What is the point of doing onebalanced dietif then the food we eat does not have thenutritional properties that we need, or contains sometoxic substances that can poison us and make us ill over time?

And maybe drown our despair in sugar?

In the advanced course we will also talk aboutnutraceuticals!
The term nutraceuticals was coined in 1989 by Dr. Stephen De Felice and refers tocorrelation between food substances and their healing potential. In practice, nutraceuticals are about the use of specific foods or food componentsto improve health, prevent and treat diseases. These foods contain bioactive components such as vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals and fatty acids, which have demonstrated healing or preventive properties. Functional foods are those that provide physiological or psychological benefits beyond just basic nutrition. They can be naturally rich in beneficial substances or artificially enriched with natural components, mainly of plant origin, which have demonstrated healthy properties.

The Open Days
We have organized open days in almost every region of Italy at carefully selected companies, respectful of the ecosystem and inevitably the health of others.
The purpose of the open days is to understand how a product is made: only in this way are we able to truly evaluate its authenticity. At some companies there will also be a moment of refreshment.
Discover the company we have selected for your region!
