Background: The past two decades have seen exponential growth in the number of genetic testing companies, but only a small percentage of these tests are being sold through health care professionals (HCPs). As each new genetic testing company appears, it is becoming more difficult for the practitioner and consumer to evaluate the credibility of the claims being made and the value of the tests being offered. Summary: HCPs appear to have minimal nutrigenomics knowledge and little confidence in choosing and interpreting nutrigenetic tests. To remedy this, HCPs need access to credible education, professional support, networking, career development, mentorship, and a regulated testing environment. This will enable them to evaluate the credibility of genetic tests and testing companies, provide genetic results in context, and apply appropriate clinical translation. Key Message: In order to establish an expert group of nutrigenomic practitioners, collaboration is required between educational institutions, professional organizations, and genetic testing companies. This will provide the necessary support, skills, and knowledge to ensure that the best value is extracted from nutrigenetic tests in an ethical and responsible manner.

建立营养基因组从业者专家组需要什么?

背景:过去二十年来,基因检测公司的数量呈指数级增长,但这些检测中只有一小部分是通过医疗保健专业人员 (HCP) 销售的。随着每家新的基因检测公司的出现,从业者和消费者越来越难以评估所提出的声明的可信度和所提供的检测的价值。总结:HCP 似乎缺乏营养基因组学知识,对选择和解释营养基因测试缺乏信心。为了解决这个问题,HCP 需要获得可靠的教育、专业支持、网络、职业发展、指导和受监管的测试环境。这将使他们能够评估基因测试和测试公司的可信度,在上下文中提供基因结果,并应用适当的临床翻译。关键信息:为了建立营养基因组从业者专家组,需要教育机构、专业组织和基因检测公司之间的合作。这将提供必要的支持、技能和知识,以确保以合乎道德和负责任的方式从营养遗传学测试中提取最佳价值。
