Recent developments in nutritional sciences are concluding that the diseases of the modern days such as diabetes, heart diseases, thyroid, cancer, are significantly influenced by the dietary patterns. Nutrition goes beyond ameliorating or curing diseases and encompasses with objective to prevent diseases and improve health of entire populations consequently providing an improved healthcare at lower costs. Comprehensive analysis of human metabolomes provides basis for revised nutrition patterns for human beings. Major likelihood of future diseases within the contexts of individuals overall health and casual risk can be identified and appropriate steps can be undertaken in individual dietary intakes leading to avoidance of homeostasis and maintain a better metabolic at individual level. Cultural and lifestyle factors can manifest in genetic variations, environmental conditions and dietary habits which in turn dictate individual predispositions to disease and health potential. Human metabotypes are a combination of genetic and environmental factors with diet and lifestyle representing significant sources of diversity. The determinations of metabotypes in human populations will be extremely useful to quantify the physiological and biochemical data to phenotype, genetic and environmental variations. Personalized nutrition will be a reality soon as the data mentioned above will help is understanding the need of an individual based on his or her genetic, environmental and phenotype variations and appropriate nutritional measures will provide means to deal with the expected diseases and augment treatment and prevention. There is a need for better understanding of these principles and may offer a low cost solution for healthcare to all.
