Nutrition has long fascinated philosophers and scholars throughout
history, transcending various scientific fields and cultural
landscapes. Over time, a substantial body of knowledge has been
accumulated, resulting in significant
advancements in combating diseases associated with specific
dietary elements. However, in recent years, there has been a
concerning rise in chronic illnesses, largely
attributed to poor dietary habits and changing lifestyles.
Conditions such as heart disease, hypertension, diabetes, cancer,
and cognitive impairments are increasingly prevalent, closely
correlating with patterns of excessive consumption of sugar,
unhealthy fats, and food additives. In response to this pressing
challenge, our research endeavors are guided by a singular mission:
to formulate personalized dietary approaches not only for disease
prevention but also for enhancing overall physical, mental, and
cognitive well-being.

Our investigation into a healthy
diet covers a multitude of scientific disciplines, with a particular
focus on the components of basic food science research. Basic food
science research is the foundational study of the properties,
composition, and behavior of food, encompassing various scientific
disciplines such as biology, chemistry, physics, and engineering to
understand the fundamental aspects of nutrition and health.
In addition to examining the
fundamental aspects of food science, we aim to identify specific
nutrients that can positively impact health outcomes. Within that
framework, our research integrates advanced technologies and
interdisciplinary approaches to better understand how different
foods and dietary patterns can prevent chronic disease and promote
longevity.
