Nutrition is central to preventing and managing gastrointestinal (GI) and liver diseases, yet dietary advice remains generic. Conditions such as IBD, IBS, MASLD, celiac disease, and GERD are strongly diet‑influenced. Conventional personalized nutrition fails to account for metabolic, genetic, and microbiome variability. AI integrates genomics, microbiome, metabolic markers, and real‑time dietary tracking to generate individualized recommendations. AI tools are advancing dietary assessment, condition‑specific optimization, and continuous monitoring via wearables and natural language processing. Challenges remain: lack of standardized protocols, bias, privacy concerns, limited clinical validation, and underrepresentation of nutrition in AI applications. Opportunities include federated learning, real‑world validation, and regulatory frameworks. This narrative review synthesizes literature from 2015–2025.Nutrition is central to preventing and managing gastrointestinal (GI) and liver diseases, yet dietary advice remains generic.

Canadian Science Publishing (CSP), Canada's largest independent not-for-profit scholarly publisher, is proud to announce the launch Avancées francophones en sciences et en génie, a new collection of French-language scientific articles published across nine internationally recognized CSP journals: Applied Physiology, Nutrition and Metabolism; Biochemistry and Cell Biology; Botany; Canadian Journal of Chemistry; Canadian Journal of Forest Research; Canadian Journal of Plant Science; Canadian Journal of Zoology; Drone Systems and Applications; and FACETS. The articles are made available on the Érudit platform, free of charge to both authors and readers. Funded by the Fonds de recherche du Québec (FRQ), this Diamond Open Access collection is designed to strengthen the creation, dissemination and mobilization of scientific knowledge in French.  

Researchers at Brown University have discovered a molecular link between hunger and the formation of “reward” memories that play a role in alcohol addiction. The insight could inform strategies for treatment and prevention, the scientists say.
