The notion of educating the public through generic healthy eating messages has pervaded dietary health promotion efforts over the years and continues to do so through various media, despite little evidence for any enduring impact upon eating behaviour. There is growing evidence, however, that tailored interventions such as those that could be delivered online can be effective in bringing about healthy dietary behaviour change. The present paper brings together evidence from qualitative and quantitative studies that have considered the public perspective of genomics, nutrigenomics and personalised nutrition, including those conducted as part of the EU-funded Food4Me project. Such studies have consistently indicated that although the public hold positive views about nutrigenomics and personalised nutrition, they have reservations about the service providers' ability to ensure the secure handling of health data. Technological innovation has driven the concept of personalised nutrition forward and now a further technological leap is required to ensure the privacy of online service delivery systems and to protect data gathered in the process of designing personalised nutrition therapies.
多年来,通过一般性的健康饮食信息来教育公众的理念一直贯穿于饮食健康促进工作中,并通过各种媒体持续存在,尽管几乎没有证据表明这种方法对饮食行为有任何持久的影响。然而,越来越多的证据表明,定制干预措施,如可以在线提供的干预措施,可能在带来健康饮食行为改变方面是有效的。本文汇集了来自定性和定量研究的证据,这些研究考虑了公众对基因组学、营养基因组学和个性化营养的看法,包括作为欧盟资助的 Food4Me 项目的一部分进行的研究。这些研究一致表明,尽管公众对营养基因组学和个性化营养持积极态度,但他们对服务提供商确保安全处理健康数据的能力持保留意见。技术创新推动了个性化营养的发展,现在需要进一步的技术飞跃来确保在线服务交付系统的隐私,并保护在设计个性化营养疗法过程中收集的数据。
