Hidden Hunger: The Nutrient Gap You’re Missing

Hidden Hunger: The Nutrient Gap You’re Missing

Published 3 days, 5 hours ago
Description

New UK research reveals a silent epidemic: most people are eating enough calories but missing vital nutrients — a condition called “hidden hunger” that quietly undermines immunity, energy, bone strength, and brain function. A staggering 93% of adults admit their diet could be better, and rising costs are pushing many toward cheaper, less nutritious foods. Fewer than one in five hit the “five a day” target, leaving critical gaps in vitamin D, folate, calcium, and iron — nutrients that work together in powerful chains. Vitamin D deficiency spikes in winter, iron drops especially for women and teens, and omega-3s are often absent. Experts recommend smart sun exposure, nutrient-dense foods like oily fish and leafy greens, and targeted supplements — including daily multivitamins — to plug the gaps and protect overall health.
