Optimum Nutrition - Summer 2017

この問題で

Good food on the brain? With the rise of so-called ‘clean eating’ we discuss orthorexia – a term used to describe what some are calling a new eating disorder.
Our feature interview is with the BBC’s Doctor in the House Dr Rangan Chatterjee, who talks to us about functional medicine and why a different approach could benefit patients and the NHS.
We also investigate the latest research on hygiene practices in the kitchen; look at how clever combinations can help us maximise the nutrients we get from foods; and ask whether eating insects could help food security and the planet.
Little Lives takes a look at the latest research on nutrition and behaviour, and asks whether what we give to our children could be contributing to tantrums or poor attention.

All this with research news, updates, delicious recipes and more.
