Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

The impact of lifestyle behaviors on physical and mental health is widely acknowledged in the literature, with evidence focusing on the individual effects certain aspects of lifestyle have on health. This simplification is due to the complexity of studying behavioral interactions and streamlining recommendations in clinical and public health settings. However, behaviors often combine into patterns, potentially magnifying their effects.

With this in mind, this Special Issue aims to delve into the roles of nutrition and sleep as fundamental components of lifestyle that impact health. We seek to deepen our understanding of how nutrition influences health, covering aspects like nutritional status, body composition, dietary intake, and body image perception. Additionally, we aim to explore the relationship between various sleep-related variables—such as duration, quality, latency, efficiency, insomnia, and other sleep disorders—and health outcomes. Furthermore, we consider the interplay between nutrition and sleep and their potential synergistic effects on physical and mental health. Studies on chrononutrition and the association between chronotype and health outcomes are also encouraged.

Dr. Arthur Eumann Mesas
