Healthcare and Food - Epistemology, Ethics and Law

This book draws critical connections between food, health, and the environment, redefining our understanding of nutrition as a dynamic interface that shapes human well-being. As the need for a holistic approach to "food health", ie. the relationship between well-being and nutrition, is increasingly becoming more pressing, this volume brings together interdisciplinary contributions that advocate for a new ethical and legal framework that prioritises integral well-being for individuals and communities.
