Personalized Nutrition

Is Personalized Nutrition the Future?

Have you ever wondered how health authorities and organizations can provide general dietary advice when we are all unique individuals? I mean, we are all different, so how come this general perception that we all should eat the same? Wouldn't it make more sense to have personalized nutrition plan? This is certainly something for the longevity community to put time and effort in. Personalized nutrition involves eating foods that are tailored for the individual based on DNA testing, health metrics and health assessments. With the information from these tests, we can design personalized diets that promote improved longevity, maximize well-being, and optimize health. What is Personalized Nutrition?

Why I’m thinking of giving up alcohol

Lately I've been thinking a lot about alcohol and its effect on health. I am not a heavy drinker but as most Swedes I usually drink a couple of glasses of wine during the weekends. Sometimes the win bottle has become the company during some weekdays as well.
