Special Issue on Plant-Based Foods and Clinical Nutrition

Plant-Based Foods and Clinical Nutrition explores the nutritional, physiological, and clinical implications of plant-based foods and dietary patterns, with attention to their nutritional composition, bioactive compounds, health-promoting properties, and therapeutic applications. The topic includes plant proteins, dietary fiber, phytochemicals, functional foods, nutrient bioavailability, gut microbiota, personalized nutrition, and dietary interventions for chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disorders. It also welcomes research on nutritional assessment, medical nutrition therapy, disease prevention, and the development of plant-based dietary strategies that support human health and clinical outcomes.

In this special issue, we intend to invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles on exploring Plant-Based Foods and Clinical Nutrition. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:

• Plant-based foods
• Clinical nutrition
• Plant-based diets
• Functional foods
• Plant proteins
• Dietary fiber
• Phytochemicals
• Nutrient bioavailability
• Nutritional assessment
• Therapeutic nutrition
• Personalized nutrition
• Gut microbiota
• Nutritional epidemiology
• Chronic disease prevention
• Cardiometabolic health
• Nutritional interventions

Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.
