Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We invite you to collaborate on a Special Issue titled "Prevention and Treatment of Diet-Related Diseases Among Children and Adolescents". Recent research highlights the crucial role of adequate nutrition in preventing and treating diet-related diseases. Early dietary intervention can significantly improve the prognosis of diseases such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, metabolic disorders, food allergies, and autoimmune diseases.
This planned Special Issue aims to create a reliable and up-to-date collection of knowledge to support healthcare professionals, including doctors, dietitians, and nutrition specialists. We encourage you to share your clinical and scientific expertise, present effective dietary therapy strategies, and discuss the latest nutritional guidelines.
We rely on your expert insight and valuable contributions. Your articles will play a crucial role in spreading knowledge and support for professionals working with the health of our youngest patients.
