Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Recent advances in food and nutrition include the utilization of foodomics to enhance food safety and quality, as well as combat fraud and understand the molecular impact of food bioactive composition on health. The global climate emergency is endangering food supply chains, especially in developing regions, and diversifying the ingredient sourcing options, waste valorisation and valid options for sustainable agro-economical practices are needed to provide safe and healthy foods for optimal nutrition.
The approaches in food and nutrition for the future require interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary actions, both in investigation and innovation. The areas of interest are multiple, including genetics, personalised nutrition, bioinformatics, biomarkers, individual and public health, dietary needs and recommendations, etc. The interoperability in food and nutrition also requires sustainable developments to secure the resilience of food systems. The aim is to understand the complex relationships between food choices, health and well-being throughout the life cycle. Collaborative research efforts are crucial to ensure universal access to sustainable healthy diets for eradicating malnutrition, and maintaining a healthy population and planet.
