Editorial Review:

Product Description:
UNDERSTANDING NORMAL AND CLINICAL NUTRITION, Eighth Edition, provides the most current and comprehensive coverage of both "normal" nutrition, such as digestion and metabolism, vitamins and minerals, and life cycle nutrition, as well as "clinical" nutrition related to diseases, such as nutrition and gastrointestinal, liver, and cardiovascular diseases. The text also incorporates a number of learning tools designed to help you retain the information and apply your knowledge so you are better prepared to work in a clinical setting. Features include case studies, "How To" boxes with examples of problem-solving in real-world situations, and study questions that further conceptual understanding of the material. Regardless of your course background, the text is organized and written in a clear, easy-to-follow format that will get you actively involved in the field of nutrition.

This was good. I had no problems with either the book or the seller, everything was in order and shipped in a timely manner.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Happy customer
I was very happy with the timeliness of the delivery; the book was in nearly perfect shape. I almost paid $120+ for this book at the book store, so I was very happy with the condition of the book. Thumbs up for the seller.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - EXCELLENT BOOK
EXCELLENT AND VALUABLE SOURCE OF INFORMATION
TRUE TOOL FOR MY MEDICAL REPRESENTATIVE NEEDS. ESPECIALLY THE CHAPTER WITH THE ENETRAL AND PARENTERAL FEED NUTRITION





Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - SOUND ADVICE
I thoroughly enjoyed the read. The book was provacative, informative, interesting and captivating. However, not all the advice was new, some apepars to have been recycled.

But overall I was satisfied. I feel healthier already.

For those interested in improving their overall health I also recommend You: On A Det. You: On A Diet: The Owner's Manual for Waist Management



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Excellent Resource, even beyond class
First of all, I am fascinated by nutrition. It's a pretty cool thing to know how food contributes to our everyday existence. With that in mind, this book is a fantastic nutrition resource and reference. I've read a lot of extracurricular nutrition guides over the years and was under the impression I had a pretty good handle on the concepts. Nope. I felt like an amateur once I got into this book. There is so much more to learn and this book lays it out into a very "digestible" format.
