Definition of Food and Beverage Nutrition
Food and beverage nutrition is the scientific study of the nutrients and other substances in food and beverages, their action, interaction, and balance in relation to health and disease. It encompasses the processes by which the human body ingests, digests, absorbs, transports, utilizes, and excretes food substances. This field integrates principles from biochemistry, physiology, and molecular biology to understand how nutrients affect the human body and overall health.
