36. Institut National de la Recherche Agronomique (INRA)
Paris, France
A major goal of the Unité de Nutrition Humaine (INRA Clermont-Ferrand) is to explain the
key role played by nutrients and foods in the prevention of ageing-associated diseases.
Within EURRECA, the laboratory participates in two different tasks:
- the assessment of nutritional phenotype to quantify the variability in nutrient needs and status through a metabolomics approach (IA3);
- reviewing methods for measuring the status in some micronutrients, and more particularly phytochemicals and magnesium (RA 1.2)
