Nutrition in the Prevention and Treatment of Disease has been proving itself in the classroom for nearly 10 years and is praised as being accessible, applicable and a valuable textbook. It focuses specifically on the relationship between disease and nutrition, an area of ever increasing interest and concern as health care costs and availability continue to be an issue worldwide. Now reaching beyond just the individual healthcare concern, the potential for nutritional interventions to improve health status is also of heightened interest to public health professionals who are faced with an aging, obese, at-risk-of-diabetes population who may or may not have access to insurance. This textbook is the foundation of understanding how nutrition can be used to improve health status.

Not anything new for someone serious about nutrition- more an 'same old thinking' kind of textbook - Nothing on working with genes/genetics to help clients-Very very dry and uninteresting-

The book addresses the major lifestyle diseases afflicting today's society and the impact of nutrition in prevention. Good reference book.
