Food intolerance

Food intolerance arises when the body has difficulty digesting certain foods, resulting in symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, or fatigue. These intolerances can significantly impact overall well-being and may be either congenital or acquired later in life. Genetic predispositions are a key factor in food intolerances, as variations in specific genes can influence how the body metabolizes nutrients such as sugars, proteins, and amino acids.

Identifying the genetic factors underlying food intolerances is crucial for improving individual health outcomes. By understanding these genetic mechanisms, individuals can tailor their diets to avoid problematic foods, leading to improved digestion, enhanced energy levels, and a better overall quality of life.
