KFN will recruit and accept manuscripts from the Oceania/Asia region, and send them to Dr. Sheldon Hendler and Mary Ann Liebert, Inc. for publication. Manuscripts from the Oceania/Asia region may be directed to Editor-in-Chief Dr. Kun-Young Park at the KFN office at: The Korean Society of Food Science and Nutrition, 424-12, JangJun 2-dong, Geumjung-gu, Busan 609-840, Korea; Telephone: 82-51-512-3168,9; Fax: 82-51-512-3193; E-mail: kfn@chollian.net Manuscripts from the Americas, Africa, and Europe may be directed to Editor-in-Chief Dr. Sheldon Hendler or Managing Editor Ms. Yael Ben-Porat at: Journal of Medicinal Food, 8575 La Jolla Shores Drive, La Jolla, CA 92037; Telephone: 619-246-3445; Fax: 858-459-1812; E-mail: jmedfood@yahoo.com
Manuscripts submitted to Journal of Medicinal Food may not be under consideration for publication elsewhere. All submissions will be acknowledged. Authors should call the Managing Editor if receipt has not been confirmed within 30 days of dispatch.
Full Communications should be presented in the standard format described below.
Short Communications are intended for the presentation of brief observations that do not warrant a full-length text, but also are not preliminary results. Include an abstract; do not use section headings in the body of the text; report methods, results, and discussion in a single section. Citations are identical in style to those of full-length papers, but appropriately abbreviated in number.
Technical Notes are brief scientific observations and methods (preparative, analytical, etc.).
Letters to the Editor can be on any issue relevant to the field. They must be brief (one or two journal pages) and appropriately documented by data. Letters may be addressed to the Editor-in Chief or Associate Editors, and may be subject to review.
Reviews and Perspectives may be solicited by the Editors or submitted independently. Reviews are summaries of developments in medicinal food and nutrition. Perspectives are more representative of an opinion about an area of the field or a direction of research. Both may be subject to peer-review.
Conference Proceedings: Authors wishing to submit conference/workshop summaries should contact the editorial office well in advance of the event to discuss publication potential and obtain guidance on preparation.

The title page should include the authors鈥 names and affiliations, a running title of about 45 characters (including spaces), and the full contact information for the corresponding author (i.e., mailing and/or street address, telephone and fax numbers, and e-mail address.)

Unpublished References:
When data from an unpublished source are presented, supply complete information, e.g., researcher鈥檚 name and location. If work is in press, give the journal in which it is to be published or the publisher. Include 鈥淚n press鈥 in place of publication date.
Tables. Type each table with its title on a separate sheet of paper. Use Arabic numerals to number tables. Each table must stand alone (i.e., contain all necessary information in the caption) and the table itself must be understood independently of the text. Details of experimental conditions should be included in the table footnotes. Table legends and footnotes should be double-spaced. Information that appears in the text should not be repeated in tables, and tables should not contain data that can be given in the text in one or two sentences.
Illustrations. All original line art, graphs, and glossy photographs for halftone illustrations should be high-quality and camera-ready. Photocopies cannot be used for reproduction. All figures should be identified on the back by number and the first author鈥檚 name. Indicate the top of the illustration when not otherwise apparent. Prepare a separate list of figure legends, double-spaced, at the end of the manuscript. Magnifications should be included when appropriate. Figures will not be returned unless requested.
Illustrations may be submitted on disc, clearly labeled with the program used. All images must be formatted as eps or tiff files. (Do not use gif format.) Be sure the disc contains only the required illustrations, each clearly identified. A special fee is assessed for color illustrations. Contact the Publisher for details.
