Nutrient Availability
About this Episode
In the fifth episode of Plant Power, the fourth season of the WholisticMatters Podcast Series, our topic is nutrient bioavailability and bioaccessibility. Food processing affects how the body utilizes nutrients consumed through food, and bioavailability and bioaccessibility are two terms that describe the nature of nutrient utilization in the body.
There are unique physiological differences between people, which affects nutrient absorption and utilization. Each individual is complex, and nutrient utilization could be based on how they consume their food, when they consume their food, and any other major health conditions.
