The eighth edition of this nutrition classic,
Present Knowledge in Nutrition, published by the International Life Sciences Institute Press, is hot off the presses. In continuous publication since 1953, Present Knowledge in Nutrition has been thoroughly revised and is an essential reference for inclusion on the bookshelves of dietitians, physicians, researchers, food industry scientists, educators, students, nutrition policy makers, and other nutrition professionals.
This affordable resource includes up-to-date, accurate, and comprehensive information on macronutrients, micronutrients (including the new Dietary Reference Intake values), disease correlations, and the other fundamentals of nutrition science. The editors, distinguished nutrition scientists from public health and medicine, worked closely with an international editorial advisory board to ensure the book’s timeliness and broad appeal to a global audience.
The 65 fully-referenced chapters are organized into sections on energy physiology, macronutrients, fat soluble vitamins, water-soluble vitamins, minerals and trace elements, nutrition and the life cycle, physiology and pathophysiology, nutrition and chronic disease, nutrition and pathophysiology, international nutrition, and emerging issues.
