Dietary Fatty Acids, Hemostasis, and CVD Risk
Journal Article 2004
This article, published in the Journal of the American Dietetic Association (2004;104:410–419; quiz 492), describes relationships between dietary fatty acids, hemostasis, and CVD risk. The article is approved by the American Dietetic Association for continuing education credits.
Acrylamide in Food Workshop 2004: Priority Research Needs for Toxicology and Metabolic Consequences
Journal Article 2004
This article discusses the determination of modes of action and appropriate dose metrics for acrylamide’s principal toxic effects, the examination of potential effects from perinatal exposures, the characterization of the dose-response relationship for germ cell toxicity, and the development of a human PBPK model.
Functional Foods for Health Promotion: Implications for Reducing Obesity
Release/Announcement 2005
Published as a commentary in Nutrition Today (2004;40:165–168), this article provides highlights from the special conference on functional foods and an increased understanding of onset obesity and provided further knowledge about the physiological response to food and food components.
Effect of Chronic Caffeine Intake on Choice Reaction Time, Mood, and Visual Vigilance
Journal Article 2005
This study, published in Psychology and Behavior (2005;85:629–634), discusses the lack of research and expands on current research to examine chronic caffeine intake and how it affects our reaction time, mood, and visual vigilance.
Fluid-Electrolyte and Renal Indices of Hydration During Eleven Days of Controlled Caffeine Consumption
Journal Article 2005
After identifying critical gaps in caffeine research, this study examined the effects of tolerance and withdrawal from caffeine on hydration status in subjects who are regular users of caffeine. The findings were published in the International Journal of Sport Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism (2005;15:252–265).
Kinetic and Mechanistic Data for a Human Physiologically Bases Pharmacokinetic (PBPK) Model for Acrylamide
Journal Article 2005
Despite gaps and limitations to the database, model parameters have been estimated to provide a relatively consistent description of the kinetics of acrylamide and glycidamide using a single set of values (with minor adjustments in some cases). This review, published in Advances in Experimental Medicine and Biology (2005;561:117–125), discusses the PBPK model for acrylamide.
Human Exposure and Internal Dose Assessments of Acrylamide in Food
Journal Article 2005
This review, published in Food and Chemical Toxicology (2005;43:365–410), provides a framework contributing to the risk assessment of acrylamide in food. It is based on the outcome of the ILSI Europe FOSIE process, a risk assessment framework for chemicals in foods and adds to the overall framework by focusing especially on exposure assessment and internal dose assessment of acrylamide in food.
ILSI North America Conference on Hydration and Health Promotion - JACN Supplement
Journal Article 2006
This supplement to the Journal of the American College of Nutrition (2007;26 Suppl:529S–623S), discusses the importance of hydration and health promotion.
Mental Energy - Defining the Science 2006
Proceedings 2006
This work provides highlights of the April 2004 workshop on mental energy.
Dietary Reference Intakes: Implications for Fiber Labeling and Consumption
Other 2006
This article, published in Nutrition Reviews (2006;64:31–38), compares definitions of fiber, raising questions on criteria for defining fiber and analytical and functional ways to distinguish among fibers.
