The efficacy of dietary measures and the role of specific food and food ingredients for the prevention of diet-related diseases, especially cardiovascular and metabolic diseases, belongs to my focus of research. My interest is dedicated to plant-based foods, in particular cocoa, and cocoa ingredients which may be responsible for these effects, e.g. flavanols such epicatechin. Another focus refers to clinical nutrition, especially nutrient deficiencies, from which morbidly obese patients with indication for bariatric surgery and patients in postoperative state are concerned. Nutrient deficiencies might impair clinical outcome. Which measures may compensate nutrient deficiencies and may in turn improve clinical outcome? My methodological approach and long-term expertise are well designed human intervention to detect efficient dietary measures and causal relationships.
