'Switched On' - Harnessing the Power of Nutrigenomics to Optimise Your Health

Clinician, author, educator, and a regular speaker at Australian and international conferences, Dr Christine Houghton's intense appreciation of the power of food as therapy began in the 1970s, an era when there were very few supplements available. With few other choices back then, she soon discovered the real power of food as a potent clinical intervention tool. Since then, she has enjoyed a highly rewarding career in Nutritional Medicine (including in Nutrigenomics) spanning more than 30 years. Christine holds a PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry-Nutrigenomics and a BSc in Biochemistry, both from The University of Queensland (Australia), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Human Nutrition from Deakin University (Victoria, Australia), and is an Adjunct Lecturer in the School of Human Movement and Nutrition Science at The University of Queensland. She is currently Chief Scientific Officer at Cell-Logic Pty Ltd, where she researches and leads a team in formulating a number of scientifically-based nutrigenomically-active supplements. In addition to her scientific and other publications, Christine is also the co-author of two evidence-based practitioner nutrigenomics courses -- the only comprehensive courses of their kind available globally.
