Aims And Scope
The Journal of Food and Nutrition Science (JFNS) is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal committed to publishing high-quality, original research and comprehensive reviews in all areas of food, nutrition, and health. The journal serves as a vital platform for scholars, academic researchers, clinicians, and industry professionals to disseminate evidence-based knowledge and foster interdisciplinary dialogue that advances science and practice in the field.
JFNS publishes articles that contribute to the scientific understanding and practical application of food and nutrition in the following key areas:
- Human Nutrition: Nutritional assessment, dietary patterns, nutrient metabolism, nutrition across the lifespan, and nutrition-related chronic diseases.
- Clinical and Community Nutrition: Nutritional interventions, malnutrition, public health nutrition, nutritional epidemiology, and global food security.
- Food Science and Technology: Food processing, food safety, functional foods, food chemistry, food microbiology, and food engineering.
- Nutrigenomics and Nutritional Biochemistry: Genetic and molecular mechanisms linking nutrition and health outcomes.
- Dietetics and Health Promotion: Clinical dietetics, nutrition education, behavioral nutrition, and policy implications for improving dietary behaviors.
- Sustainable Food Systems: Innovations in food production, environmental impacts of food choices, and sustainable nutrition.
JFNS welcomes a broad range of article types including original research papers, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, case studies, and commentaries. Submissions are encouraged from diverse disciplines that intersect with food and nutrition science, including biochemistry, public health, agriculture, molecular biology, and food engineering.
The journal aims to support innovation, inform policy, and bridge the gap between scientific research and its real-world application in both developed and developing contexts.
JFNS is published articles are made freely available upon acceptance to ensure wide dissemination and impact. The journal is indexed in leading academic databases to enhance visibility and accessibility to the global research community.
