AB  - A strong association has been established between nutrition and disease risk confirmed by epidemiological data and meta-analysis. In the context of cancer, unhealthy diets have been demonstrated to increase the risk of disease. On the other hand, major dietary interventions and lifestyle changes have provided therapeutic efficacy in cancer patients. Genetic mechanisms have been associated with cancer development triggered by environmental and nutritional factors. Genetics plays an important role in the design of personalized drugs and diets. Epigenetics has also been shown to be affected by nutrition, leading to increased disease risk when unhealthy diets are consumed, while healthy nutrition can provide both prophylactic and therapeutic efficacy.
