Too much iron: New @CornellCHE research shows that people of East Asian ancestry have greater risk of elevated iron stores than those of Northern European ancestry, putting them at higher risk of heart disease and other conditions. @AJCNutrition@lreileynews.cornell.edu/stories/202…
Excited to share findings from my PhD work published in @AJCNutrition! As Dr. Hennigar noted in his editorial—“Findings from this study reframe how we think about dietary Fe requirements and build evidence for more precise Fe intake and supplementation guidelines”. Links below!👇
In a new paper in @AJCNutrition, the directors of the NIH Office of Nutrition Research, @NINR & @NIH_ODS and I present our vision for holistic, multidisciplinary research across the continuum of human nutrition & highlight our ICOs’ efforts in this area. bit.ly/4iIjmGi

Had a great convo on 'AJCN In Press' w @stableisotope & Dr Shulman @bcm_gihep abt their recent paper covering the challenges of feeding preterm infants, the role of cow's milk-based preterm nutritional products & concerns abt their future availability @AJCNutrition#GITwitter
Neonatology and the care of preterm babies is at-risk for a major crisis if it becomes impossible to obtain or use preterm formula products. Human milk is always our best option, especially mother's own milk, but older, larger and complex care infants need specialized products.
What would happen in the United States if there were no cow milk-based preterm infant nutritional products: Historical perspective and evaluation of nutrient-related challenges - The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition ajcn.nutrition.org/article/S…
Thank you @stableisotope
