Introduction

The Nutritional Research and Educational Foundation, Inc, was set up in April 1994 to foster research in the areas of nutrition and cancer. Under the direction of Nicholas J. Gonzalez, M.D., it sponsors research and literature review. (Dr. Gonzalez's Website)

The Foundation was originally set up to administer a grant from Nestle for the completion of a pilot study on pancreatic cancer. That project was completed in 1998 and subsequently published in the peer-reviewed journal Nutrition and Cancer in 1999.

The Foundation also maintains the catalogue of the collection of journal articles of Dr. Gonzalez, including many older articles that are difficult to find.

Other plans of the Foundation include support for research and composition of review articles, collection of reference materials, and education of medical professionals and the public. The Foundation also intends, if adequate funding is available, to begin testing aspects of Dr. Gonzalez's nutritional regimen in animal models of cancer. For further information, see Future Projects.
