What Do We Do?

We specialize in designing and carrying out tailored clinical trials to investigate health-related outcomes of functional foods and natural health products to support value-added agriculture, product-specific and novel health claims. In pursuing these activities, we provide unique and intensive research opportunities for University of Guelph undergraduate and graduate students.  In addition to our highly trained personnel, our facilities are capable of anthropometric measures, dietary intake assessments, questionnaires, exercise performance, genomic and metabolite marker analysis, obtaining samples, and endpoint analysis.
