Nachhaltigkeit: Refers to practices that ensure the long-term availability of resources and minimize negative impacts on the environment. For example, sustainable farming methods aim to protect soil health and conserve water.
Lebensmittelsicherheit: Focuses on preventing contamination or harm from foodborne illnesses. This includes proper handling, storage, and preparation techniques to ensure that food is safe for consumption.
Nährwert: Describes the amount of nutrients present in a particular food item. It includes macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, fats) as well as micronutrients (vitamins and minerals) that are essential for maintaining good health.
