Food & Function expects a clear link to biological/physiological function, not composition alone. ## Manuscript structure Title → Author list & affiliations → Abstract → Introduction → Results and discussion → Experimental (methods placed after results, RSC convention) → Conclusions → Conflicts of interest → Acknowledgements → References. A **table-of-contents (TOC) graphic + one-sentence TOC entry** is required. - **Abstract:** concise, unstructured (~150–200 words). - **Experimental section:** after Results & Discussion (RSC style). - **Conflicts of interest statement:** mandatory (state "There are no conflicts to declare" if none). ## Reference style **RSC style: superscript numbers** in order of citation; numbered reference list. Journal names abbreviated, year bold, volume italic, first page only. Example: > 1 A. B. Author and C. D.
