Must-Have Nutrition Text!
This is one of the most valuable textbooks in nutrition, with comprehensive coverage of basic and clinical nutrition topics. The 9th edition combines the two 8th edition volumes into one, and contains new chapters. Topics covered in new chapters include alternative nutrition therapies, regulating food and dietary intakes and food labeling and dietary supplements legislation. I recommend this text for anyone in the field of nutrition and it is especially essential for anyone in a graduate nutrition program. If you are to buy one nutrition text, this should be it!
