Abstract: Basic science has been the wellspring of advances in technology in everything from cellular phones to nutrient-fortified foods. Biochemistry and food technology afford new techniques that enrich nutritional science and aid in the fight against malnutrition. Bionutrition, the term used to describe the application of these techniques, can be the source of innovations that will help eradicate malnutrition globally. Which areas of bionutrition research are most likely to yield tomorrow's breakthroughs? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
