Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to invite you to contribute to the Special Issue of the journal Nutrients on the subject area of “Nutritional Surveys and Assessment of Eating Disorders”.
This research topic aims to explore emerging and precise tools for evaluating the nutrition condition of people with eating disorders. In fact, a precise tool for nutrition assessment is recognized as a cornerstone of assessing the actual nutrition condition of people with eating disorders.
The prevalence of eating disorders around the world is incredibly high, including under or over consumption of food, and inappropriate matching of food items. Mant chronic diseases are preventable and controlled through changes in eating disorders. How to precisely evaluate nutrition intake is important in identifying eating disorders. Currently, the majority of nutrition assessment is generally conducted using traditional survey tools, such as dietary recall, food record, and food frequency questionnaire. With the development of food industry technology and artificial intelligence, increasing innovative technologies, including intelligent ordering systems and visual ordering systems, are considered to be important tools in precise nutrition survey and assessment.
This Special Issue is aimed at providing selected contributions to address this topic with a particular emphasis on how to precisely evaluate nutrition intake using innovative technologies or methods for identifying eating disorders.
Potential topics include but are not limited to the following:
- Innovative methods employed for nutrition survey and nutrition assessment;
- How to identify eating disorders using innovational technologies;
- Comparison of dietary survey methods with traditional and emerging tools;
- Selection of dietary evaluation methods for different populations;
- Dietary pattern transition and its relationship to the development of chronic diseases.
