Abstract

The Acta Scientific Nutritional Health Journal continues to serve as a premier platform for disseminating cutting-edge research addressing global nutrition challenges. Our journal critically examines the full spectrum of nutritional science from energy metabolism, macronutrients, and micronutrients to nutritional microbiology, public health nutrition, and emerging fields like culinology and sports nutrition. This comprehensive scope positions us uniquely to address the complex interplay between food systems, human health, and environmental sustainability.
