Sustainable Development Goals Education of Young People
The concept of sustainable development is often associated with the dichotomy between industrial/technological development and natural resources, bypassing the educational and social values that should be associated with social sustainability. Sustainable social development can be addressed in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) agenda tackling medioambiental and social issues at the same time. This is a way to improve the knowledge and competences about sustainability in a holistic style. In this regard, technological resources, essential in education nowadays, become an opportunity for new technologies and educational strategies to promote education on the SDGs with a critical point of view.

ChatGPT as a Nutrition Tool
The field of health and medical sciences has witnessed a surge of published research exploring the applications of ChatGPT. However, there remains a dearth of knowledge regarding its specific potential and limitations within the domain of nutrition. ChatGPT could also exhibit promising performance in the nutrition domain. Given the increasing prevalence of nutrition-related diseases, there is a critical need to prioritize the promotion of a comprehensive understanding of nutrition. This research examines the potential utility of ChatGPT as a tool for improving nutrition knowledge. Specifically, it scrutinizes its characteristics in relation to personalized meal planning, dietary advice and guidance, food intake tracking, educational materials, and other commonly found features in nutrition applications. Additionally, it explores the potential of ChatGPT to support each stage of the Nutrition Care Process. Addressing the prevailing question of whether ChatGPT can replace healthcare professionals, this research elucidates its substantial limitations within the context of nutrition practice and education. These limitations encompass factors such as incorrect responses, coordinated nutrition services, hands-on demonstration, physical examination, verbal and non-verbal cues, emotional and psychological aspects, real-time monitoring and feedback, wearable device integration, and ethical and privacy concerns have been highlighted. In summary, ChatGPT holds promise as a valuable tool for enhancing nutrition knowledge, but further research and development are needed to optimize its capabilities in this domain.
