ortomolecular 37
It is a naturist concept for the balance of health (especially through food) maintaining the correct or more favorable proportions for the body of vitamins, proteins, amino acids, liquids, . . . The name was proposed in 1967 by the American biochemist Linus Carl Pauling (Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1954 and Peace Prize in 1962), and consists of the Greek 959; 961; 952; 959; (ortho "straight, correct") the latin molecule voice ("minimal compound that maintains its qualities") . The adjective is used in food as 'orthomolecular kitchen', which takes care of the combination of ingredients for proper nutrition; but also in pseudomedical therapies that promise cures using dietary supplements, something that has no scientific basis.
