Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to highlight current advances in the field of nutrigenomics, with a particular focus on gene–diet interactions and their role in the prevention of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and endocrine-related disorders. Personalized nutrition, guided by individual genetic and microbiome profiles, offers a promising approach to improving metabolic health and reducing the burden of chronic diseases. We welcome original research, reviews, and translational studies that explore molecular mechanisms, clinical applications, and population-based strategies integrating genomics with dietary interventions. This Special Issue focuses on advanced personalized dietary solutions that support precision health and disease prevention through an interdisciplinary approach.
