Nutrition and Glucose Homeostasis—2nd Edition

Dear Colleagues,

The nutritional management of blood glucose levels is a strategic target in the control of hyperglycemia.  Chronic hyperglycemia can induce inflammation, insulin resistance, oxidative stress, and endothelial dysfunction, among others. All this can trigger diseases such as type 2 diabetes and its complications or cardiovascular diseases. Glucose homeostasis (GH) and nutrition play a crucial role not only in disease pathogenesis and control, but also in human aging. Expanding knowledge about GH in relation to both situations through diet is key on a global level. For these reasons, this Special Issue welcomes original research articles presenting quantitative or qualitative data, but also reviews that highlight the core values of GH: disease-preventing and disease-treating, health-promoting, basic metabolism knowledge and the encouragement of healthy aging.

Considering the success of the previous Special Issue, "Nutrition and Glucose Homeostasis", we are pleased to announce that we are launching a second Special Issue on this topic. This Special Issue on “Nutrition and Glucose Homeostasis—2nd Edition” will continue to provide nutrition professionals with clear and updated evidence on glucose homeostasis.
