The first part is more general and theoretical and explains the criteria and principles to follow, while the second part deals with practical solutions, i.e. the best functional foods and their usefulness in specific situations.
The book also includes information on how to choose foods and cook them when necessary. All of this is documented with references to scientific articles.
Nutrition has become an area of great interest for research, in order to meet the growing demand for new and natural foods that are also capable of producing psychophysical well-being and preventing pathologies.
In this way, knowledge about food products defined as having beneficial effects on health and perhaps present in herbal medicines in the form of extracts has increased.
The difference between foods, herbal remedies and phytotherapeutic medicines has gradually been reduced.
The book offers the reader a complete overview of the cultural knowledge necessary to orient themselves according to personal needs and to know how to choose the best.
