In today's stressed-out, fast-moving world, far too many of us don't take the time to shop carefully, cook thoughtfully, and eat healthily. But nutritious foods are essential to a healthy life—the more balanced our diets are, the healthier (and happier!) we will be. This book will tell you everything you need to know about eating for health: what a healthy diet looks like, why some people don't bother with it, and why you should! We have all heard the old saying, “you are what you eat.” The six volumes in Health & Nutrition will explain the many ways in which the food choices you make every day can help or hurt your body's functioning. The books also look at physical fitness, the importance of good hygiene, and the many challenges of keeping food safe from contamination. From the key components of a balanced diet to avoiding foodborne illnesses, and from the impact of stress on health to how malnutrition hurts the body, these books are packed with useful information about protecting and improving your health. |
