Description - Nutrition and Your Body: Your Body on Salt by Yvette LaPierre
The foods that we eat can help or harm our bodies. Our bodies need nutrients such as salt and carbohydrates to survive. But too much or too little can have consequences. We also feed our bodies unecessary things, like caffeine. These substances can have benefits, but they can also do harm. In Nutrition and Your Body, learn about how different nutrients interact with the body. Discover how the body digests them, the changes they cause in the body and the various effects they have on us. Most people around the world enjoy caffeine. This drug helps people feel awake. It can have some benefits, but it also has risks. Salt is the only rock people eat. The human body needs it to survive. But it does not need much. Your Body on Salt uncovers the nutritional benefits of salt, how it interacts with the body and how to include it as part of a balanced diet. Easy-to-read text, vivid images and helpful back matter give readers a clear look at this subject. Features include a table of contents, infographics, a glossary, additional resources and an index. AGES: 8 to 11
