ABC of Nutrition
A practical guide to nutrition and the health problems related to foods and diet, covering body composition, epidemiology, specific populations, and more
ABC of Nutrition is a comprehensive guide to nutrition as it relates to the causes, treatment and management of the symptoms and medical conditions frequently met by healthcare professionals. Beginning with a new introduction to principles of nutrition and definitions of terms, this revised and updated fifth edition includes new chapters on nutrition for special populations, such as pregnant women, children, and the elderly, and on the use of products marketed for sports and performance enhancement.
This new edition also features the latest National Institute for Health and Care Excellence guidelines on Nutrition Support for Adults, as well as guidance on Maternal and Child Nutrition. Written by a team of experts with a range of professional perspectives, ABC of Nutrition includes valuable, practical information based on clinical evidence, in an easily accessible way. Areas covered include:
- Vitamins and minerals, salt and sodium, fats, carbohydrates, and proteins
- Nutritional deficiencies in both developing and affluent countries, and the role of functional foods and nutrient fortification in addressing these deficiencies
- Nutrition’s role in heart disease, blood pressure, chronic diseases such as diabetes, and some types of cancer
- Challenges of weight management, eating disorders, and obesity for individuals and in the sphere of public health
- Addressing the large amount of misinformation circulating in the media about foods and health
ABC of Nutrition is an essential, stimulating read, aimed at providing confidence when advising about diet and nutrition for healthcare professionals, practitioners, and students in many fields.
