NUTRITION RESEARCH publishes research articles, communications, and reviews on all
aspects of basic and applied nutrition. The mission
of Nutrition Research is to serve as the
journal for global communication of nutrition and life sciences research on food and
health.
The field of nutritional sciences includes, but is not limited to, the study of nutrients during
growth, reproduction, athletic
performance, aging, and disease. A principal focus of the journal
is to publish research that advances the understanding of nutrients
and health protectants in
food for improving the human condition. Of interest are manuscripts on the development of
biomarkers for
assessing how dietary components influence health status in the human.
The journal also encourages submission of manuscripts describing
investigations in animal
models and cell cultures that utilize methodologic approaches or techniques in biochemistry,
immunology, molecular
biology, toxicology, and physiology. Epidemiologic studies on nutrient
and phytochemical intakes in human populations and novel analytical
techniques for these
compounds are within the scope of the mission for Nutrition Research.
