You’ll also learn why whole foods and comprehensive supplements are more effective than single, isolated nutrients.

🌿 Reflection｜Nutrition isn’t a solo act—it’s a symphony of synergy

This chapter has shown you that nutrients work best not in isolation, but in collaboration. From antioxidants and omega-3s to vitamin D and calcium, you’ve learned how they team up to support your body far better than any one nutrient alone.
As you move forward, let this knowledge shape how you nourish yourself—not with a “magic nutrient” mindset, but with balanced, intentional variety. Every meal is an opportunity to build harmony within your body, one thoughtful choice at a time.
