Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The journal of Nutrients invites you to submit manuscripts for a Special Edition on “Metabolic Changes in Response to Habitual Dietary Exposure and Physical Activity”. In view of the COVID-19 pandemic and potential dramatic effects on habitual diet and physical activity participation, we call for submissions which integrate the questions of altered physical activity and habitual diet selection and their effects on metabolism. With the overwhelming problems of obesity and sedentarism in mind, this Special Issue will focus on impacts of reduced physical activity and habitual malnutrition on metabolism but also invites articles improving metabolism by selected physical activity approaches in face of malnutrition. Articles are invited which report data from investigations, including observational and experimental studies, concerning the influence of habitual diet alterations and physical activity on all aspects of metabolism—from metabolomics and cell signaling to energy expenditure. This may include observation of food preferences in reduced physical activity situations, but also targeted physical activity interventions which monitor diet and metabolic alterations. We look forward to exciting submissions and thank all contributors for their support of this Special Issue.
Dr. Hans-Peter Kubis
Guest Editor
