Description: Food and Nutrition by Lah Khons Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Food and nutrition are crucial aspects of human life as they directly affect the physical, mental, and emotional well-being of an individual. Nutrition refers to the intake and utilization of nutrients by the body, which is essential for the functioning of different body systems. Food, on the other hand, refers to any substance that can be consumed to provide energy, nutrients, or other beneficial substances to the body. A well-balanced diet that includes all the essential nutrients such as carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals is essential to maintain optimal health. Good nutrition and a healthy diet have numerous benefits such as improved immunity, increased energy levels, better cognitive functioning, and reduced risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, obesity, and diabetes. In contrast, poor nutrition and unhealthy diets can lead to malnutrition, deficiencies, and various health problems. Therefore, it is crucial to promote healthy eating patterns and create awareness among the general population about the importance of good nutrition and a balanced diet.
