I hate this book. This is the worst book ever for a nutrition class or any class at that matter. The subjects don't seem to be in any order and it's almost impossible to find stuff.. Things that you would think was important you can't even find in the index! I'm just glad I made it though the class!!I'm takin my second degree I've seen my fair share of books and this one takes the cake. Please consider taking on a new nutritional book
Got it as a rental. It got to my house quick and worked well for my class.
This was a terrific book - so useful for all nutrition information and especially from the medical or nursing context.
The packaging was nice and the book itself was easy to read and very informative.
Book is in great condition and is very informative, interesting and relatable.
