In this revision of the 1999 edition, contributors with the Institute of Functional Medicine in Washington state seek to educate practitioners on clinical nutrition. Also known as molecular nutrition, this field ventures beyond the traditional focus on deficiencies to examine metabolic patterns and nutrient interactions for optimal health. Chapters treat macro- and micro-nutrients, effects of gut ecology and environmental toxins, and the IFM approach to assessing nutritional status. A major emphasis is on food allergies/intolerance, although it is acknowledged that this is an area of controversy. Annotation �2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Review

"As a Nutrition Consultant, Clinical Nutrition: A Functional Approach is one of my best references. ... I would highly recommend this book for practicing nutritionists who are seeking more comprehensive answers to address their clients' needs." -- Linda Rodriguez, NC, CPT

"I took my cross training to be amongst the first group of Registered Dietitians to also become Certified Clinical Nutritionists. The functional medicine training was the next logical step to expand my CCN certification. Learning about functional medicine was a transformative step that changed the entire direction of my career path." -- Paula Mendelsohn, MPH, RD, LD, CCN
