Christine’s work sits at the intersection of clinical nutrition, molecular biology, and lifestyle medicine, and she’s perhaps best known for her groundbreaking research into sulforaphane — the broccoli-derived phytochemical with potent cellular protective effects. In this conversation, we dive into the concept of food as information, the role of nutrigenomics in personalised health care, and how phytochemicals like sulforaphane can upregulate our body's own defence systems. Christine brings decades of clinical, academic, and formulation experience to the table, and this is a must-listen for anyone wanting to understand the power of food beyond just calories and macros.  Dr Christine Houghton has enjoyed a fulfilling and varied career in Nutritional Medicine spanning more than 30 years. As a clinician, author, educator, and researcher, she is internationally recognised for her pioneering work in the clinical application of nutrigenomics — particularly the broccoli-derived phytochemical sulforaphane. Christine earned her PhD in Nutritional Biochemistry–Nutrigenomics from the University of Queensland, where she is also an Adjunct Lecturer in the School of Human Movement and Nutrition Science. She is the founding director of Cell-Logic, where she formulates evidence-based, nutrigenomically active supplements grounded in her research.
