Nutrition research increasingly utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) models. However, inadequate modeling processes can lead to misleading results and ethical concerns. This tutorial identifies frequently omitted best practices in statistical modeling and their application to ML models in nutrition research. It provides a checklist and guiding principles to help nutrition researchers develop, evaluate, and implement AI/ML models ethically and effectively, mitigating potential bias and ensuring reproducible results.
