Opis

This new book discusses the physiological factors that contribute to metabolic syndrome within the human body and spotlights the beneficial effects on the body of nutraceuticals and functional ingredients, botanicals and natural dietary supplements, structurally numerous antioxidants, B-vitamins, and diverse amino acids and vital nutrients. The book considers the need to preserve a balance between energy delivery and strength expenditure that is essential for maintaining an appropriate body mass index (BMI), which can contribute to less obesity and fewer metabolic disorders, such as diabetes type II, cardiovascular illnesses, etc. The authors present recent research that proves that proper vitamins—including antioxidants, nutrients, micronutrients, and selected amino acids—can enhance the body’s metabolism and defend it from inflammatory onslaughts.
