Nutrition Status and Health

Dear Colleagues,

In this Special Issue of Nutrients, we would like to bring together papers dealing with the topic of the effect of nutritional status on physical, mental, or social health outcomes. In broad terms, the study of nutritional status may include issues about nutrient or food intake, dietary patterns, anthropometric measures, as well as biomarkers.

The beneficial effects of an adequate nutritional status against chronic diseases have been an object of study over the last decade. However, many questions concerning the crucial role of nutritional status on health at different stages of life remain open. Therefore, further research is required to provide strong evidence on the association between nutritional status and health outcomes.

We welcome different types of manuscript submissions, including original research articles and up-to-date reviews (systematic reviews and meta-analyses).

Potential topics may include but are not limited to the associations between macronutrients and micronutrients intake, dietary patterns, nutritional biomarker and anthropometric outcomes and cancer, cardiovascular disease, mental health, obesity, high blood pressure, quality of life, sensory processing profile, reproductive outcomes, and inflammatory bowel disease, among others.

Dr. Eva Maria Navarrete-Munoz
