Nutrition plays a pivotal role in human health and overall well-being, serving as the foundation for life-sustaining physiological functions. A robust understanding of the various indicators that accurately reflect an individual's nutritional status is instrumental in addressing global health challenges. In recent years, there has been growing recognition of the utility and necessity of integrating multiple indicators to comprehensively evaluate, monitor, and improve nutritional status on both an individual and population level. From biomarkers reflecting micronutrient status to dietary patterns indicative of overall dietary quality, a holistic approach to nutritional assessment is essential for informing evidence-based policies and interventions to improve public health.
This research aims to bring together cutting-edge research on various nutritional indicators, encompassing both traditional metrics and emerging markets, and evaluating the impact of nutrition interventions on health outcomes. In addition, it aims to promote interdisciplinary dialogue and collaboration between researchers, professionals, and policymakers in nutritional science.
We invite contributions that delve into various aspects of nutritional indicators in different populations. Topics of interest of interest include, but are not limited to:
• New biomarkers in assessing nutritional status.
• Advances in dietary assessment methodologies.
• Application of nutritional indicators in diverse populations and environments.
• Integrative approaches to nutritional assessment, considering genetic, environmental and lifestyle factors.
Keywords:
nutrition screening, nutritional assesment, nutritional indicators, nutritional markers, Nutrition methadology, metabolic care, Malnutrition, biomarkers
Important Note:
All contributions to this Research Topic must be within the scope of the section and journal to which they are submitted, as defined in their mission statements. Frontiers reserves the right to guide an out-of-scope manuscript to a more suitable section or journal at any stage of peer review.
