Epigenetics refers to the study of heritable phenotype changes which occur independently of alterations in the primary DNA sequence. Epigenetic processes play a crucial role in human development before birth. These processes are crucial to fetal development. In this stage, a single cell differentiates into a variety of different cell types, which later form cohesive tissues, organs and organ systems. The study of food nutrients and their effects on human health through epigenetic modifications is known as nutriepigenomics. If metabolic disturbances occur during the time of human development, then epigenetic alterations may lead to permanent changes in the tissues and organ structures resulting in diseases. This book elucidates the concepts and innovative models around prospective developments with respect to epigenetics and human health. It studies, analyzes and upholds the pillars of epigenetics and human health and its utmost significance in modern times. The extensive content of this book provides the readers with a thorough understanding of the subject.
