About this book

From Cradle to Old Age presents nutrition as a continuous influence on health across the whole lifespan. Dr. Hala Fouad begins with maternal nutrition and fetal development, then addresses the decisive years of childhood and adolescence before turning to adult health and the distinct needs of older people. Written to help families navigate conflicting advice and passing trends, the book favors clear scientific explanation over quick fixes. It aims to turn meals and food choices into informed decisions, showing how prevention, appropriate care, and age-specific knowledge can support energy, memory, and quality of life for every generation in the household.
