EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF NUTRITION
Scope & Guideline
Advancing Nutrition Science for a Healthier Tomorrow
Introduction
Aims and Scopes
- Nutritional Epidemiology:
The journal publishes studies that explore the relationships between dietary habits, nutrient consumption, and health outcomes. This includes cohort studies, case-control studies, and meta-analyses that provide insights into how nutrition affects various health conditions. - Dietary Interventions and Clinical Trials:
Research involving dietary interventions, such as randomized controlled trials, is a key focus. These studies assess the efficacy of specific diets or dietary components on health outcomes, including weight management, metabolic syndrome, and chronic diseases. - Molecular Nutrition and Biochemical Mechanisms:
The journal encourages investigations into the biochemical mechanisms through which nutrients affect health. This includes studies on metabolism, nutrient bioavailability, and the role of dietary components in disease pathogenesis. - Public Health Nutrition:
Research that addresses public health issues related to diet and nutrition, including population-level dietary assessments, food security, and the impact of nutrition policies on health outcomes. - Nutrition and Gut Microbiota:
Studies examining the interactions between diet and gut microbiota are increasingly published, highlighting the role of the microbiome in health and disease. - Nutritional Genomics:
The journal includes research on how genetic variations influence the response to dietary components, contributing to personalized nutrition strategies.
Trending and Emerging
- Plant-Based Diets:
Research focusing on the health benefits and implications of plant-based diets is increasingly prevalent, highlighting their role in chronic disease prevention and overall health. - Personalized Nutrition:
Emerging studies on personalized nutrition strategies that integrate genetic, metabolic, and lifestyle factors are trending, recognizing that dietary recommendations may need to be tailored to individual needs. - Nutrition and Mental Health:
There is a growing body of research exploring the link between diet and mental health outcomes, including the impact of specific nutrients and dietary patterns on mood and cognitive function. - Sustainable Diets:
Research examining the environmental impacts of dietary choices and the promotion of sustainable eating practices is on the rise, reflecting increasing global awareness of food systems and climate change. - Gut-Brain Axis:
Studies investigating the gut-brain axis, including the effects of diet on gut microbiota and its subsequent impact on neurological health, are gaining traction. - Nutritional Immunology:
Research exploring the relationship between nutrition and immune function, especially in the context of infectious diseases and chronic inflammation, is emerging as a significant area of interest.
Declining or Waning
- Traditional Dietary Patterns:
There has been a noticeable decline in studies focusing on traditional dietary patterns, such as the Mediterranean or Asian diets, possibly due to a growing interest in modern dietary styles or specific nutrient-based approaches. - Simple Nutrient Analysis:
Research centered solely on the effects of individual nutrients, without considering dietary context, is becoming less frequent. This shift reflects a broader recognition of the importance of dietary patterns over single nutrient effects. - Food Processing Studies:
Studies examining the effects of food processing on nutrition and health outcomes seem to be diminishing. As the focus shifts towards whole foods and minimally processed options, interest in highly processed food studies may be decreasing. - Food Insecurity Research:
Although still relevant, the frequency of publications specifically addressing food insecurity has declined, potentially overshadowed by broader public health nutrition topics. - Animal Studies:
Research based exclusively on animal models is becoming less common as the emphasis moves towards human studies and clinical trials that can provide more applicable insights.
