Description
"Contemporary Nutrition: Issues and Insights" presents the major concepts in nutrition, including the body's use of food nutrients and diet planning throughout the lifecycle. The student is asked to participate in self-assessment exercises at both the beginning and the end of each chapter. In addition, each chapter is devoted to behaviour change strategies, as well as a discussion of behaviour modification in the weight control chapter. The text contains the latest information on food labelling, the food pyramid and the safety of the food supply, and also presents extensive information on evaluating fad diets and nutrition claims. - from Amzon
