Abstract: Introduction: Nutrition is a crucial aspect in psychiatry, as a proper diet can decrease the impact and disability associated with mental disorders. Therefore, it is necessary to know the current state of available information for the scientific community on this topic. Objective: To characterize the scientific production indexed in Scopus on psychiatric nutrition from 2019 to 2022. Method: A bibliometric study was conducted on scientific production related to psychiatric nutrition indexed in Scopus from 2019 to 2022. Bibliometric indicators of productivity, impact, and collaboration were studied. The data were exported from the bibliographic database in question and processed with the support of VOSviewer and Microsoft Excel tools. Results: Between 2019 and 2022, the scientific production on psychiatric nutrition available in Scopus covered a total of 198 publications. The year with the highest production was 2021 with 29.8% of the published documents in the studied period. Citations of publications tended to decrease. A chronological analysis of the co-occurrence of the term "nutrition" in detail allowed us to observe a higher frequency of this term in publications in 2020. Regarding collaboration between countries, the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, and Australia stood out. Conclusions: Scientific production on psychiatric nutrition has grown moderately from 2019 to 2022, although its impact has remained in decline. It is important to strengthen the production of knowledge about this topic and promote interdisciplinary collaboration between psychiatry, psychology, and nutrition
