Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Achieving and maintaining good health is an increasingly sought-after goal, yet this is often difficult to attain. Among the many factors influencing this objective, sleep quality and nutritional status are increasingly recognized as key components that contribute to physical, mental, and psychological well-being. New, effective, and efficient strategies are required to improve and optimize sleep quality and nutritional status, thereby fostering positive health outcomes.
This Special Issue aims to highlight original research, reviews, and case reports, as well as hypotheses and theories, that can offer new insights and directions for either improving or maintaining both sleep quality and nutritional status. Contributions may focus on the general population or specific target groups, such as individuals with certain medical conditions, distinct age groups, or those subjected to particular socio-economic, cultural, or health conditions. Finally, the topics may encompass all three orders of health prevention and care.
