelo Tremblay,Claude Bouchard,Paul Poirier,Jean-Pierre Després +7 more
TL;DR: Changes in both VAT and CRF levels observed over 6 yr are associated with changes in parameters of the lipoprotein-lipid profile, glucose-insulin homeostasis, and inflammatory markers, indicating that maintaining a low level of VAT and a high level of CRF are important targets for maintenance of cardiometabolic health.
Journal ArticleDOI
Familial correlations in the Quebec family study: cross-trait familial resemblance for body fat with plasma glucose and insulin
TL;DR: The lack of sibling correlations does not suggest a simple familial hypothesis, and a more complex genetic effect underlying the common covariation between total body fat with insulin and IGR cannot be ruled out.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adiposity, adipose tissue distribution and mortality rates in the Canada Fitness Survey follow-up study.
TL;DR: The hypothesis thatOverall level of adiposity is an important predictor of all-cause mortality, more so than the relative distribution of subcutaneous body fat, once overall level of body fatness has been accounted for is supported.
