Objectives: This study aims to bibliometrically analyze themes, publication trends, and author collaborations in nutrition and longevity literature from 2014 to 2024.
Materials and Methods: The literature search was conducted on April 30, 2025, in the Scopus database. The search used the Boolean query: ("longevity diet" OR "longevity nutrition" OR "nutrition for healthy aging" OR "diet and lifespan" OR ("dietary interventions" AND longevity) OR "healthy aging diet" OR "diet and longevity"). A total of 108 articles published between 2014 and 2024 were analyzed using VOSviewer and Scimago Graphica.
Results: The number of publications on nutrition and longevity increased from 2014 to 2024, with a strong cumulative growth trend (R² = 0.999). The United States ranked first with 53 publications, followed by China (13) and the United Kingdom (11). The keywords formed four thematic clusters: “Molecular and Metabolic Processes Associated with Longevity,” “Health Indicators in Old Age,” “Dietary Strategies and Lifestyle Interventions,” and “Physiological Health and Nutrition.” Terms like “metabolism,” “genetics,” and “insulin resistance” appeared more frequently in 2018–2019, while “caloric intake,” “intestinal flora,” and “oxidative stress” were prominent in 2020–2021. From 2022 to 2024, research focus areas included “sarcopenia,” “body mass,” “sex difference,” and “antiaging activity.” Author analysis based on three or more publications identified 16 authors, 9 forming a two-cluster network.
Conclusion: This study reveals an increasing trend in publications on nutrition and longevity between 2014 and 2024 and highlights thematic focuses that may guide future research in the field.
