What is an automatic pill dispenser, and how does it improve medication adherence?
An automatic pill dispenser is a smart device designed to organize, store, and dispense medications at pre-set times, helping patients follow their prescribed treatment schedules accurately. These devices are particularly beneficial for elderly individuals, people with chronic conditions, or those taking multiple medications daily. By automating the process, they reduce the risk of missed doses, overdosing, or medication errors.
What is nutrigenomics, and how does it influence personalized nutrition?
Nutrigenomics is the study of how an individual’s genes interact with their diet and how these interactions affect health, metabolism, and disease risk. It combines nutrition science and genomics to understand why people respond differently to the same foods and nutrients. By analyzing genetic variations, researchers can identify how specific nutrients influence gene expression, metabolism, and physiological processes.
