Dietary Intakes of Flavan-3-ols and Cardio-metabolic Health: Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Randomized Trials and Prospective Cohort Studies

The authors of this study examined, for the first time, if there is consistent evidence that higher flavan-3-ol intake, irrespective of dietary source, reduces cardiometabolic risk.

Perspective: Guiding Principles for the Implementation of Personalized Nutrition Approaches That Benefit Health and Function

A definition for “personalized nutrition” (PN) is proposed, along with 10 guiding principles that are intended to establish a basis for responsible approaches to the evidence-based research and practice of PN and serve as an invitation for further public dialog.

Evaluating the Applicability of a Risk-based Approach (Decision Tree) to Mycotoxins Mitigation

The primary aim of this work was to evaluate a hypothesis on whether a foundational framework (decision tree) previously developed by the North American Branch of the International Life Sciences Institute (IAFNS) Food and Chemical Safety Committee for a risk-based approach to mitigation of process-formed compounds could be applied to other not-readily-avoidable substances, such as mycotoxins.

Incorporating New Approach Methodologies in Toxicity Testing and Exposure Assessment for Tiered Risk Assessment Using the RISK21 Approach: Case Studies on Food Contact Chemicals

This study highlights the potential utility of the RISK21 approach for interpretation of the ToxCast HTS data, as well as the challenges involved in integrating in vitro HTS data into safety assessments. This work was supported by the IAFNS Food and Chemical Safety Committee 2016 Summer Fellowship.
