My colleagues and I have created reliable scientific methods for developing some fields of science, and the newest one relates to nutrients (food components) of foods that play a vital role for humans. Nutrients affect human health, and nutrients are mainly obtained through the consumption of foods. Optimal human health cannot be achieved without meeting the needs of some nutrients (positive nutrients) and not exceeding the needs of some nutrients (negative nutrients). Achieving the aims of meeting the needs of positive nutrients and not exceeding the needs of negative nutrients is possible through making informed food choices by employing reliable scientific methods. Despite the progress in various fields of science, the trusted science gained from the existing methods in the field of food choices (in terms of nutrient intakes) is insignificant and is mixed with errors due to the vulnerabilities of existing methods. Food choices in terms of nutrient intakes are made either without using a method or based on methods that are associated with significant vulnerabilities. Therefore, making food choices based on them can lead to uninformed food choices, which can increase the risk of certain chronic diseases and cause huge medical costs. The results of the research of my colleagues and I have led to the creation of reliable scientific methods for making informed food choices in terms of nutrient intakes, which lack the vulnerabilities of existing methods and have significantly increased the trusted science in this field. The created methods are important innovations and undoubtedly the most important achievement in this field.
