Product Details
By Sari Edelstein, PhD, RD and Judith Sharlin, PhD, RD.
Using the latest epidemiologic research, this book explores nutritional foundations and the growth, development, and normal functioning of individuals through each stage of life. With subjects as diverse as media influences on eating, skipping breakfast, fruit juice consumption, and clinical nutrition, this text gives current knowledge, helps evaluate emerging knowledge, and prepares to uncover new knowledge. Takes a topical, multi-disciplinary approach to the physiological, biochemical, sociological, and developmental factors that affect nutrient requirements and recommendations at the various stages of the life cycle. The issues surrounding topics such as chronic disease in adults are discussed throughout the adult stage. This approach makes it easier to relate nutrition concepts and epidemiologic research to the stages of life. 532 pages. 10-4/5" x 8-1/2". Softcover. Copyright 2009.
