Nutritional science

Nutritional science explores the various types of nutrients essential for the body, including macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals). Understanding the roles and functions of these nutrients is crucial in maintaining optimal health.

Digestion and Metabolism:- The field examines the processes of digestion, absorption, and metabolism, which convert ingested food into energy and building blocks for cellular function.

Dietary Patterns:- Researchers in nutritional science investigate the impact of different dietary patterns on health. This includes studies on the effects of specific diets, such as the Mediterranean diet or vegetarianism, on various health outcomes.

Disease Prevention and Treatment:- Nutritional scientists study the relationship between diet and the prevention or management of various diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, obesity, and certain cancers. They explore how specific nutrients and dietary patterns can contribute to health or increase disease risk.

Public Health Nutrition:- This aspect of nutritional science focuses on population-level nutrition, addressing issues such as food security, malnutrition, and the development of public health interventions to improve overall nutritional status
