Fluxomics

Fluxomics is the study of how chemical substances move through the cells of our bodies. It helps us to understand how certain substances – such as nutrients or drugs – pass through our body and how they are used and transformed by our bodies. To understand fluxomics, it can help to think of our bodies like tiny factories – with different parts coming together to make chemicals and energy! Fluxomics studies and tracks the movement of these substances to see how it affects our overall health.
