Quantum food and nutrition: Subatomic approaches to nourishment for health and well-being.

Nutrition science has been represented as biomedical, environmental, societal and economic field, but quantum biology is sidestepped, thereby obscuring cognate problems and solutions. We are generally nourished for health, optimal well-being, longevity and personal security through sustainable livelihoods. Our nourish-ments include not only food and energy but also light from the sun, the firmament and the earth itself, along with information transmitted in subatomic particles and electromagnetic wave forms. We propose 'quantum nutrition' as an approach to reconcile quantum phenomena with nutritional biology. Appreciating quantum nutrition and recognizing its potential applications will provide opportunities for future health and well-being and for planetary habitability.
