Food science encompasses the study of food production, processing, preparation, evaluation, and utilization, leveraging chemistry, biology, physics, and psychology. It aims to enhance food quality, storage, and safety while evaluating substances like carbohydrates, proteins, and vitamins that contribute to bodily growth and health. In contrast, nutrition focuses specifically on the study of nutrients.
