Description
Home Economics: Food and Nutrition by Nicola Anderson and Claire Thomson This comprehensive guide to food and nutrition covers the essential topics of food provenance, processing and production, and the importance of a balanced diet for good health. The authors explore the science behind food, including macronutrients, micronutrients, and fibre, as well as the nutritional and dietary needs of different life stages and groups. From understanding the food supply chain to making informed choices when shopping for food, this book provides a thorough understanding of the key concepts in home economics. It also addresses priority health issues, such as obesity and cardiovascular disease, and offers practical advice on how to achieve a healthy weight and maintain good nutrition.
