What we eat can influence our health in many different ways, from our risk of developing certain diseases to the way our bodies regulate weight and respond to specific foods. At the same time, dietary choices are shaped by individual needs, health conditions and changing patterns of consumption.
In this special, we explore the complex relationship between food, diet and health, looking at topics ranging from the links between diet and cancer and the role of plant-based diets to celiac disease, cardiovascular health, body weight and the importance of fibre. Together, these stories offer different perspectives on the science behind what we eat and its impact on our health.
