Nenad Naumovski completed his Bachelor of Human Nutrition (Honours) at the University of Newcastle (UoN), Ourimbah, NSW, Australia with an interest in biomarkers associated with the development of atherosclerosis (plasma thiols, B vitamins), dietary intake, and the cognitive functioning of older people residing in a retirement village. He also earned a PhD in Food Science in which he investigated the cholesterol-lowering properties of the major green tea catechin, epigallocatehin gallate (EGCG), in animal models of hypercholesterolemia, and also determined the pharmacokinetic and cholesterol-lowering properties of EGCG in humans. His current research interests involve healthy ageing trajectories and the nexus between the areas of plant bioactives and nutraceuticals, their consumption, and effects on psycho-cardiometabolic markers in humans.
