Instructions to Authors
Article types
Nutrition Reviews publishes review articles in both the narrative and systematic review formats. Systematic reviews must address a clearly defined research question that is articulated in the abstract; they must also follow recognized approaches to the literature selection, analysis, and conclusions, as outlined in accepted guidelines, such as PRISMA or MOOSE. Scoping reviews that investigate the available literature on a topic in order to determine if more research is required, or if there is sufficient available literature for a full review, fall outside of the journal's scope and are not considered for publication. Submissions in the following article categories are welcome:
Lead Article: Comprehensive review of a broad topic;
Special Article: Comprehensive review focused on a niche topic, a specific aspect of a broad topic, or new methods in nutrition science;
Nutrition in Clinical Care: Presentation of clinically relevant brief reviews of evidence-based information and tools to facilitate translation into clinical practice;
Emerging Science: Discussion of an important current study or group of studies in nutrition research presented in the context of the larger body of research on that topic;
Nutrition Science ↔ Policy: Review of the interaction between scientific research and national and international health and nutrition policy;
Letter to the Editor: Addition to the discourse regarding certain topics covered in recent issues of the journal.
Systematic reviews may be submitted for any category except Emerging Science and Letter to the Editor. Articles in the categories of Lead Article, Special Article, Nutrition in Clinical Care, Emerging Science, and Nutrition Science ↔ Policy are subject to peer review. Letters to the Editor are published at the discretion of the editors.
Terms of consideration
All manuscripts submitted to the journal must be original works of authorship that are not under simultaneous consideration elsewhere and do not infringe the intellectual property rights of any individual or organization. All previously published information, whether by the authors themselves or other individuals, groups, or entities, must be appropriately cited. The final version must have been read and approved by all of the individuals named as authors. The work must present novel information that differs substantially from that presented in works published by the authors previously. Authors should attest to these terms in their cover letter.
Authorship and originality
To qualify for authorship, individuals must meet all of the following criteria: 1) contributed significantly to the work’s conception, design, data collection (as applicable), or data interpretation and analysis; 2) participated in the writing or critical revision of the article in a manner sufficient to establish ownership of the intellectual content; and 3) read and approved the version of the manuscript being submitted. All authors share responsibility for ensuring the manuscript complies with the journal’s style requirements and terms of consideration. Any requests for changes to author names, or order of appearance, that are received post submission will need to be approved in writing by all authors.
Funding and sponsorship
All sources of funding for the article’s research, preparation, and publication should be noted in the article’s Acknowledgments section under the subheading “Funding” and be acknowledged in the cover letter. The full name of the funding agency should be provided and grant numbers should be supplied. If grants or other funding were given to specific authors, the relevant individuals should be identified by their initials in parentheses.
The role any sponsor played in the study design, data collection and analysis, manuscript preparation and revision, and publication decisions should be made clear in the Funding declaration in the Acknowledgments section. Authors should also indicate whether they received complete access to data pertaining to the publication that was owned by the sponsor.
CrossRef Funding Data Registry
In order to meet your funding requirements authors are required to name their funding sources, or state if there are none, during the submission process. In order to meet your funding requirements authors are required to name their funding sources, or state if there are none, during the submission process.

Competing interests
All authors are required to disclose relevant competing interests by noting them in the Acknowledgments section of the manuscript under the subheading "Declaration of Interest." Guidelines regarding what constitutes a competing interest are included in the Declaration of Interest form. Completed Declaration of Interest forms for each author should be uploaded as
Supporting Information at the time of manuscript submission.
Manuscript preparation
Cover letter. The cover letter should address the following topics: description of the work and its novelty; authorship; and originality. The description of the work should clearly indicate what novel contribution the submitted article makes to the existing literature. A statement should indicate that all listed authors meet the criteria for authorship (see Authorship and Originality entry above) and that no individual meeting these criteria has been omitted. Regarding originality, the following should be declared or, if untrue, explained: 1) the submitted article represents the original work of the authors; 2) the article is not currently under consideration elsewhere, nor has it been previously published in the same or substantially similar form; and 3) no copyright to any other work was breached in the manuscript’s creation.
Manuscript format. Manuscripts should be prepared electronically using word-processing software, preferably Microsoft Word. Article pages should be formatted as double-spaced and left-justified text with 1-inch margins and 12-point type. Pages and lines must be numbered.
Length restrictions. Articles in any category must be formatted as indicated in the Manuscript format guidelines section and may not exceed 50 double-spaced pages in length, including references and illustrative material. Each article should provide a focused, concise, and objective investigation of a clearly defined topic.
Supporting information. The option to publish certain material as “Supporting Information” in an online-only format is provided. Authors are encouraged to make use of this option to accommodate material that may be of interest to the reader but is not integral to the work itself. Examples would include extensive summary tables and appendices. It is particularly important that the main text of an article include everything essential for a complete understanding of the review and that the main text stand alone from the Supporting Information. Readers should not need to toggle between documents to obtain or understand information. If references are included in Supporting Information documents, they should be listed at the end of each document and appear in a numerical sequence pertaining solely to that document.
Cover page. The following information should be included on the cover page:
Article type. Choose one of the article types in which the journal specializes. Editors may change this designation if they find the article is better suited to another category.
Title. The title of the article should be short (200 characters or less), specific, and accurately describe the topic of the work. Abbreviations and acronyms should not be used unless they are widely recognized and generally understood, e.g. HIV, DNA. Articles and phrases such as “the use of,” “the treatment of,” and “a report of” should be avoided.
