Journal of Nutrients is an international, peer-reviewed scholarly journal dedicated to advancing knowledge in nutrition science, food composition, nutrient metabolism, and human health. The journal publishes high-quality original research articles, reviews, short communications, case studies, and perspectives that contribute to understanding the role of nutrients in health promotion, disease prevention, and clinical nutrition practice.
The journal aims to disseminate innovative findings on nutrient requirements, dietary sources, nutritional interventions, and nutrition-related health outcomes. It serves as a platform for researchers, clinicians, nutritionists, dietitians, food scientists, and public health professionals to exchange scientific knowledge and address contemporary challenges in human nutrition.
