Nutritious food could be described as; a simple and straight forward phenomena of the physical dimension of life; patterns of atoms and molecules forming chemical substances which, when ingested, interface with the systems of a life-form which can process them to maintain and promote its vitality and its genetically pre-determined functional existence. However, as human beings, our relationship to foods we need or desire, and our consciously and subconsciously motivated choices of foods, are the actual driving forces behind our final act of ingestion. To understand human nutrition holistically we will have to take into account the holistic aspects of humans and the foods they choose to ingest, this module explores these issues and many more.
