I got this booked used from the seller and it came in excellent condition. Great book for elderly or to help parents get the nutrition. Good index at the back of the book to help skip to chapters that I needed.

This has wonderful information. It was required for a class, but I'd suggest for any personal looking to understand nutrition.

It was great

Great

Should have bought it instead of just renting!
