Food Nutrition

The “Food Nutrition” Section is dedicated to unraveling the complex interplay between diet and human health. With a focus on food composition, this Section scrutinizes the macro- and micronutrients that constitute our daily diets. It explores the diverse food properties that influence food quality and safety, as well as the myriad of bioactive compounds present in foods that exert protective effects against various diseases.

A key emphasis is placed on the health benefits of consuming a balanced diet, particularly how specific foods contribute to improved physical and mental well-being. The Section also takes a deep dive into the critical realm of gut health, examining how dietary choices can modulate the gut microbiota and impact overall health.

In acknowledging that foods can have both positive and negative effects, the “Food Nutrition” Section also investigates the adverse effects of foods, such as allergens and foodborne illnesses. It provides a platform for research on food nutrients, utilizing cutting-edge in vitro and in vivo models to determine how accessible and available these nutrients are within the human body.

This Section is an essential read for researchers, nutritionists, and health-conscious individuals seeking to understand the science behind food and nutrition, and how it can be applied to promote health and prevent disease.
