Advanced nutritional research from a physiological standpoint

Abstract

Recent years have witnessed profound advancements in nutritional research, particularly when viewed through the lens of physiology. Scientists and researchers persistently delve into the intricate interplay between nutrients and the human body. This ongoing exploration has yielded a nuanced understanding of how dietary components intricately influence human health. Some key advances include: Microbiome Research, Precision or personalised Nutrition, Epigenetic and Nutrigenomics, Metabolic Flexibility, Intermittent Fasting and time-restricted eating, Nutrient timing, Dietary influences on mental health, Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals, Role of inflammation, Advanced Imaging Techniques, Nutri-informatics, etc.
