Perspectivas del pensamiento ecológico que han influenciado el campo alimentario y nutricional

ABSTRACT: Human nutrition is a discipline that extends beyond biological aspects, and is integrated into social, political, historical, environmental, economic and cultural components. Among these, there is growing interest in nutrition-related ecology. Our objective was to recognize the main concepts that relate human nutrition with ecology, addressing the perspectives of ecological thinking that have influenced the food and nutrition field. Reflection: The perspectives of ecological thinking that have influenced the food and nutrition field might be grouped into: environmental, social and socio-environmental, and two concepts: eco-nutrition and ecological nutrition. Conclusions: Econutrition links nutrition with environment while ecological nutrition relates social, economic, environmental and health dimensions, which are part of human nutrition. These concepts propose a new way of understanding nutrition and food and allows promotion of applied research, education and policy making.
