The effect of nutrition on male life history traits in humans

该项目将为进化生物学中的基本问题提供答案，同时确定有益于人类健康和福祉的饮食成分。利用纵向公共卫生数据库、RAINE研究和营养生态学领域的理论框架，该项目将提供关于营养如何影响人类关键生活史特征的新知识，包括免疫功能、生殖健康、外貌和健康老龄化。对饮食如何影响动物这些生活史特征的系统文献综述，以及关于饮食对家鼠(一种与人类相似的实验室物种)健康和生殖影响的实验研究，将补充Raine的研究结果。

This project will provide answers to fundamental questions in evolutionary biology while identifying diet compositions that will benefit human health and well-being. Using a longitudinal public-health database, the Raine Study, and a theoretical framework from the field of Nutritional Ecology, the project will provide new knowledge on how nutrition affects key life-history traits in humans including immune function, reproductive health, physical appearance, and healthy ageing. A systematic literature review on how diet impacts these life-history traits in animals generally, and an experimental study of the effect of diet on health and reproduction in the house mouse (a lab analog species for humans) will complement the Raine Study findings.
