Nutritional and Environmental Medicine

Nutritional and environmental medicine represents a comprehensive approach to human health, investigating the interplay between dietary constituents, environmental exposures, and their impact on physiology, biochemistry, pathology, and anatomy. This discipline studies the complexities of interactions shaping individual health outcomes and public health. Researchers study the relationships between macronutrients, micronutrients, and bioactive compounds, exploring their roles in metabolic … Continue Reading
