- More about Advanced Nutrition: Macronutrients, Micronutrients, and Metabolism
Advanced Nutrition: Macronutrients, Micronutrients, and Metabolism is a comprehensive textbook for advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students studying human nutrition. It covers the chemistry, absorption, use, and excretion of essential nutrients, as well as nutrient-nutrient interactions and macro and micronutrients. It also emphasizes how nutrient-genetic interactions function with respect to disease development and includes a new chapter on the function of microorganisms in chronic degenerative diseases. Chapters address clinical conditions, updated information on the microbiota, and the neurodegenerative response to dietary variables. Case studies challenge students to integrate what they have learned to solve clinical cases.

The third edition of Advanced Nutrition: Macronutrients, Micronutrients, and Metabolism, a vital textbook for advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students studying human nutrition, has been thoroughly revised and updated. Drawing on interrelated sciences such as biochemistry, genetics, and physiology, this comprehensive resource provides a comprehensive understanding of nutrition science.
In this edition, the chemistry, absorption, utilization, and excretion of each essential nutrient are meticulously described, offering a thorough exploration of nutrient-nutrient interactions and both macro and micronutrients.
A significant emphasis is placed on understanding how nutrient-genetic interactions contribute to the development of diseases. The new edition includes updated descriptions of the roles of nutrients in the expression of genetic traits associated with various degenerative diseases. Additionally, a new chapter delves into the role of microorganisms in the maintenance and development of chronic degenerative conditions.
The book is organized into chapters that address clinical conditions such as obesity, starvation, hyperlipidemia, renal disease, and organ function. It includes updated information on the body's microbiota and the daily nutrient needs of humans across different stages of life. The material also reveals the neurodegenerative response to dietary variables with respect to regulating food intake.
Chapter summaries highlight key information, and case studies challenge students to apply their knowledge to solve clinical cases. With its extensive coverage, authoritative content, and engaging presentation, Advanced Nutrition: Macronutrients, Micronutrients, and Metabolism remains an indispensable resource for students and professionals in the field of nutrition.
