Beschreibung

For introductory Nutrition courses for Non-Majors.   Give students the tools to separate nutrition fact from fiction Nutrition & You provides students with a personalized approach to understanding nutrition, teaching them to become informed consumers of nutrition information. Joan Salge Blake is known for her engaging writing style, where she  addresses students directly, uses clear visuals to explain concepts, and captivates students with humor.
