Nutritional Status

Nutritional status refers to the condition of your body in relation to the nutrients it receives from food. It is influenced by diet, lifestyle, and health conditions. Good nutritional status means you are getting the right balance of vitamins, minerals, proteins, fats, and carbohydrates to support your overall health and well-being. Poor nutritional status can lead to deficiencies, malnutrition, or obesity, affecting your energy levels, immune system, and risk of chronic diseases. Assessing nutritional status helps identify potential health risks and informs dietary choices for better health outcomes.
