`nutrition` is not the food on the plate — it is what the body actually gets out of it. Picture the line that runs from a bowl of rice and vegetables, through eating, into a child who grows taller and does not get sick easily. Everything along that line — what goes in, whether it is the right kind, and whether the body ends up with what it needs — is what this word covers.

nutrition 指的不是盤子裡的食物本身,而是身體真正從食物裡「拿到」的東西。可以想成一條線:一碗飯和青菜、吃下去、然後是一個長高了、也比較不容易生病的孩子。這條線上的每一段——吃進什麼、吃得對不對、身體最後有沒有拿到它需要的——都在這個字的範圍裡。所以英文說 good nutrition、poor nutrition,講的是「這條線順不順」,中文的「營養」也一樣:說一個人「營養不夠」,講的不是他碗裡的東西,是他身體拿到的量。
