Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease have threatened human health for a long time and still remain daunting challenges. As consumer demand for preventing chronic diseases increases, natural food products have drawn special attention in the global markets. With the growing interest in food intervention, research has been widely concerned with applying natural food products such as polyphenols, polysaccharides, peptides, and probiotics in chronic disease prevention and investigating their mechanisms and will attract much more attention in the future.
Therefore, this Special Issue aims to present a collection of studies focused on the current advances about the topic ‘Intervention Effect of Natural Food Products on Chronic Diseases’. We kindly invite you to submit original review/research articles with novel ideas/concepts related to this topic. Research addressing compositional aspects, in vitro and in vivo investigations, and efficacy evaluation in intervention studies is particularly welcomed.
