Guest Editors: Friederike Barthels (friederike.barthels@uni-duesseldorf.de)
The Topical Collection on Orthorexia Nervosa (a possible new eating disorder with two main features: obsessive focus on healthy food with inflexible dietary rules; consequent significant impairment) aims to provide a decisive hub for discussion based on data investigating different perspectives of Orthorexia Nervosa and to offer a wide range of research studies reporting relevant case studies, the development of novel and valid diagnostic tools and to provide meta-evidence via systematic reviews. Editors wish to increase awareness within the scientific community, stimulate further high-quality research in this field and improve the knowledge on Orthorexia Nervosa.
