Produktbeschreibung

This volume describes the importance of each macronutrient and micronutrient and their relation to the body's requirements when healing itself. Beginning with an overview of the fundamentals of nutrition, the book then analyzes the role of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, trace elements, and fat-and water-soluble vitamins. Specific challenges are considered with chapters on burns, cancer, infants, and the elderly. The book also includes information on pharmacologic manipulation, hormones, and future directions for research. Recommendations for the administration of each nutrient as well as conditions of deficiency and excess make this a practical handbook for a wide audience.