Author names. Please list the first name, middle initial(s), and last name of each author in descending order of their contributions to the article. Individuals who provided technical or administrative support should be recognized in the Acknowledgments section.
Author affiliations. The names of all authors affiliated with a particular institution should be listed directly above the affiliation. Each affiliation should include the department, institution, city, state (spelled out, if applicable), and country.
Corresponding author. The name, complete mailing address, telephone and e-mail address should be provided for the author responsible for correspondence.
Abstract. An abstract clearly outlining the topic and primary objective of the review, methods of data sourcing and extraction, data synthesis (as applicable), and conclusions must be included with each article. The length should not exceed 170 words for Lead, Special, and Nutrition Science ↔ Policy papers or 125 words for Emerging Science and Nutrition in Clinical Care papers. Abstracts exceeding these word limits will be shortened during copyediting. References, tables, and figures should not be cited in the abstract.
Key words. At least three to five key words or phrases should be provided.
Sections and headings
Narrative reviews. Each manuscript should contain the following sections in addition to the abstract:
Introduction (directly following the abstract)
Conclusion (at the end of the text)
Acknowledgements (after the Conclusion)
Funding and sponsorship (as part of the Acknowledgments)
Declaration of interest (as part of the Acknowledgments)
References (after the Acknowledgments).
Between the Introduction and Conclusion, headings and subheadings are at the discretion of the author. They should be used to organize the text and guide the reader.
Systematic reviews. Articles of this type should be prepared in accordance with relevant, existing guidelines (e.g., PRISMA, MOOSE) and be structured accordingly. If the guidelines used include a checklist, the completed checklist should be uploaded as Supporting Information during the manuscript submission process. Questions regarding the acceptability of chosen guidelines can be sent to the journal’s editorial office via e-mail (nutritionreviews@ilsi.org).
Abbreviations and acronyms. Abbreviations and acronyms should not be used unless they are widely recognized and generally understood, e.g. BMI, FDA. These should only be used for terms used more than four times in the text. If that criterion is met, the term should be spelled out on first use followed by the abbreviation or acronym in parentheses. The abbreviated form should be used consistently thereafter, except in section headings, where it should continue to be spelled out.
References. The number of references cited should be tailored to the material being reviewed and be from reputable sources. As a general rule, articles in the Lead, Special, and Nutrition Science ↔ Policy categories do not typically include more than 200 references, while articles in the Emerging Science and Nutrition in Clinical Care categories do not typically have more than 120.
References should be numbered sequentially upon first appearance in text, tables, and figures. They should be typed as superscripts and placed after commas and periods but before colons and semicolons. When citing a series of consecutive numbers, provide the first and last with a dash between them (e.g., 5–7). When referring to a group of authors in the text, the format “Smith et al.23” should be used.
References cited only in figure or table legends should be numbered according to the first mention of the graphic in the text and should be cited in the text at that point. Reference to unpublished work or personal communications should be avoided but, when essential, should be identified in the text as “unpublished data” or “personal communication from …”, not in the reference list. To ensure long-term accessibility, internet citations should only be used if that is the sole source of the information.
The reference list should be formatted according to AMA style. For each citation, sufficient information must be provided to allow a reader to know in what medium the material appeared and to access the information. Please list all authors if there are six or fewer; for seven or more authors, list the first three followed by “et al.” Examples of AMA style are as follows:

More detailed guidance on Internet citations is provided in the recommendations of the Library of Medicine.
Tables and illustrations. Tables and illustrations should be numbered in the sequence in which they appear in the text. They should appear in sequence after the reference list.
Tables. All tables should be included in the text file after the reference list. Each table should be constructed using the table functions of the word-processing program being used. A title should appear at the top of each table. A column heading should appear in the top cell of each column. Within the table, each data set should appear in a single cell; the return key should not be used within any cell. Text should be justified to the left. Numerical data should be justified to the decimal point. Capitalization should be restricted to the first letter of the legend, the first letter in each cell, and applicable abbreviations or acronyms. Abbreviations used in the table should be spelled out in a footnote. When citing prior studies in tables please use the following format: Smith et al. (1998)21.
Illustrations. All artwork should be submitted in digital format in separate files saved using the following convention: surname of first author_figure number (e.g., Smith_figure 1). Figure legends should be cited in the manuscript after the reference list but should not appear in the figures themselves. Charts and graphs downloaded from the Internet are not acceptable. Line artwork (vector graphics) should be saved in Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) format and bitmap files (halftones or photographic images) in Tagged Image Format (TIFF), with a resolution of at least 300 dpi at final size. Do not send native file formats. More detailed guidance for submitting electronic artwork can be found at the Author Resource Centre. A free tool for converting files to other formats can be located at the Zamar website.
Color illustrations. Artwork submitted in color is reproduced in color online at no cost. If color reproduction is desired in the print version of the journal, a contribution of US $600 per figure is required.
Illustration permissions. If a table or figure is a reproduction or adaptation of a previously published work, written permission to reproduce or adapt the material must be obtained from the copyright holder prior to submission, and the source of the material must be cited either in a footnote to the table or in the figure legend. When requesting permission, rights to worldwide distribution in both print and electronic formats must be secured. The permissions grant must be included with the original submission. This requirement also applies to material published as Supporting Information.
