This issue of the Journal focuses on issues in the intersection of nutritional science and cancer prevention research. In this commentary, we provide a high-level orientation for the reader to nutrition and cancer. We begin by reviewing the burden of cancer which has necessitated public policy recommending improvements to diet for the prevention of cancer in the U.S., although this is true of many other countries as well. These policy recommendations are based on the critical review of scientific evidence linking diet and cancer. We then discuss the inconsistencies in the nutrition-cancer scientific literature and the subsequent issues Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) face when translating this literature in the clinic. We conclude with some resources for practitioners and general guidance.
本期杂志聚焦于营养科学和癌症预防研究交叉领域的问题。在这篇评论中，我们为读者提供了一个关于营养和癌症的高层次导向。我们首先回顾了癌症的负担，这使得美国有必要制定公共政策，建议改善饮食以预防癌症，尽管许多其他国家也是如此。这些政策建议是基于对饮食与癌症之间关联的科学证据的严格审查。然后，我们讨论了营养与癌症科学文献中的不一致性，以及注册营养师在临床中翻译这些文献时面临的后续问题。最后，我们为从业者提供了一些资源和一般指导。
