JFF (Journal of Functional Foods) aims to bring together the results of fundamental and applied research into healthy foods and biologically active food ingredients. The Journal is centered in the specific area at the boundaries among food science, nutrition and health, welcoming papers having a good interdisciplinary approach. The Journal covers the following areas:Food bioactive compounds & nutraceutical ingredients such as plant bioactives, dietary fibre, probiotics, prebiotics, functional lipids, bioactive peptides, vitamins, antioxidants, minerals, botanicals etc.Food digestion and its processes including studies of the microbiota and gut- organ axisHealthy food constituents' characterization using in-vivo animal or/and human studies, genomic, chemical, biochemical technologiesEfficacity and safety of bioactive compoundsEffects of processing (including packaging and storage) on food and food ingredients functionalityRegulatory aspects of functional foods and related issues e.g. labelling, substantiation of health claims, allergensPersonalized nutrition, sport nutritionRole of food ingredients, functional foods and diet in disease prevention and in the management of diseasesNutritional and technological aspects related to the development of functional foods and beverages are of core interest to the journal. Experimental works dealing with food digestion, bioavailability of food bioactives and on the mechanisms by which foods and their components are able to modulate physiological parameters connected with disease prevention are of particular interest as well as those dealing with personalized nutrition and food designed for the benefit of specific pathologies.The following papers are not within the scope of the Journal:Papers only dealing with food analysis and characterization of food structure and compositionPapers focusing on the absorption kinetic of single bioactivesPapers dealing with pure compounds having no connection with foodSince January 2020, JFF is an open access journal. Authors who publish in the Journal will be able to make their work immediately, permanently, and freely accessible. JFF continues with the same aims and scope, editorial team, submission system and rigorous peer review. We give authors the possibility to publish their top-quality papers in a well-established leading journal in the food and nutrition fields. The Journal kept its rigorous criteria to screen high impact research addressing relevant scientific topics and performed by sound methodologies.Elsevier works with institutions and funding bodies to help authors publishing in our journals comply with open access policies. Find out here if your institute is part of an Elsevier agreement.Please note: JFF has a strict policy about the selection of Editorial Board Members, Associate Editors, and about Special issues of the journal.
The Journal of Trace Elements and Minerals (JTEMIN) is an online only, peer-reviewed, open access companion to Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology. It has a broader scope than the Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology and considers articles on all aspects of trace elements, trace element species and minerals in the widest sense. JTEMIN aims to publish high quality, evidence-based, original research articles, authoritative reviews in areas of special interest as well as preliminary studies, short communications, clinical and technical notes including analytical methods, biochemistry, pathobiochemistry of metabolic processes, molecular biology, biogeochemistry, nutrition, toxicology, environmental toxicology, epidemiology, clinical applications in diagnosis, therapy, food chain and veterinary medicine. JTEMIN is interdisciplinary and bring together different approaches for a diverse readership.
PharmaNutrition is the truly multidisciplinary home for preclinical and clinical researchers in academia and industry, working at or close to the interface of nutritional and pharmacological treatment concepts: where “nutrition” (food, food ingredients, specialized enteral and parenteral nutrition) and “pharma” (pharmacological intervention, clinical studies) meet, including the combination of the two. The journal is published quarterly.Benefits to authors We also provide many author benefits, such as free PDFs, a liberal copyright policy, special discounts on Elsevier publications and much more.

An official Journal of the Society for Redox Biology and Medicine and the Society for Free Radical Research-Europe An Affiliate Journal of the International Society for Free Radical Research (SFRRI)Redox Biology is a forum for novel research, methods and review articles in redox biology in the areas of both health and disease. Acceptable paper types are research articles (short or full communications), methods, mini-reviews, and commentaries in the following areas:NutritionPolyphenolicsCancerMetabolismCardiovascularDiabetesInflammationAgingNeuroscienceCell and Molecular BiologyCell SignalingBioenergeticsRedox Biology will also consider research articles focused in chemical or biochemical mechanisms of redox biology, if these include data demonstrating effects in physiologically relevant models. Studies of uncharacterized complex mixtures of natural products are not a suitable area of focus for the journal. Studies using commercial, undefined kits as the sole or primary assay for redox related changes which are not validated using other methods will not be considered for publication.Redox Biology introduces Graphical Redox Reviews. These reviews will summarize schematically key concepts, established and novel ideas in redox biology which will be accessible to a broad audience and freely downloaded as PowerPoint slides for use in teaching or conference presentations.Graphical Redox Reviews ideally should have a format of 3-5 color schemes with a title, short introductory paragraph, extended figure legends, and include up to 20 selected citations.
