Reference excerpt

Nutrients is a peer-reviewed open-access scientific journal publishing reviews, regular research papers, and short communications on all aspects of nutrition. It was established in 2009 and is published by MDPI. Until September 2018, the editor-in-chief was Jonathan Buckley of the University of South Australia. In 2018, Buckley and the other nine senior editorial board members resigned, claiming that MDPI "pressured them to accept manuscripts of mediocre quality and importance." The current editors-in-chief are Maria Luz Fernandez (University of Connecticut) and Lluis Serra-Majem (University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria). The journal is affiliated with the Asia Pacific Nutrigenomics Nutrigenetics Organisation, European Sport Nutrition Society, Italian Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology and Nutrition, Nutrition Society of New Zealand, Ocular Wellness & Nutrition Society, Società Italiana di Scienze dell’Alimentazione, Spanish Nutrition Society, and the Spanish Society of Community Nutrition.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Nutrients (journal)

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Nutrients (journal) claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In science, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Nutrients (journal) before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Nutrients (journal) ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Nutrients (journal)

In research: Nutrients (journal) appears in science research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Nutrients (journal) in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Nutrients (journal) is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics Academic journals established in 2009, English-language journals, MDPI academic journals, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Nutrients (journal) outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
