Description
Nutrition and Women's Health: Functional Foods, Nutraceuticals, and Integrative Strategies delves into the critical role nutrition plays in human health, highlighting its growing importance among healthcare providers, research scientists, nutritionists, and dietitians. Despite significant progress, there remains a lack of targeted research specifically addressing women's nutritional needs at various life stages. This book aims to fill that gap, offering comprehensive insights into the benefits of nutraceuticals and functional foods for disease prevention, treatment, and recurrence through different phases of a woman's life. The book covers a wide range of topics, including nutritional modules for teenage nutrition, the interaction of sex hormones, menopause management, polycystic ovary syndrome, fertility, and bone, skin, and heart health. It emphasizes the underlying causes of various pathophysiological conditions linked to nutrition and provides practical diet plans to help avoid health issues across various age groups. Expert authors present evidence-based strategies for improving women's health through nutrition, making this book an invaluable resource for professionals and individuals alike.
