Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Caffeine is one of the most widely consumed beverages worldwide, and is found in many different food sources. Given what we know of the bioactive nature of caffeine, the study of the effects of caffeine consumption on various health conditions is imperative to elucidate its effects in a range of health conditions. Therefore, we are pleased to invite you to submit an article investigating the effects of caffeine on health.
The aim of this Special Issue is to present recent advancements in the understanding of the effects caffeine consumption has on the prevention and treatment of human health conditions. In this Special Issue, original research articles and reviews are welcome. Research topics may include but are not limited to the following:
- Review articles outlining the latest evidence for beneficial or detrimental effects of caffeine on human health;
- The evaluation of caffeine on biomarkers of chronic disease in humans;
- The evaluation of caffeine in animal models of disease;
- In vitro mechanistic studies investigating caffeine’s role in human health;
- Epidemiological studies investigating the effects of caffeine on human health.
I look forward to receiving your contributions.
