Nutrient Balance Diet explores how to nourish your body properly by achieving a balanced intake of essential nutrients from various food groups. It highlights the importance of understanding both macronutrients (like proteins, fats, and carbohydrates) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) and how they function within the body.
The book emphasizes that many people unknowingly suffer from nutrient deficiencies due to processed foods and fad diets, ultimately impacting their overall health. This book uniquely places contemporary dietary challenges within the context of evolving nutritional science. It guides readers through creating meal plans that meet nutritional needs while aligning with personal tastes and lifestyles.
The book progresses across three distinct sections: the initial chapters introduce core concepts related to macro- and micronutrients, the middle explores the practical aspects of building a balanced diet with meal planning and portion control, and the concluding section focuses on specific dietary needs for different life stages.
