Despite the recognition that dietary responses vary among individuals, nutritional advice is often given at a population level using general guidelines, following a "one-size-fits-all" approach.
Recent research, such as the PERSON study, has demonstrated that tailoring dietary macronutrient composition to an individual's tissue-specific insulin-resistant phenotype can significantly improve insulin sensitivity and cardiometabolic health in overweight individuals. These findings support the potential benefits of precision nutrition based on distinct subgroups rather than general dietary guidelines.
The composition of gut microbiota is a significant determina…
