Abstract
On 16 September 2014, a systematic literature review spanning more than 230 papers over 30 years was published in Advances in Nutrition, an international peer-reviewed journal of the American Society of Nutrition1. The review, The Benefits of Breakfast Cereal Consumption: A Systematic Review of the Evidence Base, is the first scientific review commissioned by the Australian Breakfast Cereal Manufacturers Forum, a member-funded forum of the Australian Food and Grocery Council. Conducted by Professor Peter Williams, Honorary Professorial Fellow at University of Wollongong and Adjunct Professor of Nutrition and Dietetics at the University of Canberra, the review is the first time the evidence relating to breakfast cereal and its impact on healthy diets, body weight, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease and bowel health has been systematically assessed using the stringent National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) criteria.*
