Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce our call for papers for a Special Issue of Nutrients on the topic of “The Relationship between Sleep, Dietary Patterns and Human Health”. This Special Issue will explore the intricate connections among sleep, dietary habits, and overall health, highlighting the multifaceted interactions that contribute to wellbeing and disease prevention.

Scope and Topics

We invite researchers, clinicians, and scholars to submit original research articles, reviews, case studies, and commentaries that address, but are not limited to, the following topics:

  • The impact of sleep duration and quality on dietary behaviors and nutritional choices;
  • The role of diet in influencing sleep patterns and sleep disorders;
  • Mechanisms linking sleep and diet with metabolic health, cardiovascular health, mental health, and immune function;
  • Interventions targeting sleep and diet to improve health outcomes;
  • Longitudinal studies examining the bidirectional relationships among sleep, diet, and health;
  • The influence of socio-economic, cultural, and environmental factors on sleep and dietary patterns;
  • Sleep and diet in specific populations (e.g., children, adolescents, elderly, and shift workers);
  • The role of the microbiota in mediating the relationship between sleep and diet;
  • Innovative methodologies for studying sleep, diet, and health interactions.

We look forward to your contributions to this Special Issue, which we believe will significantly advance our understanding of how sleep and dietary patterns interact to influence human health.
