The link in the tweet is to this paper.

Nutrimetabonomics: Applications for Nutritional Sciences, with Specific Reference to Gut Microbial Interactions - Annual Review of Food Science and Technology, 4(1):

Wow. Nutrimetabonomics. In a paper. And amazingly they had a conference on this too. 11th-13th April 2012- First Nutrimetabonomics Workshop to consider ... I do not even know what to say. This is NOT a good omics word. It is definitely a bad bad bad omics word. A very bad one (note - the field might be interesting .. the word however is bad).
