A lot has been written about nutrition and different diets. People tend to take various supplements based on the knowledge they get from advertisements or rely on official recommendations. Also, there are many information sources available on different diets. However, there is very little systematic and concise data on how to perfectly optimize the intake of different nutrients of a single individual.
We are at least somewhat familiar with official nutritional recommendations and general recommended dietary allowances (RDAs). The advantages and drawbacks of the recommendations addressed to the public lie in their simplicity and globality. General recommendations concerning recommended nutrient intake often reflect the threshold levels that reduce the risk of exposure to certain known diseases. However, the population-weighted average requirements may not be relevant when optimizing individual nutrition intake.
No matter your most important goal or starting point, this book will guide you in balancing your nutritional intake.
