He published more than 1,200 papers and books, of which about 850 dealt with scientific topics. Scientific American called him one of the 20 greatest scientists of all time. For his scientific work, Pauling was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1954. For his peace activism, he was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1962. He is one of five people to have won more than one Nobel Prize. Of these, he is the only person to have been awarded two unshared Nobel Prizes, and one of two people to be awarded Nobel Prizes in different fields, the other being Marie Curie. Pauling was one o…

The Nobel Prizes are awards administered by the Nobel Foundation and granted in accordance with the principle of "for the greatest benefit to humankind". The prizes were first awarded in 1901, marking the fifth anniversary of Alfred Nobel's death. The original Nobel Prizes covered five fields: physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine, literature, and peace, specified in Nobel's will. A sixth prize, the Prize in Economic Sciences, was established in 1968 by Sveriges Riksbank (Sweden's central bank) in memory of Alfred Nobel. The Nobel Prizes are widely regarded as the most prestigious awards available in their respective fields. Except in unusual or special circumstances, such as war, all…

The Evolution of Personalized Nutrition-From Addis, Pauling, and RJ Williams to the Future.. As forward progress continues, coupling together a person's genomic and epigenomic patterns with the deciphering of information that resides within the noncoding or "dark matter" of the human genome will revolutionize all fields of health care and certainly medical nutrition therapy. The more information we obtain in this field, the more we recognize that nutritional needs are not determined by single SNPs alone. Rather, it is more accurate to say that families of genes function together in a network to regulate metabolic function and its relationship to specific nutrients. The days of one-size-fits…
