TL;DR: The results of a conference of 38 national experts in nutrition and public health who met to develop performance standards that could guide restaurants toward facilitating healthier choices among consumers and that local communities or states could use as a model for developing and implementing either voluntary or mandatory certification programs are presented in this article.

TL;DR: The design of a randomized crossover clinical trial that combines outpatient feeding with precisely controlled metabolic phenotyping in an inpatient metabolic ward is described, to describe initial cause-and-effect mechanisms of gut microbiome metabolism on host energy balance.

TL;DR: To demonstrate that dietary datasets from the Continuing Survey of Food Intakes by Individuals, a US population survey, allow comparisons with national data and provide food composition datasets that can be used to generate similar dietary data, two studies using the same food composition tables are described.

TL;DR: Overweight and obese individuals with the G allele of LCT variant rs4988235 may benefit improving adiposity by eating a low-calorie, high-protein diet.

TL;DR: The two-fold purpose of this paper is to examine the adequacy of food composition databases and dietary assessment techniques to meet the needs of nutritional genomic research and to explore the challenges and opportunities presented by the emerging field of nutrigenomics to future development of food compositions databases and food composition analysis systems.
