In this article, we analyze qualitatively the understanding of and reactions to personalized nutrition (PN) among the French public. Focus groups were conducted to identify the opinions and discourses about two applications of knowledge from nutritional (epi)genomics: a biotechnology (nutrigenetic testing) and a public awareness campaign (the "first thousand days of life" initiative). Our objective was to understand to what extent PN could lead to changes in eating practices as well as in the representations of food-health relationships within France, a country characterized by a strong commitment to commensality and a certain "nutritional relativism." Although discourses on nutritional genomics testify to a resistance to food medicalization, nutritional epigenomics appears as more performative because it introduces the question of transgenerational transmission, thus parental responsibility.
在本文中，我们对法国公众对个性化营养 (PN) 的理解和反应进行了定性分析。通过焦点小组，我们确定了对营养 ( epi ) 基因组学的两个应用知识的意见和论述：一项生物技术（营养遗传学检测）和一项公众意识活动（“生命最初的一千天”倡议）。我们的目的是了解 PN 在多大程度上可以导致法国饮食实践以及食品与健康关系的代表性发生变化，法国是一个强烈致力于共餐和某种“营养相对论”的国家。尽管关于营养基因组学的论述证明了对食物医学化的抵制，但营养表观遗传学似乎更具表现力，因为它引入了代际传递的问题，从而涉及到父母的责任。
