Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent years have brought a marked increase in interest in the relationships between health, nutrition and eating disorders, underscoring the important role of dietary strategies in diagnosis, therapy and long-term patient support. Growing evidence shows that nutritional therapy is an essential complement to psychological and medical interventions, paving the way for more comprehensive and effective treatment approaches. Increasing attention is also being paid to eating disorders in athletes, where nutritional challenges and performance pressures create unique diagnostic and therapeutic needs.
I am honored to invite you to submit your work to the Special Issue of Nutrients entitled ‘Advances in Eating Disorders: Nutritional Perspectives’.
The aim of this Issue is to gather the latest scientific findings on the role of nutrition in the etiology, course, treatment and recovery processes associated with eating disorders. We welcome submissions addressing, among others, nutritional risk factors, metabolic and micronutrient disturbances, dietary interventions, behavioral-nutritional therapies and long-term nutritional consequences in conditions such as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, binge-eating disorder and ARFID.
We look forward to contributions that expand both theoretical and practical knowledge, linking nutrition science with clinical approaches in the field of eating disorders.
