Beskrivelse
Summary:This Reprint offers a state-of-the-art overview of the converging fields of clinical nutrition, energy metabolism, and neurobehavioral vulnerability. It explores how emerging dietary strategies, including the Mediterranean diet, influence body composition, metabolic energy expenditure, and the neurobiological mechanisms that underlie eating behaviors and disorders. Particular attention is given to body composition assessment through advanced methodologies such as DXA and BIA, to the regulation of metabolic processes and energy balance, and to the neurological aspects of obesity, food addiction, and eating disorders. The role of the gut microbiota is also examined as a key component of the gut–brain axis, with implications for nutrient absorption, appetite regulation, and the aggravation of neuro-metabolic fragility. By integrating insights from nutrition, metabolism, neuroscience, and behavioral science, this Reprint provides a comprehensive and updated perspective on how foods and dietary patterns affect human health. It highlights the importance of precision approaches in clinical nutrition and offers new directions for the prevention and management of chronic noncommunicable diseases and eating disorders.
