Nutrition is a science. The complexity of a nutrient’s chemistry or a cell’s biology may seem overwhelming and confusing to some, but it doesn’t have to be. When scientific concepts are broken down step by step and facts are connected logically, the details become clear and easy to grasp.
Stories about overweight mice, analogies of lamps, and practical applications in grocery shopping help make the science of nutrition both meaningful and memorable. Since the first edition, the goal has been to reveal the fascination of science and share the excitement of nutrition with readers.
Insights gained from thousands of professors and over a million students who have engaged with this book over the years highlight a common desire—understanding nutrition to make informed, healthy choices in daily life. May this book serve that purpose well.
Understanding Nutrition presents the core information of an introductory nutrition course. The early chapters introduce the nutrients and their work in the body, and the later chapters apply that information to people’s lives—describing the role of foods and nutrients in energy balance and weight control, in physical activity, in the life cycle, in disease prevention, in food safety, and in hunger.
Prepare for a future career in nutrition with this bestselling text, designed to make the science of nutrition both relatable and meaningful. Understanding Nutrition simplifies complex topics through step-by-step explanations of key concepts and related processes.
Engaging illustrations and quick-reference nutrition tables help clarify even the most challenging material. Gaining a strong foundation in nutrition allows for informed, healthy choices in daily life while equipping professionals with the knowledge to share accurate information with others.
Because nutrition is an active science, staying current is paramount. Just as nutrition research continuously adds to and revises the accepted body of knowledge, this edition builds on the science of previous editions with the latest in nutrition research.
Much has changed in the world of nutrition and in our daily lives since the first edition. The number of foods has increased dramatically—even as we spend less time than ever in the kitchen preparing meals. The connections between diet and disease have become more apparent—and consumer interest in making smart health choices has followed.
More people are living longer and healthier lives. The science of nutrition has grown rapidly, with new understandings emerging daily. In this edition, as with all previous editions, every chapter has been revised to enhance learning by presenting current information accurately and attractively.
