this eleventh edition of Understanding Normal and Clinical Nutrition, nutrition research continues to uncover the many complex relationships between nutrition and
health. Our goals for this edition are to incorporate these current research findings into the core information necessary for an introductory course in nutrition. As with previous editions, each chapter has been substantially updated and revised to include new topics as well as expand on existing topics. The chapters include practical information and valuable resources to help readers apply nutrition knowledge and skills to their daily lives and the clinical setting.
