Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Inflammation plays a crucial role in the development of a wide array of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, neurodegenerative diseases, and cancer. Dysfunctional adipose tissue is a common source of prolonged systemic inflammation and underpins mechanisms of disease development linked to obesity. Exercise and or nutrition modification are important therapeutic strategies used to lower inflammation. Randomized clinical trials that elucidate inflammatory outcomes stemming from exercise and or diet prescription in children or adults at risk for inflammation-based disease progression are needed to improve therapeutic outcomes and disease prevention strategies.
This Special Issue of Nutrients welcomes original research articles focused on human clinical trials elucidating exercise and or dietary impacts on systemic inflammation that alter adiposity or adipose tissue inflammation, hepatic lipids, lipid metabolism, gut microbiomes, muscle metabolism, serum or tissue metabolomes, or oxidative stress.
