My research and academic interests lie in the field of nutrition science, with a focus on understanding the complex relationships between diet and human health. I am particularly interested in human nutrition, exploring how macronutrient and micronutrient intake influence metabolic functions and overall well-being. A key area of my research is nutrition and inflammation, investigating how dietary components modulate inflammatory pathways and their role in chronic diseases. This extends to diet therapy, where I examine the use of tailored nutritional interventions to manage and prevent conditions like cancer, obesity, diabetes, and autoimmune disorders. I am also passionate about functional foods, exploring bioactive compounds in foods that provide health benefits beyond basic nutrition, particularly their role in disease prevention. Additionally, my research focuses on nutrition and cancer, particularly investigating the dietary factors that contribute to cancer risk and the potential of nutrition in cancer therapy. Overall, my work integrates these areas to develop evidence-based dietary strategies for improving health and preventing disease
