The Macronutrient Dashboard: Get crystal-clear on carbs, lipids, and proteins, including their precise energy yields (the crucial 4-9-4 rule) and their non-negotiable roles in patient health. The Vitamin Verdict: Demystify the critical difference between water-soluble and fat-soluble vitamins (remembered easily with the FAT ADEK trick) and learn why one group requires daily intake while the other carries a real toxicity risk. The Mineral Matrix: Decode the six major electrolytes that are the "spark plugs" of the body and the trace minerals that, despite their tiny amounts, wield immense power over health.
