Personalized Nutrition in Pediatric Chronic Diseases

Abstract

This narrative review examines the application of personalized nutrition (PN) through multi-OMICS and trans-OMICS in pediatric populations, particularly in relation to chronic conditions such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and celiac disease. We synthesize evidence to identify biomarkers and gene-environment interactions and translate molecular insights into individualized dietary guidance. Even though PN represents a promising strategy for optimizing child health, significant challenges remain in translating molecular findings into practical, cost-effective, and equitable interventions. We advocate integrating this knowledge into clinical practice and developing policies and standardized methodologies that ensure accessibility for all pediatric populations.
