Many of us received a nutrition education since primary school. We learned about the "four food groups" and were taught to eat moderately from each group every day. We also learned a bit about how our body uses specific vitamins and nutrients: Vitamin A for eyesight, calcium for strong bones and teeth, and so on.
Times have changed.
Researchers now know the foods we eat strongly influence our health: They pave the way for us to have healthy babies, help prevent or promote diseases, may sharpen or weaken our mental acuity, and may even affect our moods. In short, we now know proper nutrition is vitally important to almost every physiological process and function.
These physiological processes may be complicated, but learning what you need to know about nutrition does not need to be. Just read on and I hope you get to learn from the next articles that will be posted here.
