Aims & Scope

Food & Nutrition Research is a non-profit, open access, peer-reviewed journal that presents scientific research in various fields within human nutrition. The purpose of Food & Nutrition Research is to publish original research studies directly relevant to human nutrition. Food & Nutrition Research encompasses the full spectrum of nutritional science, including public health nutrition, nutritional epidemiology and clinical nutrition. Food & Nutrition Research welcomes original papers, reviews and commentaries. Suggestions for special issues covering selected topics may be considered. Food & Nutrition Research is devoted to publish manuscripts that advance the knowledge of human nutrition beyond state-of-the-art. Animal, cell and molecular studies will only be considered if they are clearly relevant to scientific questions related to human nutrition. This could be by contributing to mechanistic explanations for associations between diet and health identified in clinical or epidemiological human nutritional studies. Manuscripts describing research in food chemistry (such as the chemical composition and analysis of foods), including exotic plants, extracts and ingredients, are generally not considered eligible unless the results have a clear impact on human nutrition and/or human health. The focus of all manuscripts submitted to Food & Nutrition Research should be to increase knowledge in human nutritional science. Authors may contact the Editor-in-Chief in advance to inquire about whether their research topic is suitable for consideration by Food & Nutrition Research. Through an Open Access publishing model, Food & Nutrition Research provides an important forum where nutrition researchers in academic, public and private arenas can present the latest results from research on human nutrition in a broad sense.
