Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Metabolic and nutritional disorders have been emerging as major conditions affecting a huge percentage of the population, and their prevalence is still rising rapidly, which accounts for related health problems with a higher incidence of all-cause mortality globally.
This Special Issue of Nutrients will focus on all aspects of metabolic and nutritional disorders. It includes research at the molecular, cellular, and organismal levels, highlighting the relevance of diet in metabolic dysfunctions, notably the role of nutrients or dietary compounds in molecular mechanisms in the disorders of human nutrition and metabolism.
We aim to publish original research articles and up-to-date review articles covering the broad and multidisciplinary fields of human nutrition and metabolism. This Special Issue, “Metabolic and Nutritional Disorders”, welcomes submissions of studies on, but not limited to, obesity, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, hyperlipidemia, other body fat disorders, the molecular and cellular biology of nutrients, foods and dietary supplements, and macro- as well as micronutrients, including vitamins and minerals. Topics related to molecular and cellular metabolism, nutrient sensing, and nutrient–gene interactions are also of interest. Other areas of interest include the effects of hormones, models of metabolic function, macronutrient interactions, outcomes of changes in diet, pathophysiology, etc.
