Unhealthy Food and Beverage Marketing to Children in the Digital Age: Global Research and Policy Challenges and Priorities
Annu Rev Nutr. 2024 Apr 17. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-062322-014102. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTFood and nonalcoholic beverage marketing is implicated in poor diet and obesity in children. The rapid growth and proliferation of digital marketing has resulted in dramatic changes to advertising practices and children's exposure. The constantly evolving and data-driven nature of digital food marketing presents substantial challenges for researchers seeking to quantify the impact on children and for policymakers tasked with designing and implementing restrictive policies. We outline the latest evidence on children's experien...

A Black American Nutrition Scholar and Advocate: My Journey
Annu Rev Nutr. 2024 Apr 11. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-062322-030901. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTI started my journey as a nutrition scholar in 1974 when I began PhD studies at Cornell University. My journey has been rich with opportunity. I engaged in research on diet-related risks for cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and cancer, partly motivated by my strong commitment to addressing health disparities affecting Black Americans. Obesity became my major focus and would eventually involve both US and global lenses. This focus was also linked to other dietary intake issues and health disparities and drew on knowledge I h...

Gluconeogenesis Flux in Metabolic Disease
Annu Rev Nutr. 2023 Aug 21;43:153-177. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-061121-091507.ABSTRACTGluconeogenesis is a critical biosynthetic process that helps maintain whole-body glucose homeostasis and becomes altered in certain medical diseases. We review gluconeogenic flux in various medical diseases, including common metabolic disorders, hormonal imbalances, specific inborn genetic errors, and cancer. We discuss how the altered gluconeogenic activity contributes to disease pathogenesis using data from experiments using isotopic tracer and spectroscopy methodologies. These in vitro, animal, and human studies provide insights into...

The Placenta: A Maternofetal Interface
Annu Rev Nutr. 2023 Aug 21;43:301-325. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-061121-085246.ABSTRACTThe placenta is the gatekeeper between the mother and the fetus. Over the first trimester of pregnancy, the fetus is nourished by uterine gland secretions in a process known as histiotrophic nutrition. During the second trimester of pregnancy, placentation has evolved to the point at which nutrients are delivered to the placenta via maternal blood (hemotrophic nutrition). Over gestation, the placenta must adapt to these variable nutrient supplies, to alterations in maternal physiology and blood flow, and to dynamic changes in fetal growt...

Causes and Clinical Sequelae of Riboflavin Deficiency
Annu Rev Nutr. 2023 Aug 21;43:101-122. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-061121-084407.ABSTRACTRiboflavin, in its cofactor forms flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) and flavin mononucleotide (FMN), plays fundamental roles in energy metabolism, cellular antioxidant potential, and metabolic interactions with other micronutrients, including iron, vitamin B6, and folate. Severe riboflavin deficiency, largely confined to low-income countries, clinically manifests as cheilosis, angular stomatitis, glossitis, seborrheic dermatitis, and severe anemia with erythroid hypoplasia. Subclinical deficiency may be much more widespread, including in...

Osteocalcin: A Multifaceted Bone-Derived Hormone
Annu Rev Nutr. 2023 Aug 21;43:55-71. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-061121-091348.ABSTRACTTogether, loss- and gain-of-function experiments have identified the bone-derived secreted molecule osteocalcin as a hormone with a broad reach in rodents and primates. Following its binding to one of three receptors, osteocalcin exerts a profound influence on various aspects of energy metabolism as well as steroidogenesis, neurotransmitter biosynthesis and thereby male fertility, electrolyte homeostasis, cognition, the acute stress response, and exercise capacity. Although this review focuses mostly on the regulation of energy metabolism ...

Current Knowledge About the Impact of Maternal and Infant Nutrition on the Development of the Microbiota-Gut-Brain Axis
Annu Rev Nutr. 2023 Aug 21;43:251-278. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-061021-025355.ABSTRACTThe prenatal and early postnatal periods are stages during which dynamic changes and the development of the brain and gut microbiota occur, and nutrition is one of the most important modifiable factors that influences this process. Given the bidirectional cross talk between the gut microbiota and the brain through the microbiota-gut-brain axis (MGBA), there is growing interest in evaluating the potential effects of nutritional interventions administered during these critical developmental windows on gut microbiota composition and functio...

Precision Nutrition: The Hype Is Exceeding the Science and Evidentiary Standards Needed to Inform Public Health Recommendations for Prevention of Chronic Disease
Annu Rev Nutr. 2023 Aug 21;43:385-407. doi: 10.1146/annurev-nutr-061021-025153.ABSTRACTAs dietary guidance for populations shifts from preventing deficiency disorders to chronic disease risk reduction, the biology supporting such guidance becomes more complex due to the multifactorial risk profile of disease and inherent population heterogeneity in the diet-disease relationship. Diet is a primary driver of chronic disease risk, and population-based guidance should account for individual responses. Cascading effects on evidentiary standards for population-based guidance are not straightforward. Precision remains a considera...
