UNC NUTRITION RESEARCHINSTITUTEin Kannapolis, North CarolinaOn a 350 acre campus thatfocuses on nutritionresearch.At the NRI we study –Why do metabolism,nutrition and diseaserisk differ betweenpeople?
NORTH CAROLINA RESEARCH CAMPUSMission: To transform science at the intersection of human health,nutrition and agriculture Appalachian State University Human Performance LaboratoryDavid H.

NRI RESEARCH INTERESTS We are pioneering research with cutting-edgediscoveries of unique differences in DNA andmetabolism Nutritional individuality through nutrigenomics andmetabolomics. Potential for creating diet and exercise planscustomized to each person’s distinct needs. NRI research is contributing to improved braindevelopment and function, and resistance to or bettertreatment of diseases such as cancer, diabetes, obesitycardiovascular and kidney diseases.
WE EAT VERY DIFFERENTLY, ITMAKES SENSE THAT WE DIFFERIN OUR METABOLISMS
WHY DO METABOLISM, NUTRITIONAND DISEASE RISK DIFFERBETWEEN PEOPLE?Single nucleotidepolymorphism (SNP)GENETIC VARIATIONMany of us have mistakes in ourgenetic code.SNPs are mistakes that occur inat least 1% of the population.It is estimated that each of ushas 50,000 such gene mistakes.
