This editorial introduces a Research Topic exploring the diverse relationships between diet, 17 metabolism, and health. The collection of eight studies examines topics ranging from dietary trends 18 and obesity to the impact of specific nutrients and ultra-processed foods on metabolic health and 19 quality of life. Investigations into the effects of low-carbohydrate diets on metabolic syndrome, the 20 link between thyroid hormone sensitivity and insulin resistance, and the prevalence of anemia in 21 pregnant women are presented. Furthermore, the relationship between dietary nitrates/nitrites and gut 22 metabolites in metabolic syndrome, and the weight-loss-independent effects of fasting on human 23 growth hormone are highlighted. Collectively, these studies underscore the multifaceted nature of 24 nutritional science and offer valuable insights for future research and public health strategies aimed at 25 improving health outcomes. 26The complex connection between diet, metabolism, and human health continues to be a central focus 27 of scientific inquiry. This Research Topic brings together a collection of eight distinct studies, each 28 shedding light on specific aspects of this complex interplay across diverse populations and 29 physiological contexts. From examining dietary trends and their association with obesity to 30 investigating the nuanced effects of different fatty acids and the impact of ultra-processed foods on 31 quality of life, these articles collectively highlight the elaborate nature of nutritional science and its 32 profound influence on well-being. 33 Alhusseini, et al., in
