European Nutrition Society
Nutrition science, professional education and scientific exchange.
The European Nutrition Society brings researchers, educators and nutrition professionals together to examine evidence and its application. Our work centres on the questions, methods and collaborations that inform nutrition research and public health.
In focus
Explore questions that matter when reading and using nutrition evidence.
- Dietary reference values — understand the purpose and population behind a reference value.
- Research reporting — find guidance suited to a study design.
- Sustainable healthy diets — consider the scope and assumptions of a comparison.
Scientific priorities
Our subject areas connect research methods with questions about nutrient reference values, public health, dietary guidance and food systems. Each topic brings together relevant evidence and routes to further study.
Publications and resources
Find scientific documents, research tools and educational material. Resource records identify the publisher, intended audience and source, so you can assess the material before using it.
