Life-course challenges are addressed through research on adolescent obesity-anemia double burden and saturated fat intake, plus household food waste and sustainability.The issue closes with food science and clinical contributions: ozone-treated fish floss shelf-life testing, glycemic response to frozen rice, depression and hypertension among elderly care residents, unintentional weight loss in chronic kidney disease, and a functional biscuit's effects on tuberculosis-infected rats.Together, these studies highlight nutrition science's multidisciplinary reach integrating policy, community engagement, molecular biology, and food systems research to address Indonesia's evolving nutritional burdens.
