What Kind of Targeted Nutrition Do You Need?


Why do we need foods? Because there are many nutrients in foods, and they are exactly what our body cells need to function normally. In fact, the nutrients in food can be categorised by core nutrition and targeted nutrition.

These complex body organs and systems have their own respective functions, for example, joints and bones, gastrointestinal system, liver, skin, respiratory system as well as others. Due to their different natures, the nutrients they need are particularly different too.
