Recovering from Malnutrition: Diet & Rebuilding Health (Expert Advice)


Question
When y youu have had a hard life and want to get your ulimate healh back what do you do i am 22
what should you eat and hoow do you know when you are malnutritioned

Answer
Hi Bianca,

There are standardized food charts with recommended daily allowances of essential foods. I also advise taking a multivitamin, as well.

As to determining if you are malnourished, I used body fat percentage as an indicator. People in optimal health have total body fat in the range of 8 to 12% of total body weight. You determine body fat by subtracting your weight while totally immersed in water from your weight in atmosphere. The difference is the weight of your body fat.

I hope this answers your question.

Good luck,
