“…Integrated food recommendation, for example, in terms of having meal plans for a whole week or even longer, requires the integration of constraint-based recommendation technologies which help to assure that some eating-habits related constraints are satisfied. Examples of such constraints are: (1) the maximum amount of allowed calories per day must not be exceeded, (2) the share of carbohydrates and proteins should be in line with the requested amount of the envisioned sports activities for the same week, (3) sustainability aspects [114] need to be taken into account, and (4) the consumed food items should be as healthy as possible, evaluated, for example on a Nutri-Score scale [84]. Such menu recommendation tasks are also relevant in the context of group decision making, think about the scenario of a menu planning for the whole week which has to take into account the food preferences of all team members -in this context, also fairness aspects play a major role, i.e., in the long run to take into account the preferences of each group member in a nearly equal fashion [50,79].…”

Sports recommender systems receive an increasing attention due to their potential of fostering healthy living, improving personal well-being, and increasing performances in sport. These systems support people in sports, for example, by the recommendation of healthy and performance-boosting food items, the recommendation of training practices, talent and team recommendation, and the recommendation of specific tactics in competitions. With applications in the virtual world, for example, the recommendation of maps or opponents in e-sports, these systems already transcend conventional sports scenarios where physical presence is needed. On the basis of different working examples, we present an overview of sports recommender systems applications and techniques. Overall, we analyze the related state-of-the-art and discuss open research issues.

The fashion industry accounts for large impacts on the environment and social welfare, both on the consumers' and companies' sides. This study systematically reviews the literature on sustainable consumption in the fashion industry, clarifying sustainable fashion's meaning. Existing sustainable fashion solutions are investigated from consumers' behavior perspective and classified into three consumption phases, that is, (pre‐)purchase, use, and post‐use. 187 articles are included, and twenty‐six sustainable solutions are identified across the consumption phases. These include techniques, features, services, and behaviors able to increase garment sustainability by mitigating negative impacts and ensuring product circularity by recycling and/or reusing at the product's end of life, representing promising strategies for fostering a transition toward sustainable fashion consumption practices. An innovative and comprehensive framework of sustainable fashion solutions is developed. Future research agenda and a sustainable offering inventory for marketers are provided.

Nowadays, the demand for protective clothing for specific activities has been fueled by consumer's attitudes toward hygiene and their active lifestyles. The aim of the present work is focused on creating protective textiles that are safe for the environment. This study uses mushroom–neem oil and neem oil to test their antioxidant properties to make cotton fabric that resists bacterial growth. Pad dry cure is used to create antimicrobial fabric with mushroom–neem oil and neem oil with citric acid (1%) as a cross‐linking agent. The antibacterial activity against Escherichia coli and antioxidant activity by DPPH assay were assessed by applying mushroom–neem oil and neem oil separately to cotton knitted fabric at 120, 130, 140, and 150°C. FTIR and EDS were used to study the incorporation of mushroom–neem oil and neem oil on cotton fabric surfaces. Both the treated and untreated fabric surface morphology were examined using scanning electron microscopy. An increase in curing temperature was found to change the comfort characteristics of the treated fabric. The analysis also found that antimicrobials reduced thermal conductivity. Most importantly, increasing the curing temperature improved all comfort properties. Notably, fabric treated with mushroom neem oil is more comfortable than fabric treated with neem oil.Highlights Cotton fabrics with mushroom–neem and neem oil showed antibacterial activity. Neem oil‐treated fabrics had better antioxidant properties than mushroom–neem oil. Higher curing temperatures reduced thermal conductivity and improved comfort. Mushroom–neem oil samples have superior physical properties. Bioactive material treatments can reduce chemical and environmental impact.
