Inhaltsangabe

The concepts of nutrition encompass two kinds of knowledge and ability. The first one is a knowledge and understanding of the individual nutrients that we need as human beings to work, learn, socialize, and exercise at our best. We need to understand what they are, what they do, and what happens if we do not have these nutrients. The second one is the ability to use these nutrients together to understand which foods they come from and what to do with these foods so that we get all the nutrients we need in the amounts that we need them. This program looks at nutrition from a holistic point of view that it not only gives facts about the nutrients we need but also looks at what to do with our newfound knowledge and understanding.
