Following in the tradition of its popular predecessors, the
CRC Desk Reference for Nutrition, Third Edition explains hundreds of terms commonly used in medicine, food science, metabolism,
physiology, and nutrition. Thoroughly updated and expanded to
reflect major advances over the past decade, this reference lists entries alphabetically and cross-references them when multiple terms are used for the same
definition. Each entry is followed either by a definition, paragraph, essay, composition, article, or feature article. Many of the more complex entries are supported with figures or tables.
New Material in the Third Edition- Gut hormones and their functions
- Food intake recommendations
- New drugs with nutritional applications
- Novel discoveries of transport and messenger proteins
- Gene polymorphisms involved in nutritional responses
A compilation of terms of interest to the
nutritionist and non-nutritionist, this book is an alphabetical list of
medical terms, drugs, biochemical, genetic and physiological terms relevant to understanding the need for and use of nutrients
