She has contributed to studies on carbohydrate restriction, intermittent fasting, and the effects of vegetarian/vegan diets on cardiovascular risk. Key collaborators include Serena Tonstad and Eli Heggen.
Research interests span clinical nutrition, eating disorders, and the metabolic impacts of dietary patterns. Her work frequently employs randomized controlled trials to evaluate intervention efficacy. Notable studies include investigations into the ASKED trial for appetite suppression via carbohydrate restriction (2024) and the PED-t trial analyzing eating disorder treatment outcomes (2023).
Publications emphasize translational research linking dietary strategies to cardiometabolic health, including analyses of kiwifruit's blood pressure effects (2015) and low-carbohydrate diets' impact on LDL cholesterol (2018). She contributes to the University of Oslo's Diet and Oxidative Stress research group, focusing on nutrition's role in chronic disease prevention.
