Obesity and metabolic dysfunction are among the strongest risk factors for poor brain and mental health, yet the neural mechanisms linking metabolism, brain, and behaviour remains poorly understood. Here, we provide the first evidence for two distinct large-scale brain network configurations--one associated with metabolic health and another with obesity-- identified using resting-state fMRI data and metabolic phenotypes from a large community cohort (N = 564). While obesity was linked to enhance...
