Personalized nutrition is one of the most up to date trends in human nutrition and gains much interest of general public and scientists as well. Although we have gained some knowledge on gene-trait associations, the real effectiveness and usefulness of genotype-based nutritional recommendations is unknown. Many personalized nutrition companies are on the market today, some of them use personalized nutrition based on genotype analysis. For this reason, scientific basis of this approach should be clarified. Moreover, the effect of using genotype information in dietary interventions aimed at decreasing caffeine intake has never been tested. Our project can thus increase knowledge which can be applied in dietary counseling practice. Although we focus on caffeine intake, the study is designed as a proof of concept.
