Topic Information

Dear Colleagues,

Physical exercise and nutrition play crucial roles as environmental factors that can positively impact physiological responses, such as musculoskeletal development; promoting and sustaining peak bone density, muscle mass, and strength throughout the life course; and improving cardiometabolic health. Furthermore, physical activity and nutrition are important strategies to prevent and improve mental health across different populations (children, teenagers, adults, and the elderly) and in various conditions (sedentary individuals, trained individuals, athletes) or among people with metabolic and neurodegenerative diseases, such as mental disorders. In this Topic, we welcome cross-sectional studies, longitudinal studies, randomized controlled trials, narrative and systematic reviews, and meta-analyses related to the acute and chronic effects of exercise, with or without nutritional intervention, on physiological and psychological responses in diverse populations.

Preprints.org is a multidisciplinary platform offering a preprint service designed to facilitate the early sharing of your research. It supports and empowers your research journey from the very beginning.

MDPI Topics is collaborating with Preprints.org and has established a direct connection between MDPI journals and the platform. Authors are encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity by posting their preprints at Preprints.org prior to publication:

  1. Share your research immediately: disseminate your ideas prior to publication and establish priority for your work.
  2. Safeguard your intellectual contribution: Protect your ideas with a time-stamped preprint that serves as proof of your research timeline.
  3. Boost visibility and impact: Increase the reach and influence of your research by making it accessible to a global audience.
  4. Gain early feedback: Receive valuable input and insights from peers before submitting to a journal.
  5. Ensure broad indexing: Web of Science (Preprint Citation Index), Google Scholar, Crossref, SHARE, PrePubMed, Scilit and Europe PMC.
