The National Institute on Aging (NIA) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for randomized controlled clinical trials on long-term effects of nutritional interventions on the progression of risk factors for age-related chronic conditions over the life span and their age of onset. Although considerable information is available on health benefits and risks of a variety of nutritional factors (e.g., macronutrients, overall caloric intake, differing nutrient sources) there remains a need for better understanding of long-term benefits and potential risks of differing nutritional factors and dietary practices to maintain health across the full range of the life span. Rigorous understanding of these effects requires long-term controlled clinical trials of preventive interventions in younger and/or older persons. …
