FAVOURITE BOOK
This book, sadly no longer available, highlights why food alone will not support our bodies nutritional needs in the 21st century.
The Missing Nutrients explains why many people today are not receiving all the nutrients their bodies need, even when eating what appears to be a healthy diet. Dr. Steve Nugent argues that modern farming practices, food processing, environmental toxins, stress, and changing lifestyles have reduced the nutritional quality of our food, making nutrient deficiencies increasingly common.
A major focus of the book is on glyconutrients (glycans)—complex sugars involved in cell-to-cell communication. Dr. Nugent explains how these molecules help cells communicate effectively, support normal immune function, and contribute to overall health. He also discusses essential fatty acids, the importance of high-quality nutritional supplementation, and why diet alone may not always provide everything the body requires.
Written as a short, easy-to-read introduction, the book aims to help readers understand the science behind nutrition and why supporting the body's natural communication systems may be an important part of maintaining long-term health and wellbeing.
Getting glycans back in our diets, transforms health at the cellular level and many have lowered their metabolic age and are aging much healthier.
