Health
- Diets: In nutrition, the diet is the sum of the
food consumed by an organism. Proper nutrition for
a human requires vitamins, minerals, proteins, and
fuel in the form of carbohydrates and fats.
Imbalances between the consumed fuels and expended
energy results in either starvation or excessive reserves
of adipose tissue, or body fat. Poor intake of various
vitamins and minerals can lead to diseases like scurvy
or iodine deficiency.
Changing the dietary intake or going on a diet can
change the energy balance and increase or decrease
the body fat of a body. Some foods are specifically
recommended, or even altered, for conformity to the
requirements of a diet, and are frequently labeled
"diet foods". |
