Tufts University Health & Nutrition Letter
Founded in 1983 by Tufts University President Jean Mayer, the Tufts Health and Nutrition Letter is an outreach program of Tufts University and the Friedman School of Nutrition Science & Policy at Tufts.
The goal of the Tufts Health & Nutrition Letter is to provide the consumer with honest, reliable, scientifically authoritative health and nutrition advice that not only can be trusted but can have a direct and often immediate effort on their health. The content of our newsletter is based substantially on the research and expertise of the Gerald J. and Dorothy R. Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy.
This mission is fulfilled by bringing together experts from the areas of clinical nutrition, social and public policy, and biomedicine. Faculty at the school include anthropologists, biomedical scientists, economists, epidemiologists, nutritionists, physicians, political scientists and psychologists who focus on a myriad of issues with the common thread of nutrition and its role in fostering the growth and development of human populations.
Programs of study draw upon the strength of Tufts University’s interdisciplinary approach which involves Tufts’ seven other schools, the Jean Mayer USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging and the Frances Stern Nutrition Center.

Editorial Questions
Our editors want to know your nutrition questions and answers. Each and every comment and/or query is read by our editorial staff, and your suggestions are reviewed regularly to help develop editorial content for the Health & Nutrition Letter. They are an important ingredient to the make-up of the Letter. We regret, however, that we cannot print answers to all questions received nor respond personally to each inquiry.
Questions regarding therapy for individuals, however, should be addressed to a health care professional. The Tufts Health & Nutrition Letter and its staff cannot replace the advice or prescriptions of medical practitioners.
