Food And Nutrition

Food and Nutrition is a multidisciplinary field that encompasses the study of how food affects the body and how the body processes food. It involves an understanding of the chemical and physical properties of food, as well as the biological processes that occur during digestion, absorption, and metabolism. Food and Nutrition also explores the effects of food on health, including its role in preventing and managing chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. This field is essential for developing strategies to promote healthy eating habits and to ensure that individuals have access to safe, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food.
