This section addresses fundamental aspects of nutrition and its outcomes in women and their children, both in early childhood and later in life, and keeps its audience fully informed of new initiatives, latest research findings and innovative ways to respond to changes in attitudes and public policies. 

The section focuses on all nutritional aspects concerning children, from birth to 18 years of age since awareness of how early dieting can affect later health is increasing. The importance of "early nutrition" and "long-term consequences" has become apparent in recent years.

We expect a range of various topics to be covered by this section, such as:

  • breastfeeding
  • preterm  and infant nutrition
  • sport nutrition in children
  • food allergy in children
  • microbiome development in children
  • pediatric obesity
  • malnutrition in children
  • eating behavior in children
