As modern food processing techniques continue to evolve, understanding how these technologies alter the functional components of foods, and how such changes ultimately affect human wellness, has become a critical priority in nutritional science. This Special Issue brings together multidisciplinary contributions that bridge food science, nutrition, public health, pharmacology, and related fields. It explores the biological activities and health benefits of vitamins, minerals, proteins, bioactive peptides, and dietary fibers derived from functional foods and medicine-food homology sources. Attention is given to the mechanisms by which probiotics, prebiotics, and synbiotics modulate the human microbiome, contributing to disease resistance and overall nutritional health. The role of functional foods in addressing nutrient deficiencies and promoting optimal health across diverse populations and life stages is also thoroughly examined. Contributions investigate how functional food factors may exert protective or enhancive effects against metabolic syndrome, diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and other non-communicable chronic conditions. By assembling original research articles, comprehensive reviews, and meta-analyses, this Reprint offers new insights and methodologies that deepen our understanding of the nutritional virtues of functional foods and their significance in public health. This collection aims to catalyze further research and innovation in food science and nutrition, fostering a deeper appreciation for how dietary components can be harnessed to promote lifelong health and prevent disease.
