Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The interconnection between nutrition and the immune system has been an area of growing interest in recent years. As scientific understanding expands, it becomes increasingly evident that nutrition can significantly impact the development and progression of immune-related conditions, spanning from cancer to inflammatory disorders and autoimmune diseases. We encourage submissions that delve into the molecular mechanisms through which nutrition influences the immune response, innovative nutritional interventions that hold promise for patient management, and evidence-based studies highlighting the effects of specific dietary components on immune-mediated diseases.
This Special Issue seeks to foster collaboration between researchers, healthcare practitioners, and nutrition experts to bridge the gap between scientific knowledge and patient care. By sharing novel insights and evidence-based practices, we hope to pave the way for the development of personalized nutritional approaches in the prevention and treatment of immune-mediated diseases.
We invite authors to submit original research articles, reviews, meta-analysis, case studies, and clinical trials that contribute to a deeper understanding of the relationship between nutrition and immune health.
Dr. Elena Niccolai
Guest Editor
