About this book
This second edition volume is a desktop reference guide on nutrition and its clinical implications for health and disease. Presented in a new softcover format and user-friendly style, it serves as a valuable resource of practical information on nutrition for physicians and other healthcare professionals in their daily practice. The book covers all important aspects of nutrition including basic nutritional principles, nutrition through the lifecycle and optimal nutrition patterns through all stages of development, and diet and its role in prevention, cause, and treatment of disease.
Nutrition Guide for Physicians and Related Healthcare Professionals is thoroughly updated from its predecessor, Nutrition Guide for Physicians and provides a wide perspective of the impact that nutrition has upon medical practice and will be an indispensable resource for primary care physicians and other medical professionals.
