Nutritional Foundations^®

The Nutritional Foundations^® Journal is the peer-reviewed student journal of National Nutrition Standard. It is indexed through EBSCO including CINAHL complete, CINHAL ultimate, Index to Chiropractic Literature, and Food Science Source. The journal will focus entirely on research produced by students on nutrition related topics. There are no article processing fees and no costs for students to publish in the journal.

One of the largest obstacles to participating in research is a lack of experience. Where do I start? Who can help? The evolution of healthcare rests upon the evidence provided by research which leads to better understanding of disease. This is the primary reason why all providers should have a natural interest in healthcare research. In appreciating the importance of research in understanding all aspects of disease, clinical research at the student level has never been more valuable and more necessary than before. Students who engage in these activities accelerate their interest in the clinical sciences and receive a more enriching education than those who do not. In addition, faculty report a boost in morale from engaging in research with students. One of the long-term objectives for the journal is to establish a presence in multiple colleges to provide mentorship at the local level. Faculty, we need your help. If you have an interest in providing support to your students for a future article submission or joining our editorial review board, please contact the journal.
