Featured Reviews on Nutrition to Optimise Human Health

Dear Colleagues,

In recent years, the adoption of the Western diet has been associated with the development of multiple non-communicable chronic diseases such as inflammatory bowel diseases, gastrointestinal cancers, irritable bowel syndrome, diabetes, chronic liver diseases, etc. In this context, numerous animal and human studies have been conducted into the influence of different types of nutritional interventions on the onset/prevention of these gastrointestinal chronic diseases. New research has also shed light on dietary strategies to alleviate gastrointestinal disorders, restore healthy gastrointestinal conditions and/or optimize pharmacological/oncological treatments. Various nutritional patterns and dietary factors, such as low-FODMAP diets, ketogenic or plant-based diets, nutraceuticals, functional foods, novel foods, bioactive compounds, and prebiotics have been recently explored. This Special Issue aims to describe the state of the art of these topics in order to provide nutritional dietary guidelines for the prevention and treatment of these chronic gastrointestinal diseases.

We invite clinicians and researchers to submit systematic reviews, meta-analyses, or relevant narrative reviews to this Special Issue of Nutrients entitled “Featured Reviews on Nutrition to Optimise Human Health”.

Guest Editor
