Description
The impact of nutrition on human health has become the forefront of discussion with everyone from healthcare providers and research scientists to nutritionists and dietitians. However it's the lack of targeted research for women’s health and nutritional dietary needs at various life stages that is lacking. Nutrition and Women’s Health: Functional Foods, Nutraceuticals, and Integrative Strategies, is a comprehensive guide that exposes the benefits of nutraceuticals and functional foods for the prevention, treatment, and recurrence of disease through various life stages. From adolescence through menopause, “Nutrition and Women’s Health: Functional Foods, Nutraceuticals and Integrative Strategies,” offers insights on how to manage health through nutrition. Chapters include nutritional modules for sources of nutrients and bioactive compounds for teenage nutrition, the interaction of sex hormones, menopause, the management of polycystic ovary syndrome, fertility, bone, skin and heart health and more. Authors will also highlight the underlying causes of various pathophysiology conditions linked to nutrition, and how careful diet plans or daily nutrition selection can help to avoid problems across various age groups.
