Each of the following chronic health conditions has been linked
by nutrition research to our dietary habits. In most cases, this
association is linked to either excessive intake or inadequate
intake of a particular nutrient or food group. For each

our risk of developing it. (Do not include alcohol since its
calories have no nutritive value.) You should have a
different nutrient for each condition.
Example: Osteoporosis: An adequate intake of
Vitamin D can help bones absorb calcium.
