The Role of Personalized Nutrition and Functional Foods in Modern Society

Many societies across the Globe are currently faced with major behavioural and demographic changes and various challenges associated with them. Besides a spectrum of modern-day unhealthy habits, such as junk food and lack of exercise, these societies are also confronted with rapidly ageing populations in need of their own, specific habits and habitats. In addition to the traditional remedies of “healthy eating” and more exercise, a more specific, individual, and indeed personalized nutrition may contribute... see more

Translational Advances in Nutraceuticals: From Discovery and Mechanisms to Clinical and Societal Applications

Nutraceuticals have emerged as vital contributors to health promotion, disease prevention, and sustainable nutrition, offering opportunities that bridge food, medicine, and public health. Despite significant progress in the isolation and characterization of bioactive compounds, challenges remain in translating laboratory findings into clinical practice and real-world applications. This thematic issue will highlight recent advances across the nutraceutical research spectrum, encompassing discovery and structural characterization of secondary metabolites, mechanistic insights into biological activity, evaluation of biomarkers, and... see more

Science-Driven Nutraceuticals: From Traditional Use to Targeted Therapy

This special issue aims to bridge the gap between traditional knowledge and modern scientific validation of nutraceuticals. It focuses on the transformation of traditional food-based remedies and plant-derived compounds into targeted therapeutic agents backed by pharmacological, biochemical, and clinical evidence. The issue seeks to highlight innovative approaches that translate ethnomedicinal wisdom into science-driven, disease-specific nutraceutical applications. The issue will cover interdisciplinary research that integrates ethnopharmacology, functional food science, pharmacognosy, and clinical nutrition to explore how... see more
