The front cover this month features work by Yaakov Nahmias and co-workers from Jerusalem, Israel. In their review, they present the growing evidence that flavonoids affect drug, lipid, and carbohydrate metabolism through nuclear receptor binding. Understanding the pathways in which these natural compounds alter metabolic networks provides a wealth of possibilities for pharmaceutical and dietary modulation of metabolism.
