Public Health Nutrition

Public health nutrition focuses on promoting healthy dietary behaviours, preventing diet-related diseases, and addressing nutritional disparities within populations. By implementing evidence-based strategies and policies, we can create supportive environments that facilitate healthy eating habits and improve population health outcomes. The Public Health Nutrition special collection aims to address key public health challenges related to nutrition and food security. By examining the determinants of dietary behaviours and implementing interventions at the community and policy levels, we can reduce the burden of diet-related diseases and promote health equity for all. We welcome submissions that explore the determinants of dietary behaviours, interventions to promote healthy eating habits, and strategies to address nutritional disparities and improve population health outcomes. Types of Papers:

• Epidemiological studies investigating the association between dietary factors and the risk of chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, or cardiovascular disease.
• Community-based interventions targeting diet-related behaviours and promoting access to healthy food environments.
• Policy analyses examining the impact of nutrition policies and interventions on population-level health outcomes.
• Evaluations of public health programs or initiatives aimed at improving dietary quality, nutritional status, or food security among vulnerable populations.
