Functional Foods - The Connection Between Nutrition, Health and Food Science by Leah Coles, PhD
“Functional foods” are foods that are given some other role or function; most often this is related to disease prevention and/or health. This book seeks to highlight the role of these foods. The first section, titled, “The Connection Between Nutrition and Health”, shows the varying and complicated relationships between nutrition, physical and mental health, and disease. The second section, on the connection between health science and food, presents a number of case studies on the possible uses of effectivity of functional foods. Both sections as a whole seek to discuss methods for nutritional interventions in relation to diseases like obesity and other prominant health concerns in today’s modern society.
