Aims and Scope:

The International Journal of Obesity, Weight Management & Control (IJOWMC) is a distinguished open-access journal dedicated to disseminating cutting-edge research and insights concerning obesity and weight management. As an esteemed platform, IJOWMC invites researchers, clinicians, and public health practitioners from around the globe to contribute their findings and expertise in the pursuit of effective strategies for obesity prevention and treatment.

IJOWMC stands as a valuable resource, encompassing a wide range of topics relevant to the field of obesity and weight management. From nutrition and physical activity to public health interventions, epidemiology, genetics, and beyond, the journal covers diverse aspects of research, providing a comprehensive platform for knowledge exchange and collaboration.

Recognizing the multifaceted nature of obesity, IJOWMC embraces an interdisciplinary approach, welcoming submissions that address the complex interplay of biological, behavioral, social, and environmental factors influencing weight regulation. By encompassing a broad spectrum of research areas, the journal fosters a holistic understanding of obesity and encourages the development of comprehensive and personalized interventions.

IJOWMC places a special emphasis on nutrition-related research, understanding the pivotal role of dietary factors in obesity development and management. It provides a platform for researchers to explore novel dietary approaches, innovative nutritional interventions, and the impact of specific nutrients or dietary patterns on weight control. By shedding light on the intricate relationship between nutrition and obesity, IJOWMC contributes to the advancement of evidence-based dietary guidelines and interventions.

Furthermore, IJOWMC recognizes the importance of physical activity in obesity prevention and management. The journal invites researchers to share their work on physical activity interventions, exercise physiology, behavioral aspects of exercise adherence, and the impact of physical activity on weight loss and weight maintenance. By promoting research in this area, IJOWMC encourages the integration of physical activity as an essential component of comprehensive weight management strategies.

IJOWMC also serves as a platform for examining the broader public health implications of obesity. It welcomes research on population-level interventions, policy initiatives, and community-based programs aimed at promoting healthy lifestyles and preventing obesity. By sharing successful public health interventions and identifying strategies for addressing health disparities, IJOWMC contributes to the development of evidence-based approaches to combat the global obesity epidemic.

In addition, IJOWMC recognizes the importance of genetics and genomics in understanding individual differences in obesity susceptibility and response to interventions. The journal invites research exploring genetic variants associated with obesity, gene-environment interactions, and the potential of precision medicine in obesity prevention and treatment. By unraveling the genetic underpinnings of obesity, IJOWMC facilitates the development of personalized approaches tailored to individuals’ unique genetic profiles.

As an open-access journal, IJOWMC ensures that the latest advancements in obesity research are freely accessible to researchers, healthcare professionals, policymakers, and the public worldwide. This open access philosophy promotes global collaboration, facilitates the exchange of ideas, and encourages the translation of research findings into practice, ultimately contributing to improved outcomes in obesity prevention and management.

In conclusion, the International Journal of Obesity, Weight Management & Control (IJOWMC) plays a pivotal role in advancing our understanding of obesity and weight management. By providing a platform for interdisciplinary research, embracing a comprehensive approach, and promoting open access, IJOWMC fosters collaboration, disseminates knowledge, and contributes to the development of effective strategies for obesity prevention, treatment, and public health.
