This concept paper intends to define four new paradigms for improving nutrition research. First, the consequences of applying a reductionist versus a holistic approach to nutrition science will be discussed. The need for a more focused preventive nutrition approach, as opposed to a curative one, will then be presented on the basis of the 'healthy core metabolism' concept. This will lead us to propose a new classification of food products based on processing for future epidemiological studies. As a result of applying the holistic approach, health food potential will be redefined based on both food structure and nutrient density. These new paradigms should help define a more ethical preventive nutrition for humans to improve public recommendations while preserving the environment.
本概念文件旨在定义四种改善营养研究的新范式。首先,将讨论在营养科学中应用还原论方法与整体论方法的后果。然后,将基于“健康核心代谢”概念,提出与治疗性营养方法相对的更具针对性的预防性营养方法的必要性。这将引导我们为未来的流行病学研究提出一种基于加工方式的食品新分类。由于应用了整体论方法,将基于食物结构和营养密度重新定义健康食品的潜力。这些新范式应有助于为人类定义一种更具伦理道德的预防性营养,以改进公共建议,同时保护环境。
