Overview

Written for the upper-level undergrad or graduate level majors course, Advanced Human Nutrition, Third Edition provides an in-depth overview of the human body and details why nutrients are important from a biochemical, physiological, and molecular perspective. Through its writing style and numerous figures and illustrations, the Third Edition clearly outlines metabolism and the molecular functions of nutrients. A variety of pedagogical elements within the text, such as Here's Where You Have Been and Here's Where You Are Going, help clarify key points from the chapter and provide real-world examples that bring the content to life. New and Key Features of the Third Edition: * Includes new chapters on Fiber and Nutraceuricals and Functional Foods * Before You Go On sections asks students to reflect upon what they've just read, urging them to go back and re-read portions of the text if they do not readily grasp the material. * Special Feature boxes on focused topics add depth to the chapter and, in some cases, allow the student to view the application of basic science. * The end-of-chapter summary reiterates key points from the chapter and helps students prepare for future exams.
