Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

This Special Issue has the objective of discussing environmental and physiopathological aspects linked to obesity in the life cycle. Thus, considering this thematic Special Issue, “Nutrition-, Overweight- and Obesity-Related Health Issues”, we would like to receive articles concerning biological, social, environmental, and behavioral determinants of health, especially those related to obesity and comorbidities in the life cycle. Despite all the efforts of governmental and non-governmental agencies, in addition to the thousands of pieces of research published, the prevalence of overweight, obesity, and correlated comorbidities has been increasing day-by-day. Given this, we think about how people living with obesity can be healthy and live well. Other aspects related to obesity and COVID-19, obesity and mental health, obesity and sedentarism, and obesity and technologies are welcome in this Special Issue. This Special Issue will invite papers addressing these aspects, combining networking and multicenter studies.
