Features: The nutrients required by the human body include the three major macronutrients—carbohydrates, proteins, and fats—as well as the two minor micronutrients—vitamins and minerals. This book focuses on introducing nutritional concepts, aiming to help readers better understand the role of vitamins through simple language rather than blindly supplementing with vitamin D. The book begins with the story of the discovery of vitamin D, then helps readers understand its appearance, further explores how the vitamin taken into the body is absorbed by the body, and finally informs readers about which diseases are closely related to vitamin D. Simple vitamin D recipes are included, demonstrated by chefs from Shin Kong Hospital, allowing even those who are not skilled in cooking to easily obtain vitamin D through hands-on methods.
