Nutritional epidemiological studies aim to elucidate the relationship between dietary intake and disease occurrence at the population level. Their findings can play an important role in informing public health policies to promote heathier eating habits, such as national dietary guidelines and mandates on food fortification.

This Collection aims to bring together original research on all aspects of nutritional epidemiology, including nutrigenomics studies investigating diet-gene-disease interactions.
