Description
In print for more than 50 years, KRAUSE'S FOOD & NUTRITION THERAPY has been recognized internationally as the most authoritative text
on nutrition. This new edition continues its tradition of providing the most comprehensive and up-to-date content available today. New
chapters on medical nutrition therapy for psychiatric disease and developmental disorders spotlight the advances made in these areas.
Extensive appendices, tables, illustrations, figures, and clinical insight boxes give practical hands-on procedures and clinical tools
with the most current information, including brand-new guidelines on food intake and physical activity, and highlight the inclusion of
the new food guide pyramid, MyPyramid, to use in everyday practice.
