Nutrition is a science of great importance. Indeed, unless one studies it, one might be afraid to eat anything, in view of all the scare stories about food. Today is the age of molecular biology and above all of DNA. The human genome project will bring new understanding of genetic diseases, and many of these will be "inborn errors of metabolism," in which nutrition has an important role. The challenge of nutrition is to help provide a healthy diet for all the world.
营养学是一门极为重要的科学。的确，鉴于所有关于食物的耸人听闻的报道，若不研究营养学，人们可能会对吃任何东西都心存恐惧。如今是分子生物学时代，尤其是DNA的时代。人类基因组计划将带来对遗传疾病的新认识，其中许多疾病将是“先天性代谢缺陷”，而营养在这些疾病中起着重要作用。营养学面临的挑战是帮助为全世界所有人提供健康的饮食。
