Nutrition and Health

Nutrition and Health is an online international peer-reviewed journal that focusses on the relationship between nutrition and health. The journal welcomes original investigations, short communications, reviews, systematic reviews and meta-analyses, protocols, commentaries, hypotheses, and case studies on current topics related to the full spectrum of the effects of food ingredients and nutrition, health, and disease. Whilst the major focus of the journal will be on food science, and human nutrition, animal, cellular and molecular-based studies will be accepted where they can shed light on a particular mechanism or treatment modality pertinent to the human condition. Nutrition and Health will consider the publication of studies showing negative and non-findings on an equal basis with those studies showing positive findings.

The journal also seeks to raise awareness of the interrelationship between nutrition, exercise, physical activity and lifestyle for improving health across the lifespan and to demonstrate how healthcare outcomes and policies can be improved with the adoption of a more nutrition-oriented approach. In this way it aspires to provide an invaluable resource to nutrition and healthcare practitioners, as well as researchers and academics of nutrition studies.

Nutrition and Health provides an initial rapid review of all submissions to determine suitability for external peer review. Authors can, if they wish, contact a member of the editorial board with potential submission ideas if they are in doubt as to whether or not they fit the scope or interests of the journal.
