In America, we have a large number of food choices that have a lot of calories but not many nutrients to go along with those calories. If these foods become a larger percentage of the overall diet, the body may become deficient in certain macro and micronutrients. Our bodies are complex biological systems that require many of these different nutrients for many different processes (it isn’t as simple as being sick and taking a vitamin C supplement). These deficiencies can appear in many different forms, but the good news is that the body does have signs and symptoms to let you know there’s something wrong.
On this episode, I’ve brought on a medical nutrition therapy professor from Kent State University, Tanya Falcone, to enlighten us on a few of the most common nutrient deficiencies in America, signs to look for, and what to do to address the deficiency.
