Un panorama alimenticio: Una óptica mediante un análisis cienciométrico y revisión sistemática

To understand how the challenges related to food security, sustainability and quality of life have become one of the actions of constant attention. The purpose of this study is to offer an in-depth analysis of the research lines currently being addressed in the food landscape. The method used was descriptive qualitative, based on a systematic literature review, and subsequently, a scientometric analysis using data from Scopus from 2012 to 2022, with a descriptive qualitative approach. The results demonstrate a direct relationship between the passage of years and the progressive increase in the quantity of publications. Three types of trendswere distinguished: consolidated, intermediate and emerging. Among the key words, quality, antioxidant activity, health, marketing and COVID-19 stood out. In addition, the importance and linkage of food studies with topics such as health, innovation, sustainability, industry and education were emphasized. Subsequent studies, emphasis is placed on addressing terms with greater potential combined with current circumstances, such as food sovereignty in complex contexts, food insecurity as a current issue, the role of the consumer in promoting healthy eating, or fast food and the mega ecological trend in developing countries.
