Park Sun-min et al.: Nutrition and Health

The development of medical technology and improved hygiene are further and further extended human life spans. People are pursuing a healthy long life, but the reality is that there's a longer life span of illness than there is a healthy life span. In the past, nutritional deficiency diseases have been common due to insufficient food consumption, and in the last 20 years, the trend is to increase the opposite. And especially the chronic disease of obesity, metabolic disease, is rapidly growing, and as you can see from the term chronic illness, once it happens, it's difficult to cure, and it'll be necessary to keep taking drugs and managing it. So it's important to prevent metabolic disease from developing, and the way we can properly manage food is to prevent the need to be inadequate or over-indulge. It describes diseases related to nutrients in food and how proper nutrition can prevent major metabolic diseases. This book is composed of each of the 23 stories of nutrients and related diseases. Each of the 73s described the nutritional definitions, categories, digestion and absorption, function, quantity, major food supplements, overexertion or deficiency in food. And we added a little bit later on on on the metabolic disease that is most related to each of the nutrients. And we've also simplified the connection between nutrition and disease, before the onset of disease, and diet management.
