Welcome to the December edition of the Nutrition Evidence Alert.<\/h2>\n
\n

\"\"Well, what a year it has\u00a0been. Following in the \u2018footsteps of giants\u2019 such as Miguel Toribio-Mateas was always going to be challenging!\u00a0Despite what we have faced this year with COVID-19, NED has come on leaps and bounds. A new Editorial Board was formed,\u00a0to continue the development of NED as the UK\u2019s first scientific database of nutrition and lifestyle medicine research\u00a0(see\u00a0https:\/\/www.nutrition-evidence.com\/editorial-board<\/a>\u00a0). Our focus has been on delivering a nutrition-specific resource to inform nutrition and other healthcare practitioners, academic researchers, policy-makers\u00a0and students through access to high-quality, evidence-based research to support clinical decision-making. As part of this our Editorial Board has been shaping a specialised algorithm to improve database search returns. A central focus for this year was to increase our team of NED reviewers, to provide on-going expert considerations to specific research papers and areas of current interest to inform both the public and practitioners alike. With this in mind, I am very much looking forward to the collection of expert reviews, expert opinion pieces and (new for 2022) NED \u2018Talks\u2019 to help bring to life an evidence-based approach to nutrition for everyone to benefit from.<\/p>\n

Thank you to the wonderful NED team for your hard work and on-going contributions this year. Happy Xmas and here’s to 2022.<\/p>\n
