| Summary: | ‡a"Widely respected, NUTRITION THROUGH THE LIFE CYCLE, Sixth Edition clearly illustrates how nutrition impacts healthy people as they grow, develop, and function through the stages of life. Organized systematically, this text progresses from preconception to the end stages of the life cycle, alternating chapters between normal and clinical nutrition, to give a complete picture of each topic. Concepts include nutritional needs, nutrition and health disease outcomes, and model programs, as well as new research on healthful diets, nutrients, gene variants, and nutrient-gene interactions. Realistic case studies throughout the text offer students multiple perspectives on the issues and a true understanding of the clinical applications and care standards in practice today."--Publisher's website. |
