Critical Research Needs in Food Safety Microbiology

Food Protection Trends, 2009

As discussed in this review published in the December issue of Food Protection Trends, control, detection, and mitigation were identified as three critically important research areas by the IAFNS Committee on Food Microbiology for looking at spore-forming bacterial pathogens, spoilage organisms, and Salmonella.

Early Risk Determinants and Later Health Outcomes

American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2009

This workshop, discussed in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (2009;89), stemmed from a quest to consolidate current knowledge on the early determinants of maternal and child health outcomes related to obesity, cardiovascular disease risk, and neurodevelopment. The primary goal was to delineate the relative influence of genetics and environmental factors.

Functional Foods for Health Promotion: State-of-the-Science on Dietary Flavonoids

Nutrition Reviews, 2009

This article, published in Nutrition Reviews (2009;67:736–743), indicates that dietary flavonoids, particularly flavanols, show promising potential for reducing cardiovascular disease risk via reduction of inflammation and improvement in vascular function.
