Precision Dietary Management of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease
This special issue belongs to the section “Nutritional Epidemiology“.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a growing global health concern, with a high prevalence worldwide largely due to poor dietary habits. Precision nutrition offers a promising approach to address the complex interplay between diet, genetics, metabolism, and gut microbiota in NAFLD management.
This Special Issue aims to explore the latest research on personalized dietary strategies for NAFLD prevention and treatment. We invite original research and reviews focusing on (1) the role of precision nutrition in understanding NAFLD pathophysiology and individual variability, (2) the impact of dietary patterns, nutrients, and bioactive compounds on NAFLD risk and progression, (3) innovative tools for monitoring dietary habits, food behaviors, and physical activity in NAFLD populations, (4) the application of nutrigenomics, metabolomics, and microbiota profiling to tailor dietary interventions for NAFLD prevention and control, and (5) the development of precision nutrition frameworks to implement effective dietary strategies at the population level. By integrating advances in multi-omics technologies and deep phenotyping, this Special Issue seeks to advance precision nutrition approaches for NAFLD and improve public health outcomes.
