Nutrition (also called nourishment or aliment) is the provision, to cells and organisms, of the materials necessary (in the form of food) to support life. Many common health problems can be prevented or alleviated with a healthy diet.

The diet of an organism is what it eats, which is largely determined by the perceived palatability of foods. Dietitians are health professionals who specialize in human nutrition, meal planning, economics, and preparation. They are trained to provide safe, evidence-based dietary advice and management to individuals (in health and disease), as well as to institutions.

A poor diet can have an injurious impact on health, causing deficiency diseases such as scurvy, beriberi, and kwashiorkor; health-threatening conditions like obesity and metabolic syndrome; and such common chronic systemic diseases as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis.

What is the best nutrition supplier for bodybuilders?
Q. From GNC, to Megaplex, to Animal there are soo many nutrition suppliers which one is the leader and most used among professional body builders?
Asked by bigjpforlife - Tue Jun 24 12:38:56 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. It really doesnt matter where you get it, just what you're getting. Most of the products are the same, just vary slightly in ingredients. Optimum Nutrition's whey protein has always been on the top of the bodybuilding supplement list, and for obvious reasons. I ordered myself a 5lb tub of it and it was the best I ever had. They introduced it into the market first after all. For creatine, Higher Power is ranked #1. NO Shotgun still reigns supreme for Nitric Oxide. GNC, DPS Nutrition, even Sams Club carries bodybuilding products. See below for a link to all the top bodybuilding supplements

How does the lack of nutrition labels on fast foods and restaurant menus affect the African-American community?
Q. How does the lack of nutrition labels on fast foods and restaurant menus affect the African-American community specifically? What questions do you have about obesity and African Americans?

A. Hello. Most fast food restaurants have their nutritional information available on the Web. But the time to look it up, the interest in doing it and the access to a computer would all be issues... The real question is why don't more families cook...food expense has a lot to do with it but buying fast food is actually more expensive, even if you buy the Williams 8 piece dark or McDonald's chicken nuggets all the time... Another issue is simply knowing how to cook and teaching your children to like cooked food. Interestingly enough, this is becoming a problem all over the developed world, and not just with Black people. Even Japanese mothers have trouble somtimes keeping their kids away from the fast food... People need to grow some… [cont.]

What credible universities offer degrees in holistic nutrition?
Q. I want to get a degree in holistic nutrition, but the only colleges that show up in my searches are schools like DeVry and the university of Phoenix. Where can I obtain a credible degree in this field?
Asked by Bekah - Sat Jul 18 02:33:30 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments

A. None. Even the work "holistic" is mostly used by crackpot altmed enthusiasts. If you want a REAL degree in nutrition/dietetics, attend a program accredited by the Commission on Accreditation for Dietetics Education.
