The guide in conducting systematic literature reviews was developed for the revision of the 4th edition of the Nordic nutrition recommendations (NNR5 project) and is now being published at the project website (link to the SLR guide in the left hand column). The guide was devised by the NNR 5 working group and the aim is to give instructions on how to conduct systematic literature reviews for the experts engaged in the NNR 5 project.

The guide is based on other handbooks and guides and other relevant literature specified in the reference list. It is a working document and has been submitted to and approved of by the NNR 5 reference group that consists of senior experts representing various fields of nutrition science, both within and outside the Nordic countries.
