Description - Nutrition and Your Body: Your Body on Sugar by Anita Yasuda

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. Sugar makes foods sweet. It is found naturally in many foods and is added to others. Too much sugar can cause health problems. Your Body on Sugar uncovers the nutritional benefits of sugar, 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
