Description

This introductory nutrition text presents fundamental concepts of nutrition, including diet planning and the body's use of food nutrients throughout the life cycle. Wardlaw and Insel emphasize the application of nutrition principles in the student's everyday life. Coverage of energy balance, weight control, eating disorders and nutrition and disease (including hypertension, cardiovascular disease and alcoholism) is provided. New coverage is given in this edition to energy-yielding nutrients, digestion and absorption.
