Nutritional Epigenetics Mission

Nutritional Epigenetics Model for Autism/ADHD

Nutritional Epigenetics Model for Autism/ADHD

Dr. Dufault's mission is to determine how diet, nutritional deficits, and heavy metal exposures, studied at food research institutes, change gene behaviors to create conditions for the development of diseases or disorders.

Nutritional Epigenetics Model for Autism/ADHD

In 2009, Dr. Dufault and her collaborators at food research institutes developed and published the first nutritional epigenetics model to explain how dietary factors influence gene behaviors, ultimately contributing to the conditions associated with autism and ADHD.

Nutritional Epigenetics Model for Autism/ADHD

Educating Parents

Dr. Dufault created a curriculum that has been successfully utilized in three different clinical trials, helping parents learn how to avoid heavy metal exposures in the ultra-processed food supply while also improving their nutrient intake, a focus echoed by various food research institutes.
