Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The intricate interactions between host nutrition and the gut microbiota play an essential role in regulating host metabolism. The gut microbiota depends on the host intake of nutrients for their own survival. In turn, many gut microbes directly participate in the digestive process, producing various nutrients/metabolites involved in the host metabolism and biology process. Additiionally, individual differences in postprandial metabolic responses to diets may be influenced by a combination of host and microbiome features. Gut-microbiome-based precision nutrition offers promising advancements in the control and treatment of disease at the individual level.
This Special Issue aims to present cutting-edge research on nutrition–microbiome interaction in human metabolism. We encourage submissions from microbiome-based nutritional studies, including epidemiological and animal research, that have identified key microbes and microbial metabolites as potential targets for dietary interventions to support and maintain a healthy human metabolism. Potential topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
- Impacts of diet/nutrition on the gut microbiome and human metabolism;
- Effects of diet–microbiome interactions on human metabolism;
- Gut-microbiome-based precision nutrition.
We look forward to receiving your contributions.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Nutrients is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2900 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
