Nutrition
Definition: "(also called
nourishment or aliment) is the provision, to cells and
organisms, of the materials necessary (in the form
of food) to support
life. Many common health problems can be prevented
or alleviated with good nutrition.
The
diet of an organism refers to what it eats.
Dietitians are
health professionals who specialize in human
nutrition, meal planning, economics, preparation, and so
on. They are trained to provide safe, evidence-based
dietary advice and management to individuals (in health
and disease), as well as to institutions.
Poor diet can have an injurious impact on health,
causing deficiency diseases such as
scurvy,
beriberi, and
kwashiorkor; health-threatening conditions like
obesity and
metabolic syndrome, and such common chronic systemic
diseases as
cardiovascular disease,
diabetes, and
osteoporosis." Source:
