Recenzii

The ultimate nutrition textbook regardless of whether you are studying to be a nutritionist, dietitian or if nutrition is integrated into your course. This evidence-based textbook takes you on a journey from molecular mechanisms through to public health nutrition challenges. Engaging and easy-to read, the comprehensive text is up-to-date and written by leading experts in the field, providing a valuable resource for students, practitioners and researchers.
The 14th edition of Human Nutrition is one of the most comprehensive, up-to-date and authoritative textbooks written by a renowned team of international experts. It is a must have book for all undergraduates and postgraduates studying nutrition and health related science, as well as academics and professionals working in these fields.
Human Nutrition continues to be the "go-to" text for all students specialising in nutrition and dietetics, whilst remaining accessible to those from other health and science disciplines. The book covers everything from molecular and cellular aspects of nutrient metabolism, its application to clinical nutrition right through to population and global nutrition, and the 14th Edition has been revised with greater attention to nutrition assessment. No bookshelf on nutrition should be without it.
