Description
Nutritional Biochemistry takes a scientific approach to nutrition.
It covers not just "whats"--nutritional requirements--but why they are required for human health, by describing their function at the cellular and molecular level.
Each case study either leads to a subsequent discovery or enables an understanding of the physiological mechanisms of action of various nutrition-related processes.
The text is "picture-oriented" and the commentary is directed towards explaining graphs, figures, and tables. Nutritional Biochemistry includes a discussion of relevant aspects of physiology, food chemistry, toxicology, pediatrics, and public health.
Experimental techniques for nutritional science are emphasized, and primary data is included to help give students a feel for the nutrition literature.
This "real-world" approach provides students with a realistic view of the basis for much of our understanding of nutritional biochemistry.
