As fitness professional I am always looking for new researches in the field of training, exercises, food, lifestyle and psychology. What most of us doesn’t know is that most researches that we see today were done two to three years ago. But that doesn’t make them obsolete, but it makes them trustworthy. There is a very eye opened results about dieting according to a big medical research done by doctors, specialists and biologists from Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel and from Tel Aviv University, Israel. This research was first published in 19 November 2015. They measure the glucose levels van 800 people in response of 46,898 meals. What they now can affirm: “that a prescription diet, no matter how good it is, it won’t work the same for everyone”. Of course! You may say, but it is not because one diet is better than the other! It is because every one of us is UNIQUE! And we react differently to each diet because all of us has a different ‘microbiome’ (= trillions of bacteria that live in the gut and differ wildly from person to person). -Here is what Eran Segal en Eran Elinav of the Weizmann Institute of Schience in Israel told TIME in a joint email about their findings: "However, based on our study, another possibility is that people are in fact compliant but that the dietary advice that we are giving them is inappropriate." "We believe a take-home message for people from our work is that if a diet did not work for you, it may be the diet’s fault and not your fault," So you can think about all special foods, intermittent fasting, low carbs diet, protein diet and so on. They can work! But all depends on WHO YOU ARE ON INSIDE, and that it will give a different response to each diet. Maybe you get a bit nervous right know, of even demotivated, but this is AMAZING NEWS!!! Of course: less processed food, less sugar, the right fat (and in the right proportions), exercises, the right time (and the right amount) of sleep and less alcohol it will provide us a healthier body, but this is not all. What comes next? Well according to Segal and Elinav they are busy creating algorithms that will be able to predict how a person’s blood sugar would respond to the food they eat. And here it is what will come next, according to them: “We showed that the comprehensive profile that we measured can be used to achieve and design personally tailored diets” “Our vision is to be able to derive predictions and personalized diets using a small set of inputs that people could fill out in questionnaires and a single microbiome sample. We believe that this is both achievable in the near future and that would be cost effective”. In a practical ways, what that could mean to us: that every nutritionist and diet consultant in the future would use this Personalized Nutrition Predictor; OR questionnaires; OR microbiome test will be available for us thru our medical insurances.
