Resumo: | This article investigates, from a sociological perspective, the emergence of nutritional genomics, a field of research that has emerged from the Human Genome Project and whose aim is to renew the diagnosis, prevention and management of food related chronic pathologies. By identifying more precisely the genetic and epigenetic risk factors at the individual level, this would indeed lead to the development of personalized nutrition. As such, it is often presented as a scientific revolution. The first part of the paper defines this research field by discussing its main scientific issues and presenting its medical applications that consist in biotechnology which has been available on the market over the past decade (nutrigenetic testing) as well as a public health program which is currently being drawn up (the “first 1.000 days” initiative). Then it focuses on its social, ethical and political consequences as it could induce new forms of responsibility at the individual, intergenerational and political scales, and also heighten the medicalization of food and, consequently, its individualization. Finally the paper tries to understand to what extent the fi eld of nutritional genomics may contribute to (re)consider the dialogue between social, biomedical and life sciences regarding the food and health relationships. Keywords: Environment. Epigenetics. Public Health. Interdisciplinary research. Nutrigenomics. |

Nutrigenomics.Este artigo investiga, a partir de uma perspectiva sociológica, a emergência da genômica nutricional, um campo de pesquisa que surgiu do Projeto Genoma Humano, cujo objetivo é renovar o diagnóstico, a prevenção e o manejo de patologias crônicas relacionadas à alimentação. Nesta abordagem, a identificação precisa de fatores de risco genéticos e epigenéticos no nível individual pode culminar no desenvolvimento de uma nutrição personalizada. Por isso, é frequentemente apresentada como uma revolução científica. A primeira parte do artigo define esse campo de pesquisa discutindo suas principais questões científicas e apresentando suas aplicações médicas que consistem em: biotecnologia disponível no mercado na última década (via testes nutrigenéticos), bem como um programa de saúde pública (a iniciativa “Primeiros 1000 dias”). Em seguida, foca em suas consequências sociais, éticas e políticas, visto que pode provocar novas formas de responsabilidade nas escalas individual, intergeracional e política, além de estimular a medicalização da alimentação e, consequentemente, sua individualização. Finalmente, o artigo procura compreender em que medida as relações alimentação-saúde no campo da genômica nutricional podem ser melhor analisadas a partir de uma abordagem que religue as ciências sociais, biomédicas e da vida.
